What is Job Order Template?

Job Order Template stores the formula to instruct how the pay amount of each pay type is calculated and defines the nature of the pay type.

Different companies or different groups of staff can have a different set of formulas to calculate their payroll. You can create a new Job Order Template when you think the formula is complicated enough to have its own set of rules, e.g

  • For each region if you are a multi-region company, Or
  • For different groups of staff whose payroll calculation is so different from the others

To define the Jor Order Template use, you can go to Staff -> Job Order -> Select the Job Order Template. Staff under that Job Order would use this set of formulas to calculate their salary.
