Introduction

In uKnowva HRMS, salary structures play a crucial role in defining how employees are compensated across various departments and designations.

However, there may be times when an organization needs to update or revise its default salary structure due to changes in compensation policy, tax regulations, or internal restructuring.

To accommodate such updates, uKnowva HRMS allows HR managers to easily edit the default salary structure using a simple and guided interface.

In this article, we will walk you through each step involved in editing the default salary structure in uKnowva.

Step 1: Accessing the Payroll Interface

To begin editing the default salary structure, log in to your uKnowva HRMS instance and navigate to the HR menu from the left-hand side navigation panel.

Once there, click on the Payroll sub-menu and click on Payroll from the list of options to access the payroll management section.

This page will display the list of users along with their current payroll data, from which you can proceed with making changes to the default structure.

Step 2: Opening the Edit Default Structure Panel

Once you are in the Payroll section, locate the More button at the top-right corner of the page. Click on this button to reveal a list of additional payroll-related options.

From this list, select Edit Default Structure. This will open a new interface where you can modify the existing default salary structure settings for your organization.

Step 3: Defining the Yearly CTC

Within the default structure editing panel, begin by entering the Yearly CTC (Cost to Company) and Yearly gross value.

Once this amount is filled in, the system will automatically calculate the corresponding values based on standard payroll configurations.

This auto-calculation ensures precision in monthly payouts and helps in visualizing the salary breakdown effectively.

Step 4: Customizing Earnings and Deductions

After the CTC values are set, move on to the Earnings and Deductions sections.

Here, you can add, remove, or adjust components such as Basic Pay, HRA, Special Allowance, Provident Fund, and other standard fields.

This customization should be done in alignment with your organization’s policies and statutory requirements.

The modular interface allows flexibility in defining each component, ensuring the final salary structure is comprehensive and compliant.

Step 5: Saving the New Default Structure

Once all the fields are completed and thoroughly reviewed for accuracy, scroll down and click on the Save button to apply the changes.

This action will finalize the newly edited default salary structure and make it available for assignment to new users or mass updates.

It is important to ensure that the structure aligns with your company’s compensation strategy before saving.
