Setting up each person's pay and bank details

Enter each person's basic pay, recurring allowances, how they are paid and their EPF member number, and keep a history of raises.

Who can do this: Changing pay needs manage payroll (TenantAdmin by default). With see payroll only, you can view pay with the bank account masked.

Set up pay

Amounts are in your business's base currency.

  1. Go to People → Payroll → People. Anyone without pay shows Not set up.
  2. Press Set up pay on the person.
  3. Enter Applies from: the date this pay starts.
  4. Under Paid, choose Monthly or Daily wage, then enter the Basic salary a month or the Wage a day.
  5. Under Recurring allowances, enter any amount the person gets every month.
  6. Under Payment, choose Paid by: Bank transfer or Cash.
  7. Enter the EPF member number from the person's EPF membership. Leave it empty until it is issued.
  8. For a bank transfer, enter the Bank, the 4-digit Bank code (for example 7010), the 3-digit Branch code, the Account number and the Name on the account.
  9. Add a Note if you like and press Save pay.

Raises and corrections

Press Change pay on the person. To give a raise, enter the new amount with a new Applies from date: the old pay stays in the Pay history. To correct a mistake, keep the same date: the entry is replaced.

The Pay history at the bottom of the dialog lists every change.

Bank account numbers

Bank account numbers are shown masked. When you change someone's pay and they are paid by bank, type the whole account number again to keep bank payment.

If a person is paid in cash, no bank details are kept.

A run includes only people with pay set up, so check the People tab for Not set up before you start a month.
