Employees and payroll
Why you need this
This section covers the whole payroll cycle: employee card → HR orders → accruals and taxes → payroll sheet. Payda calculates IPN (income tax), VOSMS (medical insurance) and the other deductions from the data on the card.
What you need
- The employee's IIN (personal tax ID) and bank account.
- Their salary and hire date.
Step by step
Adding an employee
Open Кадры и зарплата → Сотрудники in the left menu.

Create a card and fill in:
- Фамилия (surname), Имя (first name) and a patronymic if there is one;
- ИИН and Дата рождения (date of birth);
- Гражданство (citizenship), Должность (position), Дата приема (hire date);
- Зарплата c налогами (оклад) (gross) or Зарплата на руки (net), depending on what you agreed;
- Вычет МЗП (minimum-wage deduction) and Инвалидность (disability), if they apply;
- a Банковский счёт for transfers.
Save the card.
For civil-law contractors pick the matching Вид расчёта — Договор ГПХ на руки or Договор ГПХ с налогами.
HR records
The Кадры и зарплата → Кадровые записи tab stores orders per employee. Create the appropriate record:
| Record type | When to use it |
|---|---|
| Изменение зарплаты | The salary changed |
| Оплачиваемый отпуск | Annual paid leave |
| Больничный | Sick leave with a certificate number |
| Командировка | A business trip with a destination |
| Премия | A one-off bonus |
| Компенсация | Compensation for unused leave and similar |
| Отпуск без содержания | Unpaid leave |
| Увольнение | Dismissal, with Дата увольнения |
Accruals
The Кадры и зарплата → Начисления tab shows what was accrued for the chosen month: salary, taxes (ИПН, ВОСМС), and the К выплате (payable) and К перечислению (transferable) totals.

Payroll sheet
- Open Кадры и зарплата → Кадровая ведомость.
- Create a sheet, choose the month and tick the employees.
- Check the amounts and save — the sheet becomes the basis for payments.
Paying salaries in one go is easier via a payment batch.
How to check it worked
Open the Начисления tab for the month: every employee should have a row with a К выплате amount. If someone is missing, check Дата приема on their card.
Common problems
| What you see | Why | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| «Выберите хотя бы одного сотрудника» | Nobody is ticked on the sheet | Tick the employees in the list |
| «Введите ИИН» | The IIN field is empty or invalid | Enter the 12 digits of the IIN |
| An employee is missing from accruals | Hired after the payroll month, or dismissed | Check Дата приема and Дата увольнения |
| The net amount is not what you expected | The wrong Вид расчёта is selected | Open the card and switch the calculation type |
| A deduction was not applied | Вычет МЗП is empty | Set the deduction on the employee card |
What next
- Payments, cash desk, bank — pay salaries as a batch.
- Company, access, plan — check the company details.
