Add Overtime amounts to payroll using CSV data

This article is for owners and admins who use Humanised

Overview

Step 1 – Configure company settings for overtime

If you haven’t done this already, go to company settings and set up the following configurations for overtime calculations.

Example:

 let’s assume you set up two overtime categories, “Normal overtime” (rate =1) and “Double overtime” (rate =2) for your organization

Step 2 – Add overtime columns in CSV

This functionality is there for all our users who receive the total overtime time for the month already calculated by their clients or for all users who prefer to calculate the total overtime time for the month manually and outside the system.

Make sure to name your columns exactly with the names you have set up in company settings and keep in mind your “prefered input format” (Days/hours, days/half days/ decimal values) when filling the total overtime times for each employee for that month.

Example:

OT: Normal overtime or OT: Double overtime

Step 3 – Create a payrun

When you upload the CSV and create a payrun, the system will look for the data you have logged in the column for each employee. If there are any overtime leaves, the overtime amounts will be calculated and added to the pay details for relevant employees.

Example:

let’s imagine you are running a payroll under the following parameters, pay cycle start date – 1st of the month, Pay period – June, no.of days per month – calendar days, and overtime rate is calculated from basic salary only.

If this case if an employee named Kamal has 2 days and 4 hours of Normal overtime and a basic salary of LKR 60,000, Overtime rate per hour will be,

(60,000 basic salary /30 days/ 8 hours)*1 = 250 per hour

Therefore, for 2 days and 4 hours of overtime, his Normal overtime amount will be = LKR 5,000//

If Kamal also has 1 day of Double overtime and a basic salary of LKR 60,000, Overtime rate per hour will be,

(60,000 basic salary /30 days/ 8 hours)*2 = 500 per hour

Therefore, for 1 day of overtime, his Double overtime amount will be = LKR 4,000//
