Recurring Payment Guide - How to set up, edit or remove – Humi

Setting up a recurring payment amount makes it easy to pay your employees for any recurring expenses they have, such as car allowances, cell phone allowances, or gym reimbursements.

This feature saves time by automatically adding the payment amount each pay period, so you won't need to enter them manually. You'll have more time to focus on what truly matters—taking care of your team.

Set Up The Income Type

For a seamless setup, you should add the income type needed for the recurring payment before configuring it in payroll. Learn how to add a new Income Type here.

How To Set Up A Recurring Payment

In Payroll, click on the Income Types tab.
Select the income type for which you want to make a recurring payment. If you don't see the income type you need on this table, you may need to add a new income type.
Find the employee to whom you want to add a recurring payment, click the three dots on their row, and choose Add Amount.
In this pop-up, add the recurring amount and click Save.
You'll now see that the recurring amount has been added to the employee under the Amount per period column.
Going forward, when you process payroll, this recurring amount will automatically be populated in the "Other" field of the Extra Pay column.

Edit a Recurring Payment

If the recurring amount for an employee has changed, you can quickly edit it in a few clicks.

In Payroll, click on the Income Types tab.
Click on the Income Type of the recurring amount.
Find the employee whose recurring payment needs to be adjusted, click the three dots, and select Edit from the dropdown.
Change the amount and click Save.

The recurring payment has been updated to the new amount you entered.

Remove the Recurring Payment

You can easily remove the recurring payment from the employee if you no longer need the recurring payment.

In Payroll, click on the Income Types tab.
Click on the Income Type of the recurring amount.
Find the employee whose recurring payment needs to be removed, click the three dots, and select Remove from the dropdown.

The payment is removed and will no longer be populated when you run payroll.

One-Time Adjustment of the Recurring Amount

If you need to do a one-time adjustment for a recurring amount, you can do this when you run payroll for that pay period.

On the Edit Payroll page, locate the employee you need using the search box or by scrolling down.
You'll see the pre-filled recurring amount in the Other field within the Extra Pay column. Click on it to edit the amount in the pop-up that appears, and then click Save.

The amount has been adjusted for this pay period. You can continue running payroll as normal.
