How do I enter an Itemised Deduction like Mealie Meal Bags times Price per Bag?

You can add a customised deduction called Mealie Meal as an Itemised Type (no of Bags) entry. Go to the settings page. Choose Edit-Company-Extras. Click on add an extra(at the bottom). Give it a name eg Mealie Meal. Specify it as a "Deduction" in the "Method" field. Specify "Itemised" in the "Type" field. Click on Edit Value (on the right hand side) to edit the default itemized rate. eg Kwacha Price per Bag. Click Apply-to-all in the Company if you want the option to give anyone in the Company this deduction example. Customized extras will appear on the direct payments entry screen which is the second input page for each employee payment capture. When using the offline payroll input option, it will be much quicker to capture these entries in excel. On the offline payroll input sheet you will see your column headings for the "Mealie Meal" deduction and you will only need to enter the Number of Bags. (Harvester will multiply by the rate specified above when you upload) Note: If you want to specify INDIVIDUAL Itemised rates per employee and would like Harvester to "remember" these values from month to month, then type "Individual" in help.
