The top section shows which employee and period this salary covers:
| Field | Description |

| Month | The month and year this salary record covers |

Salary Components¶
This section displays the full salary breakdown:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| SKU | Auto-generated unique identifier for this salary record (read-only) |
| Salary | Salary rate for this period; 0 uses the employee's default salary rate |
| Salary Units | Number of workdays or work hours used to calculate the salary |

| Bonus | Bonus amount in Tk added to the base salary |

Net Salary Calculation
Net Salary is calculated automatically as: (Salary × Salary Units) + Overtime + Bonus − Deductions. It updates in real time whenever any component is changed.

Deleting a Salary Record¶

Restricted Action
Deleting a salary record is permanent. Only delete records that were created in error and have not been linked to any payout or financial transaction. Once a salary has been marked as Paid or linked to related records, deletion may not be permitted. Contact your system administrator if a linked salary record needs to be removed.
Tips and Common Issues¶
- Net Salary updates automatically — It recalculates in real time whenever Salary, Salary Units, Overtime, Bonus, or Deductions are changed
- Salary Units represent workdays or hours — Enter the correct number based on the employee's salary type (Monthly or Hourly)
- Default salary applies when Salary is 0 — The system uses the rate set on the employee's profile
- Toggle Is Paid only when payment is confirmed — Setting Is Paid without a Payment Date may cause payroll reporting inconsistencies
- Deductions reduce Net Salary — Enter deductions carefully as they directly reduce the employee's final payable amount
- Always save before leaving — Use the Save button at the bottom of the page; unsaved changes will be lost
- History button — Use the History button in the top-right corner to review all changes made to this salary record and who made them
