Line layout can be used to bring the text, amount details of a wage type while defining a line layout we can decide that what should be read from respective table
Let say if i define 01 X as TEXT then it reads the text from respective table same can be utilized in windows while adding wage type windows we can assign the line layout against to a wage type
Let say XXXX - 01 X and 01 X is defined as Text so on payslip XXXX will appear with Text on payslip similarly we will have Line layouts with Text, Number and Amount accordingly it appears on the payslip.
Cumulation ID-
We use cumulation ID's to sum of all the wage type.
Let say XXXX is my cumulation ID XXXX = (0001+0002+0003+etc)
XXXX is holding n number of wage types, same can be used while defining single fields
i.e We will have earnings concept Earnings = Sum of all wage types which we are using to pay employees let assume we have 10 components each component is holding 1000/- Rs I will add all of them in cumulation ID XXXX i.e XXXX = 1000(1)+1000(2)+ ---------1000(10).
XXXX = 10000
While defining single fields Against to Earnings I will use XXXX as idetifier then it prints 10000 on payslip similarly it works for Deductions as well.
Rules
Where we can manipulate the indicators of wage tpes positive or negative and for other fields as well if this is X field then print so and so value this we can do with the help of Rules.
