Calculation bases

A calculation basis is a container in which different wage components are included. The sum of the value of these wage components determines the ultimate value of the calculation basis.

Description

If a wage component is included in a calculation basis, then Profit adds it to the calculation basis if it is a payment component and subtracts if it is a deduction component.

Example:

Profit has a pension calculation basis. The Salaris wage component is included in this calculation basis. The WW premie wage component is a deduction component and is therefore deducted.

Year-dependent contributions to the calculation basis

You can make the contribution of your own wage components year-dependent. As a result you do not need to add a new calculation basis when you change the contribution each year.

Example:

For the pension scheme you use your customised wage components. Due to a change in the CLA, overtime hours count towards the calculation of the pension basis effective from 2012.

By letting the overtime hours wage components contribute on a year-dependent basis to the pension basis, you specify that the overtime hours count towards the calculation of the pension basis effective from 2012. Profit does not take the contribution of overtime hours into account for prior years.

We specify the year-dependent contributions for the wage components supplied with the software.

Procedure

• View calculation bases from the CLA

  For each calculation basis, the CLA contains the wage components that are included in the calculation basis and the wage components that make use of the calculation basis.

• View calculation bases from the wage component

  A wage component can retrieve the value of a calculation basis and use it in its calculation rule or include it in a calculation basis.
