Earning Groups

The Earning Groups form is used to group several earning types into a template or group that can be used to quickly assign multiple earning types to an employee.  In the Employees form under the Earning tab you can choose a earning group from the Group combo box.  The employees earnings area would quickly fill in with all the earning types that were setup in the earning groups form.  Then of course, you could edit each individual earning type or even add new ones.

This form is completely optional but comes in very handy if you have hundreds of employees all with several common earnings.  You can add, edit or delete earning groups as needed using this form.  For a detailed explanation of all the fields on this form, refer to Adding Earning Groups.

An example of an earning group might include common employee earnings like Hourly and Salary.

Within the Earning Group form you can select which taxes will be tax exempt for a specific earning.  It is also very important to select the appropriate Liability Account ID from the Chart of Accounts for each of the earning groups.
