Points to consider while configuring PT for a particular state laws
- Incase of employees working in different locations in various states, the PT slab will be have to configured as per each State's laws.
- In such cases, where the employee's PT needs to be calculated across different states, the application will use PT Lookup for the appropriate location
- Apart from the regular PT component, under Deductions Items, you will have to create a component as State's name PT and assign relevant calculation fields.
- As of now three calculation fields will have to be created :
- Prorate PT - in this case, the PT will be calculated on monthly basis.
- PT - this is half yearly calculation of PT.
- Accumulated Gross - this will calculate the PT for 6 months on the salary component to which PT has been assigned. For example: Tax-Basic.
