Fields Available

• Variation Allowed Percentage (VAP - Net Pay): The Variation Allowed Percentage (VAP) is an intelligent warning system that will alert you at the pay calculation stage if the employee's net pay just calculated differs from the previously updated net pay figure by more or less than the specified percentage. This useful tool will help identify data entry errors that might lead to over or under-payments to employees. You can adjust the percentage variation limit. For example, if you set the variance as 10%, then our program will check that your employee's net pay is neither more than 10% higher nor more than 10% lower, when compared to his/her previous net pay. Similarly, if you set the variance as 50%, then our program will check that your employee's net pay is neither more than 50% higher nor more than 50% lower, to his/her previous net pay.
