Add wage components to an employee

The preference is for you to set up the wage components at the highest possible level, since this results in the least possible maintenance. However, sometimes a regulation applies to a specific employee. In such instances you must add a wage component to an employee.

Under certain conditions you can also enter a deviating value for a parameter that is linked to a salary table.

All values that you record are time-dependent. This means that at a minimum a start date must be entered and that in the event of changes a new value is added with a new start date as a result of which the end date of the previous value is automatically entered by Profit.

By recording time-dependent values, you save the history of these values and you can redo calculations made in the past. Furthermore, you can immediately record arrangements that only apply for a certain period of time by specifying the start as well as end dates. This means that when its term expires you no longer need to concern yourself with that arrangement.

You can import fixed wage entries by selecting .

Incidental entries can be added by selecting HR / Payroll / Enter wage entry.

Note:

Each wage component has a comment in which the operation of the wage component is explained. Always take a look at this explanation on the Comment tab in the properties of the wage component in the CLA. If you do not have the wage component available, first activate it.

To add a wage component:

1. Go to: HR / Employee / Employee.
2. Open the properties of the employee.
3. Go to the tab: Wage component.

   Profit CLAs are supplied with a default configuration that is maintained by AFAS. To make a distinction between the default configuration and your own configuration, you see your own wage components in a different colour (purple).

4. Click on: New.

   You can only add wage components that have been activated in the CLA to employees.

   For each wage component, you specify whether Profit will display it for the employee.

5. Open the view:
   • WC changeable per employee

     This view displays the wage components that can be added on the basis of the employee’s current or future CLA. Wage components that have already been changed at the employee’s level are not shown. In addition, only those wage components that are permitted to be maintained at the employee level are displayed.

   • WC changeable per employee (all CLAs)

     Similar to the above view, but the wage components from the employee’s CLAs that have already expired are also displayed.

6. Select the wage component.

   Note:

   A wage component supplied by AFAS contains a root number. When the root number is used as a filter, only the root number’s digits should be entered. For example, for the root number 100.000.500 you enter 100000500 in the quick filter.

7. Click on: Finish.

   Profit displays a new window with the parameters of the wage component to be added.

   In the Mut. bij mdw., Mut. bij wg. and Chng. with CLA columns you will find the levels at which the parameter can be changed.

8. Open the parameter's properties.
   1. Click on: New.
   2. Enter the start date, end date and value. Entering an end date is not mandatory.

      For a start date after the first day of the period you can execute a weighted calculation.

   3. Select the employment for which you want to apply the parameter. This is only available if you have activated Multiple employments.

      If you select Distribute across all employments, Profit checks whether the employee has an employment distribution on the Main employment tab. If the employee has an employment distribution, Profit uses this for the distribution of the values of the parameter. If the employee does not have an employment distribution, Profit uses the master data parameter ‘Uit te betalen periode salaris’ to distribute the values of the parameter. This master data parameter contains a part-time salary that Profit determines in accordance with the salary line and timetable of the employee. The parameter has no value when the part-time percentage is 0% (0 hours timetable) or if there is no salary. In this situation, the relevant employment is not included in the distribution.

      For Apply to main employment, Profit only assigns the value to the main employment.

      If you want to apply a value to the labour relation, you selectApply to all employments.

   4. Click on: Finish.
   5. Click on: OK.

      In the view, you see the 'Berekenen Ja/Nee' parameter with 'Nee' as the value. To ensure that Profit includes the value of this wage component in the salary processing, you change the value of the parameter.

   6. Open the properties of the 'Berekenen Ja/Nee' parameter.
   7. Click on: New.
   8. Enter 1 August of the current year in Start date.
   9. Select Apply to all employments for Application.
   10. Select the Apply check box.

       This changes the value to 'Ja'.

   11. Click on: Finish.
   12. Click on: OK.

       If the current date is before the start date of the new parameter value, you do not see the new parameter value in the view.

   Example:

   The current date is 25 March. The new parameter value has 1 August as start date. In the view with the parameter value you see the parameter value that is valid through 31 July.

9. Click on: OK.
