Set Up the Display of Salary Deduction for Absences

💬 Note

Payroll is generated by approving the Timesheets. The system computes Pay based on the number of Days Worked.

By Default:

  • When an employee is Absent, the system deducts the amount directly from the Salary.
  • The Deduction is not displayed separately in the Deductions section.

If you would like the Absence Deduction to appear as a separate line item under Deduction in Payroll, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to Preferences. 
  2. Select Account.

  3. Click Settings.

  4. Tick the Show Deduction checkbox under Deduct Absence From Salary.

  5. Navigate to Preferences.
  6. Select Payroll.

  7. Click Deductions.

  8. The system will display a Deduction Name: Absence Deduction.

  9. You may configure the following on statutory contribution:
    1. Taxable
    2. SOCSO
    3. EIS
    4. EPF

    5. HRDF

  10. When Show Deduction is enabled:

    1. The employee's salary will be shown according to the Employment Contract.

    2. Absence and Unpaid Leave amounts will appear separately under the Deduction section.

    3. You can click the Absence field to view:
      1. Number of Absent days in the Payroll period.

      2. Number of Unpaid Leave days in the Payroll period.



⚠️ Caution:

  • The Absence Deduction item cannot be deleted from the system.
  • If you do not want the Deduction to be displayed separately:
    • Go to Preferences - > Select Account -> Click Settings -> Untick the Show Deduction checkbox under Deduct Absence From Salary
    • When disabled:
      • The Deduction will not be shown in Payroll calculation, the Salary will be deducted accordingly.
      • The Absence Deduction will not appear in the Deduction section in the Payroll.
