Pay supplements

Employers may wish to provide their employees with additional compensation beyond their regular salary. To facilitate this on our platform, it is crucial to understand the functionality of pay supplements and additional pay items. This ensures that your employees receive their extra compensation smoothly and on time.

What are Pay Supplements?

Employees may receive additional monetary compensation for their regular base/gross salary. This additional compensation is a pay supplement and can take various forms, including sales commissions, allowances, and bonuses.

The Pay Supplements module on our platform allows you, as an employer, to add and track these additional payments. You can choose from different pay supplement options to best describe the compensation you are providing.

Learn how to Add pay supplements for your employees.

Tabs in the Pay supplements section

There are four tabs in the pay supplements section:

Action Pending tab

The pending tab shows pay supplements that are pending from the employer. The employer needs to add/modify variable components for successful payroll processing in a given cycle. These variable components are system-generated based on the employee's contractual details.

Queued tab

Pay supplements will move to Processing after the cutoff date of their respective cycles.

Processing tab

The processing tab shows the pay supplements with the amount entered by the employer and submitted. It is now on Multiplier to process the amount as per the defined payment dates.

Completed tab

The completed tab shows the pay supplements that have been paid or revoked.
