You can access the reward form from Bezala's company settings by navigating to the "Expense forms" tab and navigating to "Rewards" and selecting "Show Reward Form."

Remember also to define "Reward reimbursement code" and "Reward alias."

Once you have activated the compensation form, proceed to create the necessary compensation types.

How to create a new reward type to Bezala

To create a new reward type:

  1. Log in to Bezala's web version.

  2. Go to the "Company Settings" page -> choose the "Reward types" tab. This view shows all the reward types in use.

  3. Click the "+ Add reward type" button.

  4. The reward type can be named freely, but the account number must correspond to one found in accounting. The price of the reward type can be fixed or free format.

  5. Also, select the correct income type for the reward for earnings reporting.

  6. If tax withholding is not deducted from the reward, check the "No tax deduction" box.

  7. If you want only certain users to be able to use the reward type you created, add their names to the "Choose resources" field. If the field is empty, any Bezala user in the environment can search for the reward.

Withholding tax

Bezala automatically reports the amount of withholding tax to the Incomes Register. The payment of the withholding tax debt must be handled separately using the accounting/payroll software used by your company.

Political party tax deduction

In Bezala, it is also possible to process the deduction of political tax from rewards. This functionality is available only to Finnish users. You can activate the functionality as follows:

  1. Go to Company settings -> Basic Settings -> Expense Forms -> Rewards -> Additional Deductions.

  2. Check the box for "Deduct Political Party Tax" and fill in the account code. The deduction will be booked to this account.

  3. Go to the Reward Types tab and check the box for "Political party tax" for the reward type.

The user also needs to select their political party from their profile, based on which the deduction amount will be calculated. Manager level user can also update this information on behalf of the user from the Users view.
