Open interactive lesson and quizWhat you will learn
- Use the work calendar to check leave, holidays and logged shifts
- Apply business-defined country pay rules and employee contribution elections
- Review support allowances in a payroll draft before release
Your business has employees in different countries and needs a consistent way to review leave, support shifts and monthly gross-to-net pay without assuming a statutory rate.
Lesson 1
Read the calendar before submitting support
The employee portal and People workspace show submitted time, leave and business holidays in a month calendar. Choose a current or past unlocked date to prefill a time entry. Future time is rejected in the business timezone, including API submissions. Submitted entries can be corrected only when policy permits; rejected entries may be corrected within the open period. Approved entries and finalized payroll remain protected. Enter login, logout and unpaid breaks; a duration alone is insufficient for a new entry. Auto uses the holiday and weekend calendar and applies the configured rate. Explicit Overtime creates a separate weekday entry. Weekend support and Holiday support must match the date. Overlapping time ranges are rejected. A manager or authorized HR reviewer approves support before it contributes to a draft payroll run.
Lesson 2
Configure gross pay without assuming tax law
Country pay rules are entered by the business. The three earnings shares must sum to 100%. The retirement or PF contribution has a default, employee minimum and maximum, and either Base or Gross as its basis. Withholding and other deductions are separate percentages of gross. Only employees on Percentage of gross mode use the rule; existing fixed profiles keep their amounts. The employee can elect an allowed contribution rate for a future pay month. Drafts are recalculated after a policy or election change, but approved and recorded statements remain fixed. These entries do not calculate legal liability or issue payments; review rates with a qualified local payroll adviser.
Practice · Check one employee pay month
- In People → Time & leave, configure a standard day and support rates, then add a business holiday.
- Log a regular shift and a separate overtime or weekend support entry using login and logout times. Review and approve each entry.
- In Payroll, configure a country rule whose base, housing and other earnings shares total 100%, then select Percentage of gross for a sample employee.
- Have the sample employee elect a permitted contribution percentage in the portal. Create a draft run, inspect support, deductions and net pay, and compare it with the calendar.
