Upload Salary Structure for Employees

This help page demonstrates steps to upload salary structure for employees. A salary structure is a template that contains salary heads that may have formulas or dependencies among each other. Empxtrack supports multiple salary structures. A salary break-up, on the other hand, is the assignment of a salary structure to employees with specific values for each head. The assignment is applicable of a specific date and this date is used to calculate arrears automatically (if applicable). In the employee database, employees may or may not be assigned a salary structure.

The upload salary structure functionality allows you to upload the salary breakup and salary structure details of all the employees in one go. This functionality is useful when you need to initialize the Empxtrack system for the first time to run payroll to calculate salaries thereafter. You can even upload new salary structure for employees post appraisal or mass salary increment.
