Note: Add Basic Pay , HRA , Conveyance and Overtime before adding the ESI Deduction pay head in the Salary Details screen because the calculation for ESI is dependant on these pay heads.

Also, when multiple pay heads are added into the formula for calculation, ensure that the independent pay heads appear first, and the dependent pay heads, later. For example , HRA is dependant on Basic Pay and as a result, Basic Pay should appear first in the list, followed by HRA.
