Payable days are the days for which employers pay their employees. It includes not only days worked but also paid leave, holidays, and weekends. Employers can choose to exclude holidays and weekends from the payable days calculation. Additionally, if they prefer not to use the actual calendar days in the month, they can set the number of pay days as anything between the 20 and 31 for the month.
This document explains why payable days value is sometimes shown in decimals.
In the screenshot below, Charitha Reddy's total number of working days is shown in decimals as 20.32/30. This is because she joined the job on the 11th of January, 2023- in the middle of the month.
If the 'Paydays in a month' for a pay group is set to 30, the system will show payable days value in decimals in cases of joining and exit in the middle of a month.
Read on ahead if you want to know how to check 'Paydays in a month' details for a pay group.
On the Keka portal and click on the Payroll (1) tab. Under Settings (2), find Pay Groups (3). If you have multiple pay groups, choose the one you want to work on. Click on the configure icon (4) against the pay group.
On the next window that pops up, click on Pay Cycle (1). Check the value that appears under Pay Days in a Month (2). The value could be either 30 (30 days) or Actual Days. If it is Actual Days, the system will count actual days in the month and process the salary.
If the value that appears under Pay Days in a Month is 30 (30 days), the system will consider 30 days for every month.
