Frequently asked questions

Who approves an incentive payout?+

Usually the business or sales head approves achievement, and finance or HR approves the payout before payroll processes it.

How long should incentive records be kept?+

Keep them with payroll records for the period your record-retention policy and applicable laws require, as they support salary and TDS figures.

Can incentives be paid outside payroll?+

Incentives to employees should go through payroll so that TDS is deducted and records are complete.
