Summary: This help guide describes how to bring the number of working days to the payslip. The guide explains how to create a new salary type, define its settings, attach the salary type to the salary model, and add the correct calculation formula based either on Working hours entries or on weekdays.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Creating a salary type
The number of working days is obtained for the payslip by following the actions in this help guide. First, create a new salary type named "Working days".
Open Pay > Payroll > Salary model management > Company-specific salary types > add new salary type.
Create the salary type according to the example in the image below:
Set Name: Working days
Set Group: Salaries and allowances
Set Payslip group: Not considered
Set Source: User's formula
Leave Unit unselected
Leave Income type unselected
Leave Shown in reports unselected
Select Included in calculation by default
Save
Select "User's formula" as the source of the salary type if the value of the salary type is formed by a calculation formula.
Leave the "Shown in reports" setting unselected so that the information of the "Working days" salary type appears on the payslip without the € symbol and the program automatically brings the working days of the calendar month to the payslip. If necessary, edit the working days manually on the payslip row.
Attaching the salary type to the salary model
Next, attach the created salary type to the desired salary model:
Open Pay > Payroll > Salary model management > select salary model > Formulas.
Select "Attach salary type to salary model".
Find the "Working days" salary type in the dropdown menu.
Select "Attach".
Adding the calculation formula
Add a formula to the salary type if working hours are recorded in the Working hours section in the company:
Add a new row using the green plus sign.
Select "Pay period calendar information" from the dropdown menu.
Select "Working days during the pay period".
If the Working hours section is not in use, instead of selecting the formula "Working days during the pay period", select "Weekdays during the pay period". If working hours are not marked in the Working hours section on a daily basis, the program does not know the actual number of working days. In this case, use the number of weekdays in the pay period.
Thus, working days will automatically appear on the payslip either according to the weekdays of the pay period or according to the entries recorded in the Working hours section.
Frequently asked questions
How do I get the number of working days to appear on the payslip without the € symbol?
Leave the "Shown in reports" option unselected in the salary type settings.
Which source should I select for the salary type?
Select "User's formula" as the source of the salary type, because the value of the salary type is formed by a calculation formula.
Which calculation formula should I use if the Working hours section is not in use in our company?
In that case, select the formula "Weekdays during the pay period". The program calculates the working days based on the number of weekdays in the pay period, because daily entries are not available.
