By default, when configuring the locations for your organisation, you will have one primary location and can then create sub-locations under the primary location. However, there may be scenarios where your organisation requires additional top level locations. If this is the case, you can enable this feature via the Advanced Settings feature.
As an organisation, you may use other external software that integrates with your payroll platform via an API. To make sure the correct mapping between employees and your payroll settings, you can add an external ID against a chosen payroll feature, such as deduction categories or work types. If this is the case, you can enable this feature via the Advanced Settings feature.
