How do I record absent days for Fixed Salary earners so that their pay is deducted?

Normally "Fixed Salary" earners are by nature not on daily rates of pay. Hence there is no need to use the Work Days input field on the payment capture screen for Fixed Salary employees. However if you would still like to keep an employee on a "Fixed Salary" and you want to DEDUCT for absent days, then do the following: Example of a "Fixed Salary" employee with one day absent: Enter -1 (negative one) in the Work Days entry if the employee was absent one day. The payslip will show a deduction of 1 Day times the daily-rate-of-pay and this will be removed from the Basic Pay. NB this will need to be explained to the employee as it is not normal for "Fixed Salary" earners as they are differentiated from daily paid workers.
