How to Set Up Additions and Deductions in Clockster

If you need to provide an employee with additional payments beyond their base salary — such as compensations, benefits, bonuses, or other fixed payments — use the “Additions” section.

This section is especially convenient if you have standard monthly payments that need to be automatically added to employee payrolls.

To set up an additions:

Go to the “Additions” section.

1. Select the payment category (allowance, other).

2. Enter the title (for example, “For participation in extra shifts” or “Bonus”).

3. Add a comment if you need to provide clarification for accounting or employees.

4. Specify a fixed amount (a specific sum) or set a percentage of the salary if the addition depends on the base rate.

5. Choose whether the addition applies before or after taxation, depending on your company’s policy and legal requirements.

6. If needed, activate “Save as default” — this allows the same addition to be automatically applied when creating or editing employee payrolls.

7. Click “Save” to apply the changes.

Once assigned, the addition will automatically appear in the employee’s payslip every month. This helps you easily manage additional payments without manual recalculations each time.

How to Set Up Deductions in Clockster

If you need to record a payroll deduction for an employee — for example, for broken dishes, property damage, or other withholdings — use the “Deductions” section.

To set up a deduction:

1. Go to the “Deductions” section.

2. In the “Title” field, specify the reason for the deduction (for example, “Broken 12 cm plate”).

3. Add a comment if necessary.

4. Enter the fixed amount, i.e., the exact deduction sum (for example, 3,000 KZT).

5. Optionally, you can specify the deduction as a percentage of the salary.

6. Choose whether the deduction applies before or after taxation, depending on company policy.

7. To make this deduction appear automatically when creating or editing payrolls, activate “Save as default”

8. Click “Save” to apply the changes.

This way, you can easily manage payroll deductions, ensuring transparency and compliance with your company’s internal policies.

This ensures payroll calculations correctly account for public holidays in your country.

How to make Single Adjustments in Clockster

If you need to assign a one-time bonus or deduction (for example, a special reward or penalty), use this section.

To set up:

1. In the “Type” field, choose the required option from the list:

   • Service fee

   • Single loan

   • Single addition (pre-tax)

   • Single addition (post-tax)

   • Single deduction (pre-tax)

   • Single deduction (post-tax)

2. Select the employee to whom the payment or deduction applies.

3. Enter the amount.

4. Set the date when this operation should be included in the payroll.

5. To add multiple records manually, click “Add manually.”

6. For bulk additions, click “Download sample,” fill it out, and upload it back to the system.

7. Click “Save” to apply the changes.

This allows you to easily include one-time payments or deductions when processing payrolls.

When One-Time Additions and Deductions Are Commonly Used

One-time additions:

• Bonuses for meeting targets (monthly, quarterly, or yearly)

• Overtime payments for work on non-working days without a prior agreement

• Financial assistance (in difficult circumstances or as company support)

• Gifts and incentives (e.g., for holidays such as March 8, New Year, or Company Day)

One-time deductions:

• Penalties for property damage, broken items, shortages, or policy violations

• Cash register shortages for employees handling money

In short:
One-time additions and deductions are used for non-regular payments or withholdings that are not part of the company’s standard pay structure.
