PF covers employees in the Employee party category. Inactive employees still appear in reports while they have a PF balance.
-

Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- The Employee Contribution is worked out as Total Contribution Deduction minus Employer Contribution.
- The PF Type can be changed later. If the structure has been used in Payroll, TrueFin asks you to confirm (Change PF classification), because past PF balances change with it.
- Transactions saved earlier keep the accounts on their vouchers, even if a structure’s account changes later.
