Configure company statutory settings in the Payroll platform

Available for the following Payroll plans: Standard, Premium

The Statutory Settings feature allows you to enter your financial information, set up your statutory form settings, and fill in details such as your CPF (Central Provident Fund) Settings and IRAS (Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore) Settings.

This article looks at how to manage these Settings in the Payroll platform's Statutory Settings form.

  1. Log in to your Employment Hero Payroll platform.
  2. Access the   Business Settings menu.
  3. Click Payroll Settings in the submenu.
  4. Click the   Statutory Reporting Settings button.
    • You will now see a page with two tabs: one called CPF Settings and the other called IRAS Settings.
  5. Remain on the CPF Settings tab and input your organisation's CPF Submission Number (CSN) (an example of one has been inputted in the below screenshot) in the three boxes provided.
  6. Click the Save button.

Helpful Hint

In the CPF Settings tab, you can add the Central Submission Number (CSN), which will then allow you to transact with the Central Provident Fund Board (CPFB).

Plus, if you have multiple employing entities, you can enter up to three CSNs for each of them:

  1. PTE (Payroll Tax Element) – used for mandatory CPF payments
  2. VCT (Voluntary Contribution Tier) – used for voluntary employer CPF payments
  3. AMS (Additional MediSave Contribution Scheme) – used for voluntary employer MediSave payments
Manage IRAS Settings

You can use the IRAS (Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore) Settings feature to select whether your organisation will lodge your employee income data electronically via the AIS (Auto-Inclusion Scheme) or manually via forms.

  1. Log in to your Employment Hero Payroll platform.
  2. Access the Business Settings menu.
  3. Click Payroll Settings in the submenu.
  4. Click Statutory Reporting Settings.
  5. Click the IRAS Settings tab.
  6. Select one of the two lodgement method options provided at the IRAS lodgement method dropdown.
    • Choose Electronically via the AIS (Auto Inclusion Scheme) or Manual upload/forms depending on how you wish to lodge your organisation's employees' annual income information. It is mandatory for businesses with more than four employees to lodge electronically via the AIS.
  7. Providing you are a tax agent lodging on behalf of your business client: tick the Tax Agent checkbox.
  8. Click the Save button.
