Introduction

First apply the changes to the new percentages of the employee deductions and employer provisions as well as adjustments to the minimal/maximum salaries after the posting of the last pay process of December 2023, however, IMPERATIVELY before the first pay process of the year 2024!

!!Cloud SwissSalary 365: Please note that you should adjust FAK/KIZU/AHV as well as all company-specific insurance policies by yourself. Withholding tax rates must also be imported. For details, please refer to the Manual at docs.swisssalary.ch

IMPORTANT: Check in each case that different salary types are always used for each individual insurance (employee, employer, base, wage, free). If the same salary types are used more than once, correct reports cannot be generated at the end of the year. Depending on the settings, it can also lead to incorrect calculations of limits.

Mutations in compensation funds and insurances are to be entered per date of the start of the contract and the corresponding contract is to be selected. With payroll accounting, the domain and the contract code are saved in the Salary entry as 'Source Domain' and 'Source Domain Code'. This is necessary so that the report can be sent to the correct location. If the new insurer is not available for selection when reporting wages, this insurer was only entered after the last wage processing was carried out. As soon as wage items are processed with the assigned insurance, this insurer is listed in the selection.

If a change of insurance is made after the fact, it is possible that the payroll is not transmitted to the responsible insurers. If the relevant information needs to be adjusted on the posted Salary entry, please contact our support or your Dynamics 365 partner for this.
