How do I sort Personal Levy?

There is a report called "Personal Levy" on the main print-reports page. Look under the Employee General Reports section on the right hand side. This will tell you how much to deduct from each person. For most employees it is a standard 15 Kwacha. If the gross annual wage amount divided by 12 (for the number of months in a year) is less than K700 then no personal levy will be charged. How to ensure each employee pays: You need to manually input the 15 K as a deduction. To do this you can add a custom Extra and call it "Levy" or you could just enter it under the standard "Pers Levy" field on the normal payroll capture form. Note if you use the latter, then you need to manually enter the amount you want the employee to pay eg K15 What is important is that you print the report of the Personal Levy for each person and keep this on record. (You may also simply export to excel and keep a soft copy as well) Note: Search Help by typing "Extras Fixed Deduction Example" to see how you can add a fixed deduction like Levy that will apply to all. The advantage for this custom extra as opposed to the standard extra is that you don't need to enter for each employee manually.
