Set up employee payroll settings in Sentra

Find an employee’s attendance PIN, pay details, effective date, and commission settings in Sentra when payroll is available.

Published

Open More → Employees, select the employee, and find Payroll Settings. When payroll is available for your account, this area includes the attendance PIN, pay details, and commission settings.

Open the correct employee

Start in More and open the employee record. Confirm the employee name and branch before changing settings, particularly when the business has staff at several locations.

If the payroll section shows a plan requirement, review your subscription. Use the account’s displayed availability when deciding the next step.

Configure attendance and pay details

Under Attendance, use Set PIN or Change PIN to configure the employee’s PIN for clocking in and out.

Review Pay Type and the corresponding rate fields. Sentra offers Hourly, Daily, and Fixed pay types. Enter the employee’s agreed pay details in the fields shown, including the pay period or hours where applicable. Rates are displayed in pesos.

When changing pay details, review the Effective Date before saving the employee. This date is part of the pay settings you submit.

Review commission separately

If the employee should receive commission, review the Commission switch, Commission Type, and Commission Rate. The available types are Percentage and Fixed per sale.

Save the employee and check the result message. If saving fails, contact support with the affected employee, branch, field, and error message. Do not include the employee’s attendance PIN or password.
