Generating Payslip in ODOO

Payslip is created naturally in ODOO. Initially, you have to add the employee details like salary structure, the contract that the employee is working in, payroll and employee module, then the payslip will be automatically generated.
Each employee has their own contract. So the foremost thing is to build the contract of an employee. Then look over for the active contracts. Active contracts of an employee define the working plan, time span of your work, basic salary and also other essential requirements.

Firstly, for generating payslip of an employee, you have to construct two basic things,

• Contract of the employee
• Salary structure

Employees can have one contract or more than one contract, generally decided by the management. The salary structure consists of a group of things that includes many salary rules. Based on these rules salary computation should be made. All these configurations are made under the payroll settings.
