Creation of Payroll Masters using TallyPrime

As discussed in the above section Pay components are computed based on the Payroll Units.

Therefore, create the following Payroll masters in TallyPrime:

  1. Payroll Units
  2. Attendance / Production Types

1. Payroll Units

A payroll unit refers to a unit of measurement based on which pay heads are calculated. Payroll units can be classified into two types viz., Simple Payroll Units and Compound Payroll Units. Simple Payroll Units refer to individual units such as Day, Week, Month, Hours, Pcs, Box, Nos etc., Whereas, Compound Payroll Units refer to Units which are combination of two simple units, i.e., an Hour of 60 Minutes, Month of 26 days, Day of 8 Hrs.

Usually, the Pay components are computed based on a single or compound payroll units. Sometimes an employee may be paid on the basis of a combination of two or more units. For example, an employee is paid a regular salary and an hourly rate for the overtime hours. In this case, the two likely units are Calendar Month and Hours. In TallyPrime, you can create simple as well as compound units.

By default, TallyPrime contains four pre-set Calculation Periods – Days, Fortnights, Months & Weeks.
