Recurring allowances and deductions.
Define an allowance or deduction once and it applies whenever payslips are generated, to everyone it is assigned to.
Capabilities
What you can define
Allowances and deductions
Both directions on the payslip, each with a clear type so the payslip reads correctly to the employee.
Fixed amount or percentage
A flat figure or a calculation against salary, whichever matches how the component is actually defined in your policy.
Assigned or organisation wide
Applied to everyone, or only to the people assigned to it, which is how most statutory components actually work.
Active and inactive
Retire a component without deleting its history, so old payslips still explain themselves.
In the product
Each adjustment with its calculation, value and the people it is assigned to.
Every payroll has components that repeat. Statutory deductions, transport allowances, medical contributions, loan recoveries. Handling them by editing payslips each cycle is slow and it is where errors accumulate quietly.

Adjustments
Defined once, applied every cycle
Adjustments in Teamio are defined once and applied at generation, so a payslip is produced correctly rather than corrected afterwards.
By the numbers
What it looks like in practice
The organisation currency set here is used across payroll, expenses, loans and every other amount, so nothing is quietly reported in a different unit.

In practice
Adding a recurring component
What you decide once, and what happens every cycle afterwards.
Direction
An allowance adds to the payslip and a deduction reduces it, and the payslip labels it so the employee can read what happened.
Calculation
A fixed amount or a percentage of salary, matching how the component is actually defined in policy rather than forcing one shape on both.
Assignment
Organisation wide or only to assigned people, which is how most statutory and grade-linked components genuinely work.
Application
Applied when payslips are generated, so the payslip is produced correctly rather than corrected afterwards.
Retirement
A component can be made inactive without deleting its history, so payslips from before the change still explain themselves.

How recurring components apply
Both directions on the payslip, defined the same way.
FAQ
Common questions
Can a component apply to only part of the year?
Yes. Components can be made active or inactive, and payslips generated while it was inactive are unaffected rather than retrospectively changed.
Can an adjustment apply to only one department?
Yes. Assignment can be to individuals or groups, so a component that applies to one site or grade does not need a separate payroll process.
What currency are adjustments in?
The organisation currency, which is used consistently across payroll, expenses and loans so nothing is quietly reported in a different unit.
