Select Chart of Setup from the Employer / Setup drop down menu. Click on the Payment Setup link in the Payment & Deduction section. You can find the list of preset deduction items that cannot be edited. If these do not meet your requirements you can create your own payment items.

Enter the Payment type in the box given and state whether you would like to include the payment item in Gross Pay before or after PAYE tax ,NIC and/or Pension contributions are calculated

If you select Yes, the payment item will be included in the employee’s pay before PAYE tax, NICs and Pension Contributions are calculated. If you select No, the payment item will be included after PAYE tax, NICs and Pension Contributions are calculated.

Occurrence refers to how often the payment item will be applied to the employee's wages. If the occurrence is set as 'Recurring', the payment item will automatically be included in the employee's wages each and every time the employee's pay is calculated. If the occurrence is set as 'Non-Recurring', the payment item will only apply on a one-off basis in the next pay calculation you run for the employee and after that it will not automatically reappear. Further, click on the Save button to save the entered data.
