What this section is
Payroll builds salary runs for a date period. Create a run (optional Generate payslips now) → draft status with run # PAY-yymmdd-###. Each payslip uses employee basic salary, approved overtime in the period (hourly from basic/208 × multiplier, often 1.5×), and advance recovery (up to 25% of basic against oldest open advances). Deductions field starts at 0 — PF/ESI/TDS are not auto-computed here (statutory IDs live on Employees). Finalize locks the run. Pay staff via your bank/NEFT process outside or alongside this register.
In the owner dashboard
Open Payroll management under Listing / Property after you claim a stay. Same vocabulary as Help Academy.

Do this
Step-by-step
-
Create the run
People → Payroll → new run: period start/end, notes, generate payslips → draft PAY-…
India example: 1–30 Sep · generate on · 22 slips. -
Review slips
Open the run. Check basic, OT pay, deductions, advance recovery, net per employee. Fix masters / OT / advances, then regenerate only if your process allows before finalize.
India example: Ananya · basic + OT − ₹1,250 advance · net shown. -
Finalize
Confirm Finalize when numbers are right — locks totals. Export/pay via bank as your SOP requires.
India example: Finalized · net ₹4.2L · NEFT batch same day.
Tips
Approve overtime and post advance recoveries before generating slips. · PF/ESI amounts (if you withhold) may need a manual process / Finance — this engine does not auto-deduct them.
Common mistakes
Finalizing with wrong basics still on Employees — you will rework the whole month.
