Setting Up Hourly Wage (Employment Income) Payroll Settlement

How to configure payment items, member profiles, and settlement templates for hourly wage payroll settlement in flex.

To run hourly wage payroll settlement (employment income), you need to configure payment items, member profiles, and a settlement template.

Hourly wage settlement for daily employment income is not yet supported.

Configuring Payment Items

  • Go to the left menu [Settings] → [Payroll Settlement] → [Payment Items] → [Hourly Pay Items].

    • If you are using the default pay cycle, payroll policy, and pay policy as-is, skip this step.

    • You must have the [Payment Item Management] + [Member Pay Info Management] permissions.

  • Click the [Basic Pay] tab. Under [Pay Amount Unit], set the rounding unit for the auto-calculated basic pay.

    • For example, if set to round up to the nearest 10, an initial calculation of 10,001 KRW will be reflected as 10,010 KRW.

    • The [Pay Stub Description] field at the bottom lets you set the default text shown on the pay stub for the hourly basic pay item.

  • Click the [Weekly Holiday Allowance] tab to set the pay policy. Weekly holiday allowance is normally only paid for a full week, but you can set a separate policy for weeks where the member did not complete the full week due to joining, leave of absence, or resignation (without absences).

    • Example: work cycle is Mon–Sun, 5-day (Mon–Fri) worker joins on Wednesday and works Wed–Fri:

      • Full payment: pay the full weekly holiday allowance for that week

      • No payment: do not pay any weekly holiday allowance for that week

      • Proportional: worked 3 days (Wed–Fri) out of 5 (Mon–Fri) → pay 3/5 of the allowance

  • Also configure the pay amount unit and pay stub description for this item.

Configuring Member Profiles

  • In the hourly member's profile → [Wage Contract Info], select the income type and contract amount.

    • The income type must be set to Employment Income and the contract amount to "Hourly" for settlement to be possible.

    • Set the contract start date to the member's first day of employment or the first day on hourly pay, then save the change.

  • Next, update [Pay Information]. If there are additional payment items beyond basic pay, click [Select Item] to add them for the hourly member.

  • The [Apply Date] is required — it is usually the same as the wage contract start date.

  • Enable [Auto Fill] in the top right to have amounts calculated automatically.

  • For hourly employees, basic pay = the hourly basic pay rate.

  • If there are no other allowances, ordinary pay equals basic pay.

  • To update multiple hourly members at once, go to the left menu [Member Management] → [HR Info Management] → [Bulk Info Change] tab → click [Change Info] in the top right → [Change Contract Info].

  • Set Income Type = Employment Income, Pay Basis = Hourly, enter the contract amount, then click [Change] in the top right.

    • Be sure to set the wage contract start date as well!

  • Then use [Change Pay Information] to bulk-update pay information for members as well.

  • Click the [gear icon] in the top right. If [Auto Calculate Amount] is enabled, the basic pay (hourly rate) and ordinary hourly rate are automatically populated based on the contract amount for the apply date.

    • The apply date is required — it is usually the same as the wage contract start date.

    • Enable [Auto Fill] in the top right for automatic calculation.

    • For hourly employees, basic pay = the hourly basic pay rate.

    • If there are no other allowances, ordinary pay equals basic pay.

I got a [Review Required] status when bulk-changing pay information. What should I do?

This occurs when the contract amount, ordinary hourly rate, and basic pay are inconsistent as of the apply date.

See the FAQ below for how to resolve this.

Configuring the Settlement Template

  • From the left menu [Payroll Settlement] → [Settlement Templates], select a template that already has hourly items configured, or create a new one.

  • In the template [Basic Settings], verify and configure the following:

    • Work Hours Input: Must be set to "flex integration" for work hours to be synced and hourly settlement to work correctly.

    • Basic Work Settlement Period: The period used to calculate hourly basic pay. This period must end before the pay date so all work can be counted.

      • For example, if the period is the 1st to the last day of the current month and pay date is the 25th, work from the 26th to the last day will not be counted.

  • In [Payment Items] settings, all hourly pay items must be enabled.


FAQ

How do I enter pay info for an hourly member who has additional fixed allowances?

For example, if paying an extra 100,000 KRW meal allowance per month in addition to basic pay, click [Select Item], choose the additional allowance, and enter the amount. If the [Auto Fill] toggle is enabled, the ordinary hourly rate is automatically calculated to account for the additional allowance and work type.

Is hourly wage settlement supported for flexible work types?

  • When using a flexible work type with hourly settlement simultaneously, work hours can only be counted correctly when the work cycle end date matches the settlement period end date.

    • Matching example: flexible 1-month cycle (1st–last day), basic work settlement period (1st–last day)

  • If the cycles do not match, some or all of the last work cycle's hours may fall outside the current attribution month and may not be counted correctly.

I got a [Review Required] status when bulk-changing member pay info. What should I do?

  • This means the contract amount, ordinary hourly rate, and/or basic pay are inconsistent as of the apply date.
    Hover over [Review Required] to see the reason.

  • Select the member with the Review Required status and follow the steps in the video below to correct the amounts.
