Salary Detail

The Salary Detail page shows the full salary computation for a single employee within a payroll cutoff. It is where you drill into one person's payslip β€” seeing exactly how their net pay was built up from earnings, government contributions, taxes, and deductions β€” and where you can add manual adjustments (a salary increase or deduction, an extra allowance, or an extra deduction) for that cutoff.

Overview

You reach the Salary Detail page by clicking an employee's row on the Payroll Summary. The page is organized into tabs so you can look at the same computation from different angles:

  • Summary β€” a payslip-style view with earnings on one side and deductions on the other, ending in net pay.
  • Day Breakdown β€” a day-by-day table of deductions and earnings (hidden for fixed-rate employees).
  • Computation Summary β€” the detailed basis behind every figure: rates, deduction periods, and the full government-contribution and tax computations.
  • Raw Logs β€” the underlying timekeeping records for the cutoff, shown read-only.

From the page header you can also jump to the employee's timekeeping, and add manual salary adjustments.

Accessing Salary Detail

  1. Click Manpower in the sidebar
  2. Open Payroll
  3. Select Payroll Center
  4. Click a cutoff card to open its Payroll Summary
  5. Click the employee's row in the summary table

The page title shows the employee's name, and the breadcrumb trail is: Manpower β€Ί Payroll β€Ί Payroll Center β€Ί Summary β€Ί [Employee Name].

Click the back arrow (or the Summary breadcrumb) to return to the Payroll Summary.

Note: If the page can't find the timekeeping information for that employee and cutoff, it shows an "Unable to load salary detail" message with a Go Back button. Open the employee from the Payroll Summary so the page receives the right context.

Attendance Changed After Computation Warning (legacy data only)

Attendance can no longer be edited once payroll processing has started for a cutoff β€” see Timekeeping Freeze. This means a newly processed employee's salary can never go stale, and this banner only appears on older cutoffs computed before the freeze took effect.

If this employee's attendance was edited (in timekeeping) after their salary was already computed for this (older) cutoff, an "Attendance changed after computation" banner appears at the top of the page. The message names the reason the salary went stale β€” for example "This payslip's attendance changed after the salary was computed (Leave approved (Jul 3)), so the figures below may be out of date." Reasons include a leave approval, an attendance edit, a holiday change, an approved overtime filing, or a schedule/shift/team reassignment.

Use View Timekeeping to double-check the attendance, then go back to the Payroll Summary and click Re-Compute to refresh this employee's (and the cutoff's) figures. If the cutoff is submitted, approved, or published while this employee is still stale, a confirmation dialog on the Payroll Summary page requires acknowledging the affected employees before it can proceed β€” see Payroll Summary.

The Tabs

A row of tabs sits at the top of the page. Click a tab to switch views; the active tab is remembered in the page address, so refreshing keeps you on the same tab.

TabWhat it shows
SummaryThe payslip-style earnings/deductions/net-pay overview. This is the default tab.
Day BreakdownA daily table of deductions and additional earnings. Hidden for Fixed Rate employees.
Computation SummaryThe computation basis, government-contribution detail, and tax computation.
Raw LogsThe employee's raw timekeeping records for the cutoff (read-only).

Summary tab

The Summary tab is laid out like a paper payslip. At the top is a prominent Net Pay figure, followed by two columns:

  • Earnings (left) β€” basic pay, allowances, any manual salary adjustments, and (where applicable) year-to-date figures.
  • Deductions (right) β€” government contributions, tax, loans, and any manual deductions.

Manual adjustments that were added for this cutoff are marked with an indicator. Click an adjustment to open its Adjustment Details dialog, where you can review it and delete it (see Adding and removing adjustments).

Carry-over (previous cutoff)

If this cutoff includes any pay carried over from a filing that was approved after an earlier cutoff was already locked for payroll processing (see Timekeeping Freeze), a "Carry-over (previous cutoff)" section appears at the bottom of the Earnings column, below Manual Adjustment. Each line shows the filing type and date, with its amount; a Total Carry-over row sums them. Carry-over pay is taxable and is included in this cutoff's gross pay and Manual Earnings.

Click the transfer icon next to a carry-over line to open the Carry-over Details dialog, showing:

  • From cutoff β€” the source cutoff period and its status
  • Filing date(s) β€” the date(s) the original filing covered
  • Filed on β€” when the filing was originally submitted
  • Approved by and Approved on β€” who approved it late, and when
  • Computation breakdown β€” the line items (item, qty, rate, factor, amount) used to compute the carried amount, using the rates from the original (frozen) cutoff

Day Breakdown tab

The Day Breakdown tab shows one row per day in the cutoff, with a totals row at the top. For each day it breaks the figures into:

  • Deductions β€” Late, Undertime, Absent, and the deduction total.
  • Basic Pay β€” shown for Daily Rate employees.
  • Additional Earnings β€” Rest Day, Overtime, Night Differential, Night-Differential Overtime, Special Holiday Pay, Regular Holiday Pay, and the earnings total.

A Day Rate column shows the rate applied for that day.

A small warning icon next to the Date on a day means that day is the one a legacy "attendance changed after computation" reason (see below) refers to β€” hover it for the reason. This only appears on older, pre-freeze cutoffs.

This tab does not appear for Fixed Rate employees, whose pay is not computed day by day.

Computation Summary tab

The Computation Summary tab explains how every amount was derived. It has two columns:

  • Computation Basis (left) β€” the settings and rates that drive the computation:

    • Payroll Period Type and Computation Type (Monthly, Daily, or Fixed Rate)
    • Salary Rate β€” monthly rate, daily rate, hourly rate, and the basic salary for the cutoff
    • Deduction Period β€” the period used for Withholding Tax, SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG
    • Deduction Basis β€” the basis used for SSS and PhilHealth
    • SSS Computation β€” amount basis, employee share, employer share (including Employees' Compensation), Mandatory Provident Fund, and Monthly Salary Credit
    • PhilHealth Computation β€” percentage, amount basis, minimum/maximum contribution, and employee/employer shares
    • Pag-IBIG Computation β€” percentage, amount basis, and employee/employer shares
    • Tax Computation β€” taxable income basis, taxable offset, percentage, fixed amount, and tax total
  • Tax Computation & Salary Breakdown (right) β€” the tax computation alongside the salary breakdown for the employee's rate type (Monthly, Daily, or Fixed). Loans and allowances are summarized here too, and β€” if this cutoff has any β€” a Carry-over (previous cutoff) group is itemized here as well, with its own total, so the breakdown still adds up to Gross Pay (see Carry-over (previous cutoff)). As in the Summary tab, manual adjustments are clickable and open the Adjustment Details dialog.

Raw Logs tab

The Raw Logs tab shows the employee's underlying timekeeping records for the cutoff period. It is read-only here β€” you cannot edit time records from the Salary Detail page. To edit attendance, use the View Timekeeping action (below) or the Payroll Time Keeping screens.

Page Actions

The page header carries these buttons:

  • View Timekeeping β€” opens the employee's timekeeping for this cutoff, so you can review or correct their attendance records.
  • Re-Compute β€” recomputes this employee's salary. (This button is currently shown as disabled.)
  • Add Adjustment β€” a dropdown that lets you add a manual adjustment to this cutoff:
    • Adjust Salary β€” add a salary increase or deduction
    • Add Allowance β€” add an extra allowance
    • Add Deduction β€” add an extra deduction
