Percentage Payments (NP-633)
A new screen under Pay > Payments (Percentage) has been added. This screen allows payments as a percentage of other payments to be configured.
Creating a percentage payment requires the pay element to be marked as a percentage pay element on the Company > Pay Elements screen. A new checkbox has been added to payment elements to configure this:
Once a pay element has been marked as a percentage pay element, pay elements can be assigned to the percentage pay element. The assigned elements are the elements of payments that will be used to calculate the additional pay from the percentage payment.
With a percentage pay element configured, a percentage payment can be added on the Pay > Payments (Percentage) screen. The percentage of the payment is the percentage amount of payments of the assigned elements which will be added on to the total pay.
The additional amount from the percentage payment can be seen on the payslip under the name of the percentage pay element.
SFTP Payslip Export (NP-666)
A new screen under Processing > External Export has been added. This screen allows all employee PDF payslips for a specified payroll and pay period to be exported to an external SFTP server.
Payslips can be exported in two different ways:
- Payroll Level - A single PDF file will be exported containing all the payslips for the payroll.
- Employee Level - Each payslip will be contained inside their own PDF. There will be a PDF file per payslip.
Further options including adding a manifest summary CSV file containing details about the export or zipping up the contents of the export are also available.
A naming convention can be created to customise the file names of the exported payslips. File names can be built up using a combination of fields including Payroll No, Pay Period, Pay Date, Employee No and more.
Payslips can be exported for any current or prior period.
A history of exports can be found under Export History on the External Export screen.
Further information can be found in the External Export Help document.
