# Salary And Payroll
|
||
|
||
Salary is a fixed amount of money or compensation paid to an employee by an employer in return for the work performed .
|
||
|
||
Payroll is the administration of financial records of employees' salaries, wages, bonuses, net pay, and deductions.
|
||
|
||
To process Payroll in ERPNext,
|
||
|
||
1. Create Salary Structures for all Employees.
|
||
2. Generate Salary Slips via [Payroll Entry](/docs/user/manual/en/human-resources/payroll-entry.html).
|
||
3. Book the Salary in your Accounts.
|
||
|
||
### Salary Structure
|
||
|
||
The Salary Structure represents how Salaries are calculated based on Earnings
|
||
and Deductions.
|
||
|
||
Salary structures are used to help organizations:
|
||
1. Maintain pay levels that are competitive with the external labor market,
|
||
2. Maintain internal pay relationships among jobs,
|
||
3. Recognize and reward differences in the level of responsibility, skill, and performance, and manage pay expenditures.
|
||
|
||
The usual components of the salary structure (in India) include:
|
||
|
||
__Basic Salary:__ It is the taxable base income and generally not more than 40% of CTC.
|
||
|
||
__House Rent Allowance:__ The HRA constitutes 40 to 50% of the basic salary.
|
||
|
||
__Special Allowances:__ Makes up for the remainder part of the salary, mostly smaller than the basic salary which is completely taxable.
|
||
|
||
__Leave Travel Allowance:__ The non-taxable amount paid by the employer to the employee for vacation/trips with family within India.
|
||
|
||
__Gratuity:__ It is basically a lump sum amount paid by the employer when the employee resigns from the organization or retires.
|
||
|
||
__PF:__ Fund collected during emergency or old age. 12% of the basic salary is automatically deducted and goes to the employee provident fund.
|
||
|
||
__Medical Allowance:__ The employer pays the employee for the medical expenditures incurred. It is tax-free up to Rs.15,000.
|
||
|
||
__Bonus:__ Taxable part of the CTC, usually a once a year lump sum amount, given to the employee based on the individual’s as well as the organizational performance for the year.
|
||
|
||
__Employee Stock Options:__ ESOPS are Free/discounted shares given by the company to the employees. This is done to primarily increase employee retention.

||
|
||
* Select the Employees and enter Base (which is base salary or CTC) and Variable (if applicable)

### Salary Slip Based on Timesheet

||
|
||
Salary Slip based on Timesheet is applicable if you have timesheet based payroll system
|
||

||
* Select the salary component and enter Hour Rate (Note: This salary component gets added to earnings in Salary Slip)
|
||
|
||
### Earnings and Deductions in Salary Structure
|
||
|
||
In the “Earnings” and “Deductions” tables, you can calculate the values of Salary Components based on,
|
||
|
||
* Condition and Formula
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
* Select Mode of Payment and Payment Account for the Salary Slips which will be generated using this Salary Structure
|
||
|
||
Save the Salary Structure.
|
||
|
||
In conditions and formulas,
|
||
|
||
* Use field "base" for using base salary of the Employee
|
||
* Use Salary Component abbreviations. For example: BS for Basic Salary
|
||
* Use field name for employee details. For example: Employment Type for employment_type
|
||
|
||
### Leave Without Pay (LWP)
|
||
|
||
Leave Without Pay (LWP) happens when an Employee runs out of allocated leaves
|
||
or takes a leave without an approval (via Leave Application). If you want
|
||
ERPNext to automatically deduct salary in case of LWP, then you must check on
|
||
the “Apply LWP” column in the Earning Type and Deduction Type masters. The
|
||
amount of pay cut is the proportion of LWP days divided by the total working
|
||
days for the month (based on the Holiday List).
|
||
|
||
If you don’t want ERPNext to manage LWP, just don’t click on LWP in any of the
|
||
Earning Types and Deduction Types.

|
||
### Creating Salary Slips
|
||
|
||
Once the Salary Structure is created, you can make a salary slip from the same
|
||
form or you can process your payroll for the month using Payroll Entry.
|
||
|
||
To create a new Salary Slip go to:
|
||
|
||
> Human Resources > Setup > Salary Slip > New Salary Slip
