Branch creation in Saral PayPack

Hello, in this post we will learn the process of Branch creation in Saral PayPack software.

A Company may be having a single unit or multiple units spread across different locations. These units are called Branches.

In the centralized system of payroll computation, Branch details also have to be captured in the system for computation and payroll disbursement.

The process of Branch creation in Saral Paypack and payroll computation is as below;

Let us start

Firstly, if the company is having multiple branches, then enable Multiple Group for PF & ESI in Company Master Window.

On saving the details, go to Branch details under Master menu to enter the different branch information.

Here, create the branch and enter their respective details.

By default, the first branch detail has to be edited with the already listed branch. If the branch will be applicable with the same PF, ESI & PT registration of the company, then the respective groups can be mentioned as NO GROUPING.

Else, respective PF, ESI & PT groups have to be created and mapped to the branches.

To create different PF groups, click on “…” button against PF Group. In the displayed window, create the different PF groups, as applicable.

Next, create the PT groups (if applicable) by clicking on “…” button against PT Group. In the displayed window, create the different PT groups, as applicable.

Note: The return period will be taken automatically depending on the state selected. If not, you can select the periodicity and save information.

For certain states, the half-yearly or yearly return period is available. In such groups, the slab of deduction has to be defined which can be done on click on Slab button.

Lastly, enable the ESI checkbox if different ESI registration is applicable for different branches and create different ESI groups by clicking on “…” button against ESI Group. In the displayed window, create the different ESI groups, as applicable.

Enable Individually calculate employer ESI if the employer contribution of 4.75% has to be calculated separately for every employee.

Enable Limit ESI gross to limit of the ESI contribution to the cut-off limit i.e. Rs. 21000 at present.

After creating the groups, map the group to their respective branch.

In case, the branch is applicable under Newly Implemented ESI Area, then enable the checkbox and provide the duration for which this is applicable.

Note:

From October 2016, the employees and employers contribution rate in ESIC has been reduced to 1% and 3% of the wages respectively from 1.75% and 4.75%. This is applicable for the first time implemented areas for the initial 24 months from the date of implementation.

If the details are to be imported from an Excel sheet, then we can use the option Import & Export. Click on Export, to export an excel template.
