Now go to pay heads Select Create Name: Wages by Attendance Page Head type: Earnings for Employees Under: Direct Expenses Appears in pay slip: Yes Calculation Type: On Attendance Attendance / Leave with pay: Select ‘Attendance’ (We just created before) Calculation Period: Days

We just created one pay head. Create another Name: Wages by PCS Rate

Page Head type: Earnings for Employees Under: Direct Expenses Appears in pay slip: Yes Calculation Type: On Production Attendance / Leave with pay: Select ‘Cloth Produced’ (We just created before) Now you create employees and Employee Groups Create two employee Groups 1.
