+HR Payroll
+==========
+
+The new :mod:`hr_payroll` module includes a generic payroll engine that handles everything required to compute hr salary slips, the taxes to pay, etc.
+You can manage your company's payroll by using this module.The configuration wizard to install this module is shown below:

+
+   *Configuration wizard to install hr_payroll module*
+
+OpenERP provides the following features for efficient payroll management process:-
+
+- Salary rule: are used to compute data like allowances, deductions, net, taxes, contribution registers, etc.
+- You can define salary rules by using the expression.
+- Salary structure: Define a set of rules usually applied to a category of employees.
+- Salary calculation after considering all the allowances, deductions and incentives (if any) etc.,
+- Contribution registers: A register containing to whom the company or the employee have to pay taxes.
+- Employee and contract: It includes everything required to compute the salary slip of an employee.
+- Salary processing on the basis of leaves taken or number of working days.
+- Generating Reports.
+- Integrated with Contracts and Holidays.
+
+Salary Rule Categories
+----------------------
+
+Salary Rule Categories are your Basic, Allowance, Deduction, Gross, Net, Company Contribution, etc by using which you can categorize your Salary Rule. You can define Salary Rule Categories by using the menu :menuselection:`Human Resources --> Configuration --> Payroll --> Salary Rule Categories` and click *New.*
+
+.. figure:: images/salary_rule_categories.png
+   :align: center
+   :scale: 75
+
+   *Allowance defined as Salary Rule Category*
+
+You can configure the following information:-
+
+- *Name* : A name for the Salary Rule Category.
+- *Code* : A code for the Salary Rule Category. It must be unique.
+- *Parent* : It is used to create hierarchy for reporting purpose.
+
+After entering the Salary Rule Category information click *Save.*
+
+Salary Rules
+------------
+
+Salary Rules are the various types of Allowances, Deductions, etc.You can define Salary Rules by using the menu
+:menuselection:`Human Resources --> Configuration --> Payroll --> Salary Rules` and click *New.*
+
+
+.. figure:: images/salary_rule.png
+   :align: center
+   :scale: 80
+
+   *House Rent Allowance defined as Salary Rule*
+
+Before starting to configure a rule I would like to mention a list of Available Variables which will be used to specify field's value(as python code) on Salary Rules.
+
+`Available variables:`
+
+* ``payslip``: object containing the payslips.
+* ``employee``: hr.employee object.
+* ``contract``: hr.contract object.
+* ``rules``: object containing the rules code (previously computed).
+* ``categories``: object containing the computed salary rule categories (sum of amount of all rules belonging to that category).
+* ``worked_days``: object containing the computed worked days.
+* ``inputs``: object containing the computed inputs.
+
+You can configure the following information:-
+
+- *Name* : A name for the Salary Rule.
+- *Code* : A code for the salary rule. It must be unique.
+- *Category* : Select a category for a rule.
+- *Sequence* : Provide the sequence(integer).
+.. note:: Sequence
+
+    Sequence plays a major role in the calculation and appearance of payslip lines. For example, a sequence defined on a rule calculating the Gross should always be greater than the sequence's given on Allowance's rules, else it won't be considered in the calculation of Gross value.
+
+- *Active* : If **False**, it will allow you to hide the salary rule without removing it.
+- *Appears on Payslip* : If **False**, it won't appear on the payslip but will be considered in the calculation.
+
+- *Condition Based on* : Consider a rule on the basis of some condition.
+
+1. ``Always True`` : As the name implies the condition is always True and hence rule will always be considered in the Payslip calculation.
+
+2. ``Range`` : The rule will be considered if it falls under a particular range.
+
+  - *Range Based on* : You can provide the base value for range by using the above mentioned variable. For example, ``contract.wage``. This will take the wages mentioned on contract.
+  - *Minimum Range* : The minimum amount applied for this rule.
+  - *Maximum Range* : The maximum amount, applied for this rule.
+
+3. ``Python Expression`` : You can specify your condition by python expression.
+
+  - *Python Condition* : The expression can be written using the above mentioned variable. For example, ``result = rules.NET > categories.NET * 0.10`` .
+
+- *Contribution Register* : Eventual third party involved in the salary payment of the employees.Used in report.
+
+- *Amount Type* : The computation type for the rule amount. There are three types available to compute the amount.i.e ``Fixed Amout, Percentage, Python Code``.
+
+1. ``Fixed Amount`` : As the name indicates the amount is fixed.
+
+  - *Quantity* : For e.g. A rule for Meal Voucher having fixed amount of 1€ per worked day can have its quantity defined in expression like ``worked_days.WORK100.number_of_days`` which will then be multiplied with the amount.
+  - *Fixed Amount* : An amount for a rule.
+
+2. ``Percentage`` : Here you can calculate the amount through percentage.
+
+  - *Percentage based on* : You can provide a base value for type percentage by using the above mentioned variable. For example, If you want to give 5% of wages for Provident Fund then you have to specify percentage based on as contract.wage.
+  - *Quantity* : For example, a rule for Meal Voucher having fixed amount of 1€ per worked day can have its quantity defined in expression like ``worked_days.WORK100.number_of_days`` which will then be multipied with the calculated percentage amount.
+  - *Percentage* : Provide Percentage.
+
+3. ``Python Expression`` : You can specify your condition by python expression.
+
+  - *Python condition* : For example, If you want to calculate Gross then you can write your expression like ``result = categories.BASIC + categories.ALW`` where ``BASIC`` and ``ALW`` are salary rule categories code.
+
+- *Child Rules* : It is used to assign child rules.
+- *Inputs* : It is used when you want to provide some Input.
+
+  - *Code* : A code for an input that can be used in salary rule. Code must be unique.
+  - *Salary Rule Input* : Selection of salary rule.
+  - *Description* : Description for an input.
+
+- *Description* : Description regarding the rule.
+
+After entering the salary rule information click Save.
+
+.. note:: Sign of amount
+
+    If you are defining a rule for Allowance then make sure that the **amount** , **percentage** or **python code** you enter is *positive*. And if its for Deduction then it has to be *negative*.
+
+.. note:: Python Expression
+
+    If you are using python code then returned value has to be set in the variable *result*.
+
+    You can also use the method() in your expression.
+    There is a sum() method available for three objects/variables i.e.payslip, worked_days, inputs. They are:
+
+    * payslip.sum(code, from_date, to_date)
+    * worked_days.sum(code, from_date, to_date)
+    * inputs.sum(code, from_date, to_date)
