How to Select the 'Bank Crediting Date' for EPF Payments with CIMB Bank Berhad
You can schedule EPF payments for a future date by selecting the bank crediting date before generating the EPF bank file.
To set the bank crediting date, follow these steps:
- In the HR Lounge, click on Payroll.
- On the Payroll Dashboard, click on the completed payroll month.
- Depending on your payroll center's cycle setup (mono or double cycle), click on the appropriate button: Download or Mid/End/Combined Cycle.
In the "Generate bank file for CIMB Bank Berhad" pop-up window, complete the following steps:
i. Select EPF from the list of available files.
ii. Choose the employees by ticking the checkboxes in the dropdown menu.
iii. Select the Bank Crediting Date from the calendar (this step is mandatory).
iv. Click the Generate icon to download the file.
NOTE:
Ensure that the "General Information" and "Registration Information" under Payroll > Settings are completed before generating the file. Pay special attention to the following fields:
a. Address
b. Phone Number
c. Officer Name
d. Officer Position
If this information is missing from the payroll settings, the system will not be able to generate the EPF bank file. A warning message will appear, alerting you to the missing information.
To resolve this, go to Payroll > Settings > GENERAL/REGISTRATION INFORMATION, input the missing details, and click Save. You can then proceed to generate the EPF bank file.
