In this article the process for creating salary in bulk for new joiners is explained. Refer to article on "Creating salary for single employee" to understand how salary for one employee can be created or modified.
1. Managing Templates
In first tab you should create salary templates which can be subsequently used for employee salary creation. A template is a collection of heads but additional heads can be added manually in employee's salary even if they are not in the template.
To create a new template you can use the Create Template button. Templates should be used to standardize salary structures based on the salary levels. For higher salaries you can add more heads and for lower salaries you can have lesser number of heads.
2. Salary Structure Creation
In this grid all employee whose salary has not been created will be listed. You can create salary structure for them.

finalized
2. You can review the structures under approval on the fourth tab "Under Approval"

Salary structure cannot be deleted if payroll has been subsequently processed, the status will change to "In Use".
