How do I update the number of days of salary to be paid to an employee?#

Information on what data is to be entered#

  1. All information regarding the number of Days worked, number of Days Absent, etc. is available as separate components under the "Employee Workdays" component. (see box 4)
  2. By default the application assumes that an employee has worked for the entire month. (see box 1)
  3. The number of days in the month is always equivalent to the calendar days. For e.g. If you are processing for February, then the total days worked will be 28. If you processing for April it will be 30 and if you are processing for January, it will be 31. (see box 2)
  4. You will need to input the number of days of Absence for an employee. The component is called as "LOP" which stands for "Loss of Pay". (see box 3). Based on this, the days for which an employee is paid will be reduced.
  5. The total number of days for which salary is paid is calculated "Days In Month" minus "LOP". This is stored in the component "Emp Effective Workdays". (see box 1)
This configuration is not suitable for employees with daily wages. Please refer to How to configure daily wages for additional information on how to set this up.
