Bonus

A bonus is a one-off extra payment, such as a festive bonus, a performance bonus or a thank-you payment.

When to use it​

Use it for any reward that is not part of the regular salary — for example, a year-end bonus or a special incentive.

How to add it​

  1. In the menu, go to Payroll → Payroll Items → Bonus.
  2. Choose the employee (or employees).
  3. Enter the bonus amount.
  4. Set the period the bonus should be paid in.
  5. Click Save.
note

A bonus is part of the employee's income, so it is included when the system works out EPF, SOCSO, EIS and tax. This means a bonus can increase the deductions for the month it is paid in.
