      Payroll items - Additions

      Payroll Addition items mean additional income on top of the employee's gross pay salary.
      Swingvy provides two options in creating the list of your payroll items - Additions.

      1. Default Addition

      Swingvy adds the most common (frequently used) Addition payroll items for you.

      Note: 

      This standard Addition item is created by default and you are not allowed to edit them.


      Create your own customised Additions items if necessary. To make further changes to a payroll item, scroll down to No 2 - Customised Additions items to learn how.

      However, these default Addition items can be edited in two circumstances:

      • Updating the basic amount of additional items
      • Select employee for monthly recurrence 

      2. Customised Addition items

      Select this option only when you need to set up your customised Additions items.

      Step 1 - Enter the new Addition name

      Step 2 - If the Addition is unit base, select the checkbox and enter the per-unit amount

      Step 3: If the addition is proratable for the new joiner/resignee, tick the box accordingly.
