Monthly payroll can be done very quickly in just a few steps:
Step 1 - Select Employees
Step 2 - Select Pay Item
Step 3 - View Summary
Step 4 - View Month Total
Step 1 - Select Employees
First, navigate to Payroll > Process Payrun, then follow these steps:
Select pay period: e.g. Year, Month, Processing Period (Whole Month, 1st Half of Month, etc.)
Select the employees to be paid in this payment batch
Select 'Next' to head to the next step in processing payroll
-----
Step 2 - Select Pay Item
Next is the step where we key in all pay items for processing - we sort the nature of pay items into 3 different tabs:
Monthly Payment/Deduction - these are recurring items that show up each time a new payment is created
Ad Hoc Payment/Deduction - these are irregular payments that will be reset whenever a new payment is created
Hourly/Daily Attendance - this is to record exact hours or days worked for staff, including overtime
**Note: At any point, you may add or remove employees from a payrun if needed. Naming a payrun is also helpful if you intend to create multiple payruns in a month.
-----
Step 3 - View Summary
In step 3, you'll be able to view a summary of all the amounts that have been keyed in for your employees so far in payroll.
Once you've checked through the amounts showing in the summary page, click on the next step (blue button, top right) to proceed to the Month Total page.
-----
Step 4 - View Month Total
The Month Total page is a summary page of the whole month's payments processed.
You can refer to the 'Net Payable' column for the amounts to be disbursed to employees for the month. The CPF Summary gives a breakdown of any statutory contributions calculated for your employees as well.
Alternatively, you can view a short video clip on how to process payment / payrun for the whole month below:
