This glossary explains, in plain language, the terms you see on Teamso's payroll screens. Amounts are calculated by the payroll calculation service integrated with Teamso; rates and limits are that year's statutory parameters. You can see the current values on Payroll > Settings > Payroll Parameters (read-only). This glossary does not quote statutory figures.
The item names in the preview breakdown (Payroll Summary tab) are shown in your interface language. The payslip and the payroll reports keep the statutory Turkish names.
