Calculation Type

The Type of calculation option field contains 3 selection fields:

positive

negative

calculated

This setting is used to check whether the amount has been entered with the correct sign during salary types assignment.

The ‘positive’ option is usually assigned to the allowance type and the ‘negative’ option to the deduction type.

The ‘calculated’ option is assigned to employee and employer deductions. This covers all salary types that are not calculated and controlled manually but automatically. In the case of manual corrections of incorrectly recorded or calculated benefits, these salary types can be temporarily set to positive or negative for manual recording. Please set it back to calculated after the correction has been made.
