Core Concepts
Understanding core HR concepts is essential before establishing salary schemes or running monthly payroll. These concepts explain how employee time attendance converts into verified payroll calculations and how statutory deductions comply with government labor regulations.
Gross-to-Net Payroll Calculation Flow
Monthly payroll computation follows a structured 5-step processing pipeline:

| Step | Milestone | Business Purpose | Applet Used |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Clock-In Log | Biometric terminal and mobile GPS attendance data collection | Admin Time Attendance Applet |
| 2 | Overtime Audit | Supervisor verifies hours and approves overtime pay multipliers | Admin Time Attendance Applet |
| 3 | Claims Sync | Approved employee expense reimbursements merged into payroll run | Claim Cycle Applet |
| 4 | Statutory Calc | Gross salary computed with statutory EPF, SOCSO, EIS & PCB tax withholdings | Payroll Engine |
| 5 | Disbursement | Electronic bank GIRO payout and General Ledger expense journal posting | Accounts Payable Integration |
