HR Increment

Created by Level 1 Support Team, Modified on Fri, 15 Sep 2023 at 07:25 PM by Level 1 Support Team

The HR Increment module of HAL ERP is used to enter the increment data of employee/employees so that the changes are effected in their corresponding pay structure from a particular given date or upcoming payroll.


Based on Type of Increment, this module can be used in 2 ways:


1. Type=Increment : It's again use for 2 purpose:


        a. If the user needs to be incremented with BASIC Salary and then dependent components like HRA & TRA which are linked with BASIC will automatically get increment.


        To make the changes in employees' basic salary or in total salary, go to Payroll->HR Increment-> Create New-> Choose type field in the form as 'Increment'



The Increment details in the Grid:


Original Basic salary: Is the current Basic salary of the selected Employee.

Increment: Enter the amount to be incremented in the BASIC salary of the employee in this column

New Basic salary: This will reflect the amount added as increment to the original basic salary

Net Salary old: this column will show the current Net salary before the increment is done (This will have the data from all other pay components added, to the selected employee apart from the basic salary)

Net Salary new: This column will show the NET salary after the increment is done to the basic salary component and If there are other pay components which are calculated based on a formula with respect to the basic salary, those components also would get effected  based on the basic salary that is incremented and the total amount would be shown in this column




    b. If the increment amount needs to appear automatically based on PAYSCALE mechanism as per COMPANY Policy. Then this option will be used.






2. Increment type=Bulk Update


 To make the changes in employees' salary for multiple pay components, go to Payroll->HR Increment-> Create New->Choose type field in the form  as 'Bulk Update'.




1. Select relevant Pay Components like BASIC, HRA, TRA, etc

2. Then selected components will appear in Grid or Table.

3.The grid will list OLD and NEW columns of the selected Pay components.

4.The Pay component OLD  column will show the the current data for the selected employee. (For Ex., HRA Old will show the current HRA of the selected employee in the database before this increment is being carried on

5. The Pay component NEW will be a editable column where the user can enter the incremented amount for that particular pay component for the selected employee )Ex- HRA New will be editable and can be entered the amount to be replaced for the new package. i.e. if OLD HRA is 500 and the HRA new is entered as 1000, then 1000 will be the HRA that would be effected in the selected employee's payroll package after the changes are done



Once the details are added in the grid, click on Add for the transaction to be created and once the transaction is approved, the details added in the grid for the employees will be made effective in the records.


Note: The salary increments created will impact in upcoming payrolls or if there is current payroll which is unapproved, it will impact that as well. Make sure to run and approve previous payroll, before making an Increment transaction approved.
