Pay salary

Two clean paths — both record into the same ledger:

Recording a payment

  1. Pick the month row → "Pay" (or "Pay This Month").
  2. Amount defaults to the outstanding for that month. Cannot exceed the outstanding (overpay guard).
  3. Method: Bank Transfer (default) / Cash / UPI / Cheque / Other.
  4. Optional: transaction ID, note.
  5. Advanced (rare): back-date the payment if it was actually given on a different day.
  6. Save Payment.

FAQs

Overpaid — can I reverse?

Salary Ledger → tap the payment → Reverse Payment. Same 24-hour window as fees.

Partial / advance salary?

Type any amount up to the outstanding. Partial is fine. To pay an advance against next month, switch the Month field to the future month and pay there.
