How do I enter a Private Medical Scheme?

From the home page, go to Edit Employees and then look for "Medical Company %" and "Medical Employee %" under the rates section. If you enter a value higher than 99 then a straight, Kwacha medical will be used. Medical will only appear on the LARGE payslip option if you are using the export-to-excel to create your payslip reports. It will NOT be recorded on the standard payslips that are exported to excel, but the NET amounts will still be correct. If you use the medical (company portion) then no change in the actual net payslip will happen. The medical (employee portion) is what is actually deducted and so reduces the NET payslip. You may look at the values and the accumulated using the Other-Reports page option. On this page, select the Values-that-Cumulate report. As this entry may be used for accumulating purposes, you may also have the ability to edit the values that are accumulated. You will be able to manually edit the "medical" value which will affect the Accumulated, outstanding medical total: 1)Click on Settings 2)Click on employee Settings (Left hand side of screen) 3)Click on Historic Accumulated values(Right hand side, with blue button that says Edit) 4)Click on the particular historic payment of a specific employee you would like to edit. Note on the Edit Screen: "Current" means for the particular payment month you are editing. You have to change the actual value in a particular pay period. Then the Accumulated value changes accordingly. This is like an accounting system.
