Data item

Description

When it's required

Taxable Lump Sum

Use this for pay codes where a lump sum is being paid, and an amount of the taxable lump sum is included in Pay for Income Tax.

You need to use this parameter if such a pay code is relevant to your company.

When you enable this parameter, you include it in the Payroll Submission File.

Non-Taxable Lump Sum

Use this for pay codes where a lump sum is being paid, and an amount of the lump sum is not included in Pay for Income Tax.

You need to use this parameter if such a pay code is relevant to your company.

When you enable this parameter, you include it in the Payroll Submission File.

EE AVC

Additional Voluntary Contribution (AVC) pay code assigned to the employee.

When you enable this parameter, you include it in the Payroll Submission File.

Share-Based Remuneration

Use this for pay codes where an employee's remuneration consists of shares in the company and is included in gross pay.

You need to use this parameter if such a pay code is relevant to your company.

When you enable this parameter, you include it in the Payroll Submission File.

Taxable Benefit

These pay codes consist of the amount of non-cash benefits provided to the employee included in gross pay such as company car.

You need to use this parameter if such a pay code is relevant to your company.

When you enable this parameter, you include it in the Payroll Submission File.

Medical Insurance

Associate Medical Insurance BIK with relevant pay codes.

Enable the pay codes that are part of Medical Insurance BIK.

Pension Type

Associate the pension type with the relevant pay codes.

Enable the relevant pay codes.

Set the Pension Types are as follows:

  • P - PRSAA - Retirement Annuity Contract

Previous Year Recoupment

The gross overpayment is deducted from the net pay where an employee is employed. This gross value is not output on the payroll submission file, and the tax liability remains between the employee and Revenue.
