Step-by-Step Setup

How the Calculation Works

  1. Settlement Data Reference:

      The system retrieves the $AMOUNT from the settlement.

      It also identifies the Mileage Plus value from the same record row.

  1. Adjustment Calculation:

      The system calculates the Adjusted $AMOUNT as follows: ($AMOUNT - Mileage Plus)

  1. Percentage Calculation:

      The percentage rate is applied to the Adjusted $AMOUNT to determine the final payment value for payroll.

Example Scenario

      Original $AMOUNT: $500

      Mileage Plus: $50

      Percentage Rate: 10%

Adjusted $AMOUNT Calculation:

500 - 50 = 450

Final Payment:

      450 ×10% = 45
