GEM-CAR FAQ
Payroll Configuration
In order to use the payroll module, it is necessary to perform some basic configurations.
From the main menu located on the left side of the application, click on Payrolls > Configurations > Configurations.
Make sure to correctly enter all the required accounts so that payroll transactions are created in the correct accounts.
The Number of pay periods per year is important to enter because GEM-CAR calculates the annual income for tax calculations based on this. For example, if an employee's current pay is $500 and the number of pay periods per year is 52, GEM-CAR will understand that the employee has an annual salary of $26,000.
