Admin and Finance can conveniently pay employees' salaries all at once by following the video guide or steps below:

Step-by-step guide:

1. Click on "Pay salaries" button

2. Click on next to read through how the feature works, then once you click on "Get Started" you will be directed to a page where you can download the Payroll template in either Excel or Google sheet format.

3. Make sure that you create a copy of the Excel or Google Sheets template first before you amend the following details:

Columns Detail
Sl No  Add the serial number based on the number of entries you will be placing on the sheet.
Currency Only place SGD.
A/c Holder Name Recipient's bank account name.
A/c Number  Recipient's bank account number.
Bank code Choose the recipient's BIC from the dropdown menu.
Transfer Amount  Amount you want to send to the recipient.
Reference Use your company name as the payee so that the recipient can see that the payment is from your company, as it will appear as "Aspire FT Pte. Ltd." on the transfer details. Keep in mind that there is a character limit of 25, so your company name may be shortened.

4. Save your Excel or Google Sheet file in .XLSX format.

5. Return to the previous tab and upload the file by clicking "Choose file."

6. Enter your local SGD account number in the "SGD Virtual Account to debit from" field, then hit "Submit"
