CMiC includes calculation support for the Dubai region on the International Payroll module. The definition of the base wage in Dubai is a monthly salary which includes monthly allowances. Full wage includes basic salary plus all the employee benefits/allowances. Benefits are calculated as allowances.

The international Employee Profile screen has an option to allow users to define salary as monthly for the Middle East region to avoid rounding issues. The annual salary is changed to salary frequency, as shown in the screenshot above, and two options are provided in the Salary Frequency field: “Annual” (the default option) and “Monthly”. The Employee Package screen can be viewed from the Employee Profile screen.

Prerequisites

The employee package must include the employee monthly salary and the benefit paid to the employee. Therefore, the employee must have both their benefits that are included in the package and those that are not. The non-package allowances are comprised of company contributions and provisions not paid to the employee.

Those benefits can be elected to the employee in the HR module.

Benefits that are marked as a “Package” are displayed in the Packages section of the Employee Package screen shown above. All non-package benefits are displayed in the Non-Packages section.
