Payslip Design

A payslip template controls what each employee's payslip looks like — the company header, which salary components appear, and the totals. Open Pay & Expenses > Payroll and choose the Payslip Design tab.

Creating a template​

If you have no templates yet, click Create Your First Template (or Add Template once you have some). Give the template a name and lay out the sections you want on the payslip — earnings, deductions, and net pay.

Once a template exists, payroll uses it to generate every employee's payslip when you run payroll.

The Payroll Columns tab​

The Payroll Columns tab (next to Payslip Design) defines the columns that make up a payroll run — for example basic pay, allowances, and the calculated total. These columns feed into both the payroll run and the payslip.
