SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Month-end payroll requires verifying that statutory deductions for EPF (KWSP), SOCSO (PERKESO), EIS (SIP), and PCB tax match Malaysian contribution tables, and errors or late remittances trigger penalties from KWSP, PERKESO, and LHDN. This Skill automates that verification and produces the reconciliation journal and remittance schedule. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Statutory Contribution Verification: Recomputes EPF, SOCSO, EIS, and PCB amounts per employee against current contribution tables and wage ceilings, flagging mismatches with the payroll register. - Payroll Reconciliation Journal: Posts the month-end journal (wages expense Dr; EPF, SOCSO, EIS, PCB, and net salary payables Cr) via existing acct_* accounting tools. - Remittance Scheduling: Aggregates totals per statutory body and records due dates (15th of the following month) in a remittance calendar. - Use Case: After processing August payroll for 45 employees, run the audit to confirm each employee's EPF at 11%/13%, SOCSO capped at RM5,000 wages, and PCB per LHDN e-PCB, then generate the journal and remittance calendar before the 15 September deadline. ## Quick Start Audit the August 2026 payroll register in the finance gbrain source and produce the statutory contribution schedule and remittance calendar.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify EPF, SOCSO, EIS, and PCB deductions after running payroll?

Load the monthly payroll register from the finance gbrain source, then recompute each statutory amount per the current contribution tables: EPF at 11% employee and 13% employer, SOCSO and EIS per their schedules, and PCB via the LHDN e-PCB calculation. Computed amounts are matched against the register deduction lines.

What is the SOCSO and EIS wage ceiling for contributions?

SOCSO contributions are capped at RM5,000 gross monthly wages under the current schedule, and EIS contributions are similarly capped under the Employment Insurance System Act 2017. Wages above the ceiling do not attract additional contributions.

When are EPF, SOCSO, EIS, and PCB remittances due in Malaysia?

EPF, SOCSO/EIS, and PCB remittances are all due by the 15th of the following month. The skill records these due dates in a remittance calendar at finance/statutory/remittance-calendar.json to avoid late-payment penalties from KWSP, PERKESO, and LHDN.

Does this skill handle contractor withholding tax or expense claims?

No. Contractor and agent WHT tracking is handled by the malaysia-contractor-cp58-wht skill, and expense reimbursement audits belong to the expense-claim-audit skill. This skill covers only employee payroll statutory contributions.

Why do computed EPF amounts differ from the payroll register?

EPF rates vary by employee age and salary band, so applying a flat rate without checking the current KWSP contribution table causes mismatches. Foreign employees on certain work passes may also be exempt from SOCSO/EIS, which affects the expected amounts.
