To split an employee's pay between bank accounts, you need to adjust the employee's payment details in their card.
An employee's card is used to specify the bank account information for their salary. To set up this information:
- Go to the Card File command centre and click Cards List.
- Click the Employee tab.
- Click the zoom arrow next to the applicable employee.
- Click the Payment Details tab.
- In the Payment Method field, select Electronic. Additional fields will be displayed.
- In the Electronically distribute net pay among field, select the number of bank accounts into which the employee's pay is to be split. Pays can be split into up to 3 bank accounts.
- Enter the Statement Text which is the text that will appear on the employee's bank statement for each account. This text will appear on the statement for all nominated bank accounts.
- For each bank account, specify the following (ensure these details are correct - refer to the employee for clarification):
- BSB Number
- Bank Account Number
- Bank Account Name
- Value (the value of the pay to go into the account)
- Select whether the Value represents Percent or Dollars. Percent will split the employee's pay on a percentage basis. Similarly, Dollars will base the pay split on the specified dollar amount.
- Click OK.
The example window below shows an employee's pay being split between 3 bank accounts with 50% going to the first account, $10 going to the second account, and the balance going to the third account.
