I realized that I had missed out some of the settings during the Setup Wizard session. How

can I update the information?

Basically, each step in the Setup Wizard will help you to complete the setting up for a par-

ticular entry. The linkage from Setup Wizard with the DiGiPAY software is shown in the table

q2.

I am planning to use loan repayment entry, tax schedule entry, advance payment entry, leave

taken entry and attendance sheet for my monthly transactions. During payroll processing,

how does DiGiPAY software make use of the information?

In DiGiPAY software, payroll processing is split to 2 portions. Namely: journal generation and

calculation.

When the journal is accessed, there are 4 additional buttons in the viewing toolbar. The

Generate button is used to execute journal generation, whereas the Calculate button is for

journal calculation.

Journal generation is needed when deferred pay is used. For mid-month or end-month payroll

processing, journal generation is automatically executed when the journal is accessed for the

first time. Once generation is completed, journal calculation will be executed.

Table below is showing the sequence of the journal generation.
