Payroll Processing: The OOB method fails to capture the 29 days in February during leap years.

The system is currently using a February calculator based on 28 days, resulting in incorrect calculations for salaries in incomplete months.

Updated over a month ago

This problem arises from the leap year, where February contains 29 days. However, our system mistakenly treats it as having only 28 days. Fortunately, there is a workaround available to address this issue.
​
Example Scenario:

  • Employee resigned on 20/02/2024.

  • Employee's salary RM 3,000

  • Days Worked (17 Days) - Basic Rate RM 1758.62.

  1. Go to Normal Pay.

  2. Key in the accurate Basic Rate.

  3. Key In the Working Days and Days Worked (DW) and exclude the Out-of-Bound (OOB).

Note: Adjust the basic rate accordingly, and input the Days Worked (DW) and Working Days (WD) after excluding Out-of-Bound (OOB) days. There's no requirement to input NPL and OOB days.
