How are benefits taken into account in payroll accounting?

According to the Income Tax Act (EStG), many benefits are so-called wage types. These wage types have certain Social insurance and tax characteristics. A feature can be, for example, that a benefit is tax-free or taxed at a flat rate. The actual amounts for each wage type must be transferred to the wage systems via the :pxtra export features. It is important to map the wage types (e.g. Datev wage type IDs with the :pxtra benefits). The mapping takes place in the settings.

Note: The correct mapping of the wage types and the cooperation with external tax consultants or in-house payroll accounting is part of our service for us. Our customer support team will be happy to assist you with the initial setup of the relevant wage programs.
