Payroll and advances

Work salaries out from actual hours worked, with deductions for lateness, absences and advances, then review, adjust and pay.

On this page

The Payroll page works out each employee's salary from their actual hours worked instead of an estimate.

Setting up the pay

For each employee you set their rate (monthly or hourly) from the payroll page. It needs the "Manage payroll" permission.

Advances

Money given before a salary is recorded as an advance and is taken back from the next salaries until it is repaid. An advance recorded by mistake is cancelled and stays in the record.

Working out the month's salaries

  1. Choose the month and press Calculate.
  2. Dawak collects from check-ins and check-outs and the shift schedule: hours worked, lateness, absences and the advance still owed.
  3. Each employee gets a line: basic, deductions, net.

If the month is not over yet, the numbers are "so far".

Reviewing and adjusting

  • Open any line and change the deduction (it cannot be more than the calculated one) or add a bonus with a note.
  • Approve the line after reviewing it. You can take the approval back to change it.

Paying

When you pay, the month is locked and every salary is recorded in Expenses under "salaries", so it enters the reports automatically.

Make sure attendance is recorded well before calculating, as it is the basis of the salary.
