How payroll setup works
Payroll setup is made up of:
Employee pay details
Pay templates
Allowances and additional payments
Timesheets and worked hours
These all work together to calculate final pay totals.

They can include:
Base rates
Overtime rules
Weekend or public holiday rates
Allowances
Templates can be assigned to one or multiple employees.
Add allowances
