In Weplanify, a new element is created by answering five questions; the sentence on the right sums up what you decide as you go ("The 9 employees of Entrepôt Rufisque receive 15,000, every month").

## Good to know

- **Subject to tax** adds the amount to taxable gross; **Subject to contributions**, to the contribution base. What must be depends on your country's rule.
- **Guaranteed net amount** recomputes the gross so that the employee receives exactly the amount entered.
- After a change, recompute the month's [payslips](https://weplanify.io/docs/paie.bulletins?lang=en).
