Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) requires Singapore employers to report their employee incomes and deductions in IR8A forms at year end. In order for Dayforce to track these deductions, each deduction is mapped to an IR8A deduction category in Payroll Setup > Earnings and Deductions.
Before You Begin: Make sure you are familiar with how deductions are set up in Payroll Setup > Earnings and Deductions.
Role feature access: Payroll Setup > Payroll Setup > Earnings and Deductions and its sub-features
To map an deduction to an IR8A deduction category:
- Go to Payroll Setup > Earnings and Deductions, click the Deductions tab, and select an existing deduction or add a new deduction.
- Click the Options tab, and select the IR8A deduction category you want to map to this deduction in the IR8A Deduction Reporting Section field. For example, to map a donation, select Donation.
