Configuration - Payroll - AW/OW Opening

The AW/OW Opening Balance page is optional and intended for clients who have just started using JustLogin but do not wish to backdate and process payroll for previous months.

The system will treat the amounts entered here as the starting balances. These figures will be used to track the CPF contribution limits. Once an employee’s total OW or AW reaches the annual limit in future payruns, the system will automatically stop CPF deductions for the affected employee.

Please note that the values entered in the AW/OW Opening Balance page will not appear in any system reports. They are solely used for CPF calculation purposes. However, these amounts will be included in the IR8A form.

Step 5: Update the 'As At' field - 

*The 'As At' field refers to the month of the last/previous payroll** that was processed outside of JustLogin (i.e., in the old system, manual payroll). For example - if your first payrun inside Justlogin system is for the month of October 2022, then the 'As At' field must be 'Sep 2022'.
