The Employee Benefits feature allows you to assign company allowances. You can record details such as the benefit name, salary, start and end dates, team, and any relevant comments. Before assigning a benefit to an employee, you​ will need to create the benefit categories. Please keep in mind the Benefits (allowances) data does not sync through to your payroll classic platform. However, we will notify your payroll admin when you add a benefit so they can update to your payroll classic platform.

Important

You will use the Benefits feature for record-keeping purposes. Only the benefits (allowances) set up does not sync through to your payroll classic platform. However, we will notify your payroll admin when you add a benefit so they receive a prompt to make the necessary updates in your organisation's payroll classic platform.
