2.1 Columns

The payslip list table shows the following information at a glance for each record:

• Payslip Name — the reference label assigned by payroll when the slip was confirmed (for example, SLIP/2024/001). This is the identifier you would quote to HR if you have a question about a specific payslip.
• From — the start date of the pay period covered by this payslip.
• To — the end date of the pay period covered by this payslip.
• Status — the current state of the payslip. Only payslips that have been fully processed appear in the list; the possible values are Done (confirmed and computed) and Paid (marked as paid by payroll).

Draft or cancelled payslips are not shown in the portal list.

2.2 Search Box

Type part of a payslip name or reference number in the Search box at the top of the list to find a specific slip quickly. The search runs against all fields marked as Searchable on the Payslips document configuration.

2.3 Status Filter

Use the Status dropdown to narrow the list to a specific state:

• All — shows every processed payslip regardless of state. This is the default.
• Done — shows only payslips that have been confirmed and computed but not yet marked as paid.
• Paid — shows only payslips where the payment has been registered.

2.4 Date Pickers

Use the From and To date pickers to display only payslips whose pay period falls within a specific date range — for example, all payslips from the current calendar year or a single quarter.

• From — show payslips whose period start date is on or after this value.
• To — show payslips whose period start date is on or before this value.

2.5 Clear Button

Click Clear to remove all active filters — the search text, the Status selection, and both date pickers — at once. The list returns to showing all processed payslips in the default sort order.

4.1 Header Card

At the top of the page a summary card shows:

• Reference — the payslip identifier assigned by payroll (for example, SLIP/001).
• Pay Period — the From and To dates of this pay cycle, showing the exact range of days covered by the payslip.
• Salary Structure — the pay structure applied to generate this payslip (for example, Employee, Executive, or a custom structure your organisation uses).

4.2 Work Entries

This table lists every type of time worked or leave taken during the pay period. Each row has the following columns:

• Description — the work entry type (for example, Regular Hours, Public Holiday, Sick Leave, or Annual Leave).
• Hours — the number of hours logged for that entry type during the period.
• Days — the equivalent number of working days, calculated according to the employee's work schedule.
• Amount — the gross monetary value calculated for that entry, based on the employee's hourly or daily rate.

4.3 Other Inputs

If your payroll includes any manual additions or deductions for this period — such as a one-off bonus, a commission payment, an expense reimbursement, or a special deduction — they appear in this section. Each line shows a description and the monetary amount.

4.4 Salary Computation

This table shows the full line-by-line calculation that produces your final pay. Each salary rule configured for your pay structure appears as a separate row with its name, quantity or rate, and the resulting monetary amount. Rows are grouped into categories such as Gross, Deductions, and Net. This section is the most detailed view of exactly how your pay was calculated — if you have questions about a specific line, quote its name to your HR administrator.

Note: a salary rule only appears here if the Appears on Payslip option is enabled on that rule's configuration. If you expect a line that is missing, ask your payroll administrator to check the rule settings.

4.5 Summary Card

At the bottom of the page a clear summary shows the three key totals:

• Basic Salary — your fixed base pay before any calculations are applied.
• Gross Salary — your pay after work entries, bonuses, and other additions are included.
• Net Salary — the final amount you receive after all deductions (taxes, social contributions, and other withholdings) have been subtracted.

The paid-on date is also shown here when the payslip has been marked as Paid by payroll.

5.1 Enabling Backend Views

Your HR administrator enables this from Employees → Employee Portal → Documents → Payslips by checking Use Backend Views and setting Backend View Types to include the desired views (for example, list or list,kanban,form), then saving the document.

Once enabled, the portal payslips page renders the embedded Odoo interface instead of the plain list and detail pages described in sections 1–4.

5.2 Kanban View

When kanban is included in the Backend View Types, a view switcher appears at the top right of the embedded interface. Click the kanban icon to switch from the list to the kanban layout. Each kanban card shows the payslip reference, pay period, and status at a glance. Kanban is useful for a quick visual check of which payslips have been paid versus which are still in a Done (not-yet-paid) state.

5.3 Form View

Click any row in the list or any card in the kanban to open the full Odoo payslip form for that record. The form view shows the complete native payslip interface, including:

• All header fields (employee, contract, pay structure, period dates, journal).
• The Work Entries tab with all attendance-based time calculations.
• The Other Inputs tab for manual additions and deductions.
• The Salary Computation tab showing every salary rule line with its computed amount.
• The Print button at the top of the form, which generates and downloads a PDF copy of the payslip — the same document your payroll team distributes.
• The chatter thread at the bottom, showing any notes or messages from your HR or payroll administrator about this payslip.
