Overview

A payroll deduction occurs when you remove funds from an employee's pay before they receive their pay cheque. Legislation mandates some deductions, and some are because of a private agreement between an employer and an employee.

The Pay Run Inclusions Deduction feature allows you to set up an automated employee deduction where you can choose the category, the date the inclusion starts and ends on, and the amount. You can also use this feature to edit any data entered previously and delete a record that is no longer required.

For information on how best to process novated lease payments, please refer to your accountant.

So you have now set up a deduction pay run inclusion and you are now wondering what next can I do. There are two recommendations I would make on this front and they are:

Payroll Platform: Set Up and Manage an Employee's Expense Pay Run Inclusion This feature allows you to set up an automated expense where you can choose the category, the date the inclusion starts on, and the expense amount.
Payroll Platform: Split Employee Earnings by Location This feature allows you to separate earnings by region for your organisation's auto-paid salaried employees.
