If your company uses bank transfer to pay employees, you'll need to configure your bank format and add employees' bank account details to their profiles.


Step 1: Create a Bank Format

  1. Go to Settings > Payroll Tab > Employee Bank section.

  2. Click + Add Bank. A Create Bank popup will appear.

  3. Fill in the details:

    • Select Country: Choose Myanmar from the dropdown.

    • Select Bank: Pick the appropriate bank (e.g., KBZ, AYA, CB, etc.).

    • Description: Add a clear description for internal reference (e.g., "KBZ Export Format").

  4. Below Bank Format Name, the system will automatically show required fields:

    • ✅ Beneficiary Name

    • ✅ Beneficiary Account Number

    • ✅ Bank Branch Name

    • ✅ Bank Branch Address
      These fields are system-defined and cannot be removed.

  5. To add more fields:

    • Click + Add Another Row.

    • Type the field name (e.g., NRC Number, Net Amount).

    • Choose the data source from the dropdown:

      • Custom Input Fields

      • Employee Name

      • Payroll Net Amount

      • Employee Phone Number

      • NRC Number

      • Address, etc.

    • Click Confirm to save.


Step 2: Fill in Employee Bank Information

  1. Go to the Employees tab.

  2. Click on the name of the employee you wish to update.

  3. In the employee’s profile, open the Bank tab.

  4. Under Payment Method, toggle between:

    • Cash

    • Bank Transfer → select this if the employee is paid via bank.

  5. Once Bank Transfer is toggled:

    • You will see the list of banks created in your settings.

    • Toggle ON the bank that applies to this employee.

    • Click the arrow icon (▶) beside the bank name to expand fields.

    • Fill in the employee-specific bank details (Account Number, Branch Name, etc.)

    • Click Update to save.


✅ Once set up, this information will be automatically used when exporting payroll for bank transfers.
