Salary & Employees

This is documentation about the page Löner och anställda that you can reach by clicking Löner och anställda in the left sidebar. It allows you to create and pay out salaries, make arbetsgivardeklarationer and calculate and pay taxes and employer contributions.

Dooer Salary is, just like Dooer's other apps, completely free of charge, but it's not enabled by default. To enable, please read the section below:

Activate Dooer Salary

If you haven't enabled Dooer Salary yet, you will be greeted by a big splash screen describing the functionality of Dooer Salary when clicking the link above. If so, this guide is for you.

To get started, click the green Kom igång button.

Step 1: Generella inställningar

Here you pick whether you're registered as an employer (note that this will later be verified by syncing your tax account at Skatteverket). When selecting "Ja", you will be prompted to provide details about the following settings:

  • Intjänandeperiod
  • Semesterår
  • Lönespecifikationer
  • Kontaktperson för arbetsgivardeklaration

To continue, click Spara och fortsätt.

Step 2: Bank och betalkonton

Add bank accounts from which salary payments will be made. If you haven't already, make sure to add both your bank account(s) as well as your tax account at Skatteverket as this will verify that you are registered as an employer with Skatteverket.

To continue, click Fortsätt.

Step 3: Nästa steg

You are now ready to start using Dooer Salary.

Click Fortsätt till Dooer Lön to start.

First time splash screen

The first time you open Dooer Salary after you have activated it, you will be presented with the following two buttons:

  • Lägg till anställd (Add employee)
    Pick this option if you want to start adding employees.

  • Skapa lönekörning utan att betala ut lön (Create payroll run without paying out salary)
    Pick this option if you want to start creating salaries without having to pay out the salary. This can be used as you need to submit arbetsgivardeklarationer (AGI) to Skatteverket each month even though you're not paying out any salaries.

Pick one of the options and follow the instructions.

Create and pay out salaries

Direct link: Löner

Below is a summary of the steps you go through to create and pay out salaries. Except that you don't need to add the same employees multiple times, the steps are repeated in each pay period.

1: Add employees

Direct link: Anställda

Before you create salaries, you need to add employees to the app's register of employees.

2: Create and approve salaries

Create a payroll run to create salaries for your employees like so:

  1. Go to the page Löner.
  2. Click the line for the current month (with no status or "Utkast" (draft) as status).
  3. Follow the instructions.

3: Salary payment

When you have created payroll data, you pay out the salaries and mark the salaries as paid in the app.

4: Submit arbetsgivardeklaration (AGI)

After all the month's salaries are created and paid, it's time to submit the arbetsgivardeklaration (employer declaration).

5: Book salary

If you do your accounting in Dooer, you book the salary payment in this step.

FAQ

Do I need to be registered as an employer to use the app?

Yes, you need to be registered as an employer.

What is supported regarding vacation?

In short, Dooer Salary & Employees supports the following:

  • Vacation year following the earning year (vacation days become available as paid vacation for the employee the year after they have been earned).
  • Advance vacation and advance vacation debt. Vacation pay according to the same salary rule, taking into account the employment degree.
  • Vacation supplement with a specified (fixed) percentage rate. Direct payment of vacation supplement for hourly paid employees.

Is special income tax for non-residents (SINK) supported?

No, special income tax for non-residents (SINK) is currently not supported.

How do I get Dooer Salary & Employees to stop reminding me about salaries?

There are two things that need to be done:

  1. Deactivate all employees
  2. Make sure you're not registered as an employer with Skatteverket

To deactivate all employees, do like so:

  1. Go to the page Anställda.
  2. Click on the employee in the list.
  3. In the dialog that appears, select the tab Anställning.
  4. In the dropdown Status, choose Inaktiv - får inte lön.
  5. Click Spara.

To make sure Dooer is aware that you're no longer registered as an employer with Skatteverket, you need to sync your tax account (because then these details are also being updated). If you haven't already, you can add your tax account like a regular bank account by following this guide.

Under what conditions is a task to handle salary created?

For Dooer to send a task to handle salaries, the following is required:

  • That the customer has activated the Dooer Salary & Employees service.
  • That the customer is registered as an employer with Skatteverket.

If you are registered as an employer with Skatteverket, you must also declare salaries even during months without paid-out salary (with 0 SEK). This is something that Dooer retrieves information about from Skatteverket when you sync your account.
