Organization settings

Set organization-wide defaults for payroll, attendance, and scheduling under Settings → Organization settings. Configure your organization’s currency, working days, and attendance pay method. These settings apply across the organization.

Note

Editing these settings requires the Manage Organization Profile permission.

• Default currency: Sets the currency used across the platform, such as GHS or NGN. Search the supported list and select a currency. It is used in payroll, reports, and payslips.
• Working days: Defines the days of the week your organization operates. Attendance, scheduling, and monetization use these settings when determining working days and overtime. Select all applicable days.
• Holiday and non-working day priority: Determines which rate applies when a day is both a holiday and a non-working day: Prioritize Holiday Rates or Prioritize Non-Working Day Rates. Manage the holidays themselves under Holidays.
• Default attendance payment type: Sets how attendance-based payroll calculates pay by default: Pay per actual worked hours or Pay per guaranteed hours per day.
• Default guaranteed hours per day: Sets the number of hours used to calculate daily pay from an hourly rate when Pay per guaranteed hours per day is selected. For example, enter 8 to use eight hours per day.

How these settings are used

• Currency determines the currency used in payroll, reports, and payslips.
• Working days influence overtime calculations and attendance monetization. See Overtime and Work schedules.
• Payment type and guaranteed hours provide the default attendance-based payroll settings in Salaries, contracts & pay elements. You can override these defaults for specific schedules using a work schedule.
