Creating a Maternity Payment Schedule

Before you begin to set up a Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) claim, you must create a Maternity Leave calendar event. The Calendar of Events is the core control record for each employee which will hold all periods of absence.

Within the SMP claim, you can calculate the weeks for maternity payment.

To calculate the weeks

Navigate to the Maternity Pay tab.
Go to Cintra iQ: Employment Record> Forms> Parental Payments
Open the desired record. The SMP Claim window appears.
Select the Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) tab.
Click the MPP Weeks button. The MPP Weeks window appears.
Click the Calculate Weeks button. The break down of the weekly payments appear in the Weeks in Maternity Pay Period (MPP). The summary record on the Maternity Pay tab will show the current YTD information.
