Salary components, incentives and deductions
Pay in NXORA is not a single number but a set of components: base, allowances, commissions, bonuses, contributions, loans, penalties. You define a component once in settings — its name, type, calculation method and what it applies to — then attach it to an employee with just a value.
How it works
- 1
Define components
Earning or deduction; fixed amount, percentage, or a formula you build.
- 2
Set what each deduction applies to
Choose exactly which components form the base of each deduction or tax.
- 3
Attach to employees
The same component everywhere; only the value differs per person.

Frequently asked questions
- Can an allowance be taxable but exempt from social security?
- Yes. Each deduction has its own base, and you choose the components that form it independently.
- How are commissions calculated?
- Through tiered plans; you record the achievement and the commission is computed on the applicable bracket and pulled into the period.
