2. Pending for Updation

Whenever a new employee joins the company and his status is updated as joined by HR Manager an alert will come to you and on this tab the record will be visible. Records in the first table of this tab have some details missing or have some pending approvals. Payroll for these records cannot be run unless the pending point is cleared.


Activities you can do from this tab are -
1. Update the first payroll month - a default month is shown based on the date of joining, but it can be changed. See the "Apr-2020" highlighted section above. When you click on the month hyperlink a popup will open up as shown below -

Please note if you make first payroll month as one month after the month of joining then there are two constraints
a) Salary structure of the employee is created from the 1st of the first payroll month. In the above example, if date of joining is 24th March and we want to keep the first payroll month as April then salary for 7 days of March can be paid in April payroll as arrears but the salary structure will be created from 1-April in the system. Which means that if the salary is changed later with effect from 1-Apr system will not automatically correct the amount which was paid for 7 days of March.
b) Any LWP which is updated for March will not be considered in Payroll

2. Select Retainer category - this is applicable for only India payroll. There are three types of categories, each with a different TDS
- Professional : TDS is deducted @10% under section 194J if aggregate payment in a financial year exceeds or will exceed INR 30,000
- Contractor Individual : TDS is deducted @1% under section 194C for Individual or HUF
- Contractor Other : TDS is deducted at 2% under section 194C for other categories
Under section 194C TDS is deducted if payment > INR 30,000 in one transaction or if the aggregate payment exceeds or will exceed INR 100,000. Please refer to the Income Tax laws for more understanding. If Retainer category is not activated then this column is not visible.

Note - If PAN Number is not available then TDS will be deducted @20% even for Retainers.

By default "Professional" retainer category is shown you can change it by clicking on the label.

3. Excluding employees from payroll - If you do not want to run payroll for a new joiner you can use the "Exclude" button to move their records to the Excluded table. You can bring these records back using the "Include" button.


4. Editing employee record - Use the Edit button to open the employee's record to update other details. You might not get the Edit button for a new record if the first payroll month / retainer category has not been updated. Click on the "Submit" button below the table to submit the default values of first payroll month and retainer category which are visible and then you will get the Edit button.
