New Payroll supplement based on Contract rules

Under Settings > Payroll > Payroll supplement > Create you will now find a new supplement type called Contract rules supplement.

With the Contract rules supplement, you can set a fixed rate or a percentage based on your employee's individual wage/salary that should be paid out when they work more hours than they are contracted to work.

This supplement can be applied to all employees that have been assigned a Contract rule.

Read more about how to set up Contract rules supplements.

Renaming in the Absence module

We have renamed some options in the Absence module:

  • Account types have been renamed Account templates

    • Location: Settings > Absence, Overtime, Vacation > Account templates

  • The action to Create absence accounts for employees has been renamed Apply absence account template to employees

    • Location: Schedule > Absence accounts > Apply template

This update brings no changes to the functionality, it’s only the text that is updated to better reflect the functionality and improve the experience of setting up Absence accounts for your employees.

Coming soon: Renaming Monthly salary to Salary

From People > Employees > Edit employee, you can assign a Monthly salary to your employees who should receive a fixed amount of pay (default period: month). This will soon be renamed Salary.

This update brings no changes to the functionality, it’s only the text that is updated. The default pay period for the Salary is still monthly, so nothing changes in your current setup.
