How does the system calculate financial refund tiers based on days worked?

Under labor ministry regulations governing recruitment, the system applies automated schedules to calculate sponsor refunds:

  2. The refund percentage from office and agency fees is calculated according to days worked by the worker with the sponsor during probation (e.g., prorated monthly deduction).

Frequently asked questions

Why do passport and national ID numbers appear masked with asterisks?

To safeguard personal data and comply with privacy protection laws, the system automatically masks worker passport numbers and sponsor ID numbers in the database so they appear masked (e.g., **A1234). To view the unmasked number, a user must have the View Sensitive Data** permission (manpower.workers.view_sensitive), and each access is logged in the security audit trail.

Why does the system prevent advancing to the next stage in a recruitment file?

The system enforces sequential mandatory gates to guarantee legal and financial integrity:

  1. Cannot advance to the Visa stage prior to payment of the contract deposit.
  2. Cannot advance to the Ticket stage before entering the visa number and uploading its copy.
  3. Presence of missing mandatory documents in the current stage.

(An authorized office director can override these rules using the Override Rules button under exceptional circumstances).

Why does the message "Cannot cancel a posted payment receipt" appear?

If a receipt voucher has been posted to accounting ledgers and the financial period has closed, the system disallows direct receipt cancellation to protect trial balance consistency. The standard procedure is to issue an adjustment voucher or a refund credit note.
