Paying at the current rate allows employers to set a fixed salary for employees. Employers can easily update the salary amount, currency, and payment mode by accessing the employee's profile, ensuring smooth payroll management.


Alternatively, for employees with a fixed salary amount, employers should access the 'Compensation' section of the employee profile to enter the correct currency exchange rate, exact salary amount, and payment frequency. Simply select the employee and input the pay period to complete the process. See the detailed instruction about Extra Compensation.


- Pay Any Amount

On the other hand, paying by any amount allows employers to set a flexible payment. For instance, they can use their own currency exchange rate, enter a custom amount, or combine salary and expenses into a single invoice, utilizing the 'any amount' function.


Employers can configure a single payment to include either a specific amount or a combination of salary and expenses. To do this, select the employee, enter the total payment amount, and set the pay period.


NOTE: You can add extra payments for employees by selecting the employee and clicking "Edit" in the Additional Pay section. Click "New Additional Payment," choose the Payment Type, and enter the necessary details. Remember to save your changes.

3. Save Your Changes


After verifying the payment information, save the transaction to complete the payment process. This step finalizes the payment and updates your records.
