Understanding Earnings for Singapore

We have created a number of earnings to demonstrate the flexibility of the Global Payroll rules to meet common processing requirements such as the NPVP BASIC (non-pensionable variable payment) which is an earning element that is used to form part of the payee's pay component in the public sector.

Note: The User Key 2 on the Earnings Accumulators page and Deduction Accumulators page for all earnings and deductions is IRS VR BAL GRP (Balance Group ID). Use balance group IDs to maintain separate employee balances. Set an employee's balance group on the Payroll details on JOB. The balance group number will need to be manually increased if you are required to record separate balances within a financial year. The User Key 1 is variable IRS VR TAX REF, the employer tax reference number.
