2. Select the Employee’s name from the list of employees.
3. Select Pay Run Inclusions from the left menu, then from the Super Adjustments section select Add.
4. Under the Contribution Type dropdown menu, select Employer Contribution.
5. Enter the contribution amount in the Amount (per pay run) section. You can select the amount as Fixed, Percentage of Gross, OTE or taxable earnings.
6. Enter any notes if you want them to show up on the employee’s pay slip.
