Voluntary Deductions for UAE

You can create the Loan element for UAE using the primary classification Voluntary Deduction and the secondary classification Loan.

The following loan types are supported:
  • Personal Loan
  • House Construction Loan
  • Housing Rent Loan
  • Car Loan

The element created through the element template is the loan recovery element. The imput data required to perform the loans calculation is entered through the input values at element entry level.

The element template generates the input fields and a set of balances used to store accumulated values needed to process the loan.

You can trigger the Loan recovery for an employee by adding an element entry for an element classified as loan.

Gratuity Payment Element

You can use the UAE Gratuity Payment element to process gratuity payments. This element is created when the End of Service calculation card is automatically generated by the termination process.

Auto Indirect Elements and Creation of Element Eligibility

Auto Indirect elements are predefined by UAE localization to trigger Social Insurance and Gratuity Calculations once the related person level cards have been assigned to the person. These elements are automatically assigned as element entry to the person.

This assignment is done without any action at the implementation level, but before assigning any person calculation card the implementation team must create element eligibility for the Auto Indirect elements.
