Record the wage scale for an employee

You record the salary scale, the scale and the step of the employee.

If you use wage scales, you need to record the following data for the employee:

  • Contract line

    You record the next period in which you want to assign a new periodic increase and the frequency with which this must happen (for example, once per 12 months). Profit Payroll uses this information in the automatic assignment of periodic increases.

    If you do not use Profit Payroll to process the wages of the employee, you can record this data as information.

  • Salary line

Record wage scale for employee:

  1. Go to: HR / Employee / Employee.
  2. Open the properties of the employee.
  3. Go to the tab: Contract.
    1. Click on: New.
    2. Enter the period of the next periodic increase in Period number periodic.

      Profit automatically determines the period number and displays it in Period next increase (format yyyypp).

    3. In Repeat after (periods), enter after how many periods the employee is given a new periodic increase.

      If you entered a value for Period number periodic, you must also enter a value for Repeat after (periods).

      More information about the way periodic increases work.

  4. Go to the tab: Salary.

    Change the line that was created as a result of the new contract line or add a new salary line if you have not added a new contract line.

    1. Open the properties of the salary.
    2. Select Wage scale type and Wage scale.

      You can only select wage scales that correspond with the selected Period table.

    3. Select the step in the wage scale.

      For a salary based on age you can only select the step that corresponds to the age.

      The step depends on the age the relevant employee has reached on the start date of this salary line (that is, not the age reached on the current date). If, because of his age, the employee still falls in an age step, then only this step is displayed. If an employee falls outside the age steps, the service year steps appear.

      If you cannot select the step, make sure that the steps have been added to the selected wage scale. Also check the validity period of the wage scale.

    4. If required, enter an allowance.

      If you want to record a percentage, select the Surcharge (%) check box.

    5. Enter a relative salary position in RSP. If you enter a salary, Profit calculates the relative salary position automatically.

      This is a salary position percentage with regard to the maximum of the min/max wage scale. If you enter a salary, Profit calculates the relative salary position. The formula for this is ‘(salary / maximum) * 100'.

    6. Click on: OK.
