## How to Set a fixed Salary Ignoring Overtime and undertime?
In this tutorial, we will learn how to **keep an employee’s salary fixed**, regardless of **overtime or undertime** in **Logic ERP**.
***
### **Create a Fixed Salary Grade**
* Navigate to the **Main Menu** → **Payroll Setup** → **Setup Grades**.
* Create a new grade for fixed salary and define the following details:
* **Grade Name**
* **Basic Salary Amount**
* **Leave Details** (Leave, Casual Leave, Sick Leave, etc.)
* Once all required details are entered, click **Save** to create the grade.
> Note: Skip the *Overtime* and *Undertime* settings since the salary should remain fixed and not vary based on attendance.
***
### **Create Employee and Assign Grade**
* Now, go to the **Employee Setup** window and create a new employee profile.
* In the **Payroll Information** section:
* Define **Date of Joining**, **Basic Pay**, **Designation**, and **Department**.
* Select the **Fixed Salary Grade** created earlier from the dropdown list.
* After entering all information, click **Save**.
***
### **Mark Attendance**
* Navigate to **Payroll Entry** and then **Attendance Register**.
* Select the employee and mark attendance as per the actual working hours.
* For example:
* If the shift time is **10:00 AM to 7:00 PM (9 hours)**, but the employee arrives **30 minutes late**, enter the actual **Time In** and **Time Out** accordingly, then click **Save**.
* The system will show **Under Time = 30 minutes** after saving.
***
### **Generate Payroll**
* Next, go to **Payroll Entry** → **Payroll Generation**.
* Select the **Payroll Month** and the **Employee**, then click **Recalculate**.
You’ll notice that the **Net Salary** remains **₹10,000**, as no overtime or undertime criteria have been defined.\
This ensures that even if the employee arrives late or leaves early, their salary remains **unchanged**.
***
### **Result**
You have successfully configured a **Fixed Salary Grade** where the employee’s salary remains constant, irrespective of **Overtime** or **Undertime** variations.
