What does Archived employees mean?
I tried to cancel the employee data and enter another new but same error. By the way, I notice for existing employees the fields (cells to enter data) were different, something seems changed which is all good, but national id is giving an error. Is it please possible for you to see Employee → Management → + and try to add an employee if National id United States gives same error? Thanks
Hi, this error message means there is already another record with the same national id in your account.
Just click at the Search button on the upper right corner, then search for Archived employee and check the details.
Oh so National id is employee id. I see… Thanks for informing. That makes sense now.
No, employee ID is not national ID, but both IDs need to be unique too. An employee in a country will not be assigned the same national ID with another employee from the same country, isn’t it?
Hi, I have updated HR.my to support Capped Statutory Contribution, you may try to see if it meets your need now.
Thanks, however, it didn’t take in effect. I tried to set up this for these two rules:
- Employment Training Tax (ETT)
The 2023 ETT rate is 0.1 percent (.001) on the first $7,000 of each employee’s wages. - Unemployment Insurance (UI)
The 2023 taxable wage limit is $7,000 per employee
What this means is for first total salary of $7000 for each employee (regardless of how many pay period months), the tax rate applies. After the first $7000 income, it is no tax 0 taxes to pay.
I tried to put ‘7000’ at ‘income more than (x)’ and ‘0’ at % in the table and ‘7000’ at cumulative tax for same code ‘7 CA ETT Rate’. These are same codes that are also set in ‘Statutory Contribution’ as it was only possible to select those in the employee payroll profile.
When I ran payroll, it still calculated for each pay period first $7000 instead of limiting to salary of only $7000 total for the employee accounting the salary paid in past.
I think you are using the wrong feature, you should be using the % Gross Income, then set the Cap amount instead of using Statutory Table.
Just set the Cap to be 7000 x 0.001 = 7 will do.
It works, thanks a lot

Hi kapchew -
For the capped amount on Statutory Contributions distributions, it is putting the capped amount in every pay period instead of deducting the previously paid amount in effect from capped amount and using that number.
To clarify,
we have ‘CA ETT Rate 0.10 % Fixed (D7 CA ETT Rate)’ with capped amount of 7, which showed CA ETT tax of 1.10 for one employee’s ETT tax for Aug for 4 days pay period (as employee joined last week of Aug). When running payroll for Sept (as Sept is full month), it is showing charges for CA ETT tax of 7. Instead it should be 5.9 for Sept and 0 for future. The same is happening for other capped that it is not deducting the previously already paid taxes amount from the capped amount.
Is it something you can help me with fixing?
Thanks
Hi,
I think the Capped amount setting does not cater for your use case yet.
Currently the use case supported is like, employee paying for certain provident fund at a fixed percentage, but when salary exceeds certain level, it will be capped at a specific amount.
Your use case will require tracking of all previous transactions in order to set a cap at “Accumulated Amount”, which is not yet supported.
