2. Like Employee : select the name of the employee whose structure has to be duplicated
   

There are two sections to the salary structure

1. Earnings – here all the heads which fall under Month and Annual Taxable / Tax Free categories are to be selected here
2. Deductions –  Here you can select any custom head for deduction which is not statutory in nature

You can edit or delete heads and also recreate structure until payroll has not been run for the employee, once payroll has been run then salary increment process has to be followed to make modifications in salary.
