REFERENCE · Last reviewed

PF Rule — entity reference

A reference record of one company's Provident Fund rates: the employee and employer contribution rates, the EDLI and administration charge rates, the PF wage ceiling and the date they apply from. It is found under Payroll, Settings, Statutory Compliance, PF Rules. The payroll run does not read these records. A PF deduction on a payslip comes only from a salary-structure line whose payroll component has Statutory Type PF, usually a Percentage of the Basic line with a Max Amount for the ceiling, and its amount is that line's own result. Keep the PF Rules list as the documented source of the figures you put on those lines.

Fields

FieldLabelTypeRequiredWhat it does
AdminChargeRateAdmin Charge RateCurrencyThe employer's PF administration charge rate, set on the record page. It is for reference only and produces no cost line.
CreatedByIdCreated ByLookup → UserAccountYes
CreatedDateTimeCreated DateDateAndTimeYes
EdliRateEdli RateCurrencyThe employer's EDLI insurance charge rate. It is for reference only: no payroll calculation produces an EDLI cost from it. Add an employer-contribution line if you want that cost in payroll.
EffectiveFromEffective FromDateThe date the rates apply from, set on the record page. It is for reference only: nothing selects a rule by date, so changing PF on payslips means changing the salary-structure lines.
EmployeeRateEmployee RateCurrencyThe employee's contribution as a percentage of the PF wage, typed as a number (12 for 12 per cent) even though the box shows a currency sign. It is not copied to any payslip; enter the same figure as the Value of the employee-side PF deduction line.
EmployerRateEmployer RateCurrencyThe employer's contribution as a percentage of the PF wage, typed as a number. It is on the New and Edit form but not on the record page. It is not copied anywhere; enter the same figure as the Value of the employer-contribution PF line.
