Complete User Guide

Before you begin, get these three basics clear. They save a lot of time later.

1.1 The four user types

Important: Everyone registered in the system automatically becomes an Employee. The Admin or Manager role sits on top of that. So a Manager can also clock in and apply for leave like any other employee.

1.2 One URL for everyone

No matter which company you belong to, everyone logs in at the same address:

https://jagastaff.com/login

The system recognises your company automatically from the account that logs in. You do not need to type your company name into the URL.

The company code (slug) you choose at registration is used only for your public careers page: jagastaff.com/jobs/your-company-code

1.3 Your data is kept separate

Even though every company uses the same address, each company's data is fully isolated. You will only ever see your own company's employees, payroll and records.

Step 2.1 — Open the registration form

1. Go to https://jagastaff.com
2. Click the Get Started or Register button at the top of the page
3. You will be taken to the Register Your Company page

Step 2.2 — Fill in your company details

Step 2.3 — Create the Admin account

Step 2.4 — Answer the security question

At the bottom of the form there is a simple arithmetic question, for example:

What is 7 + 4 ?   [ ____ ]

Enter the answer. This stops robots from registering automatically.

Step 2.5 — Submit

Click Register. You will see the message:

Registration received! Please check hr@contoso.com to verify your company within 24 hours.

⚠️ The verification link is valid for 24 hours only. If you miss it, contact support to have it resent.

Step 3.1 — Open your email

Check the inbox of the Contact Email you entered. Look for an email titled:

Verify Your Company Email — JagaStaff

If it is not in your Inbox, check your Spam / Junk folder.

Step 3.2 — Click the verification link

Click the Verify Email button inside that email.

Step 3.3 — The system prepares your account

Automatically, within a few seconds, the system will:

1. ✅ Create your Admin login account
2. ✅ Grant it the full Admin role
3. ✅ Start your company's trial period
4. ✅ Set up a dedicated data space for your company

You will see a success page with a Login Now button.

Step 3.4 — Write down your login details

Address  : https://jagastaff.com/login
Email    : (the Admin Email you registered)
Password : (the one you set during registration)

Step 4.1 — Log in

1. Go to https://jagastaff.com/login
2. Enter your Email and Password
3. Click Login

You will be taken straight to the Admin Dashboard.

Step 4.2 — Get to know the main screen

Left sidebar — every menu in the system, grouped into sections:

• Main — Dashboard
• Account — My Profile
• Team Management — (for Managers)
• Self Service — for your own use
• Administration — for Admins only

Top bar — the notification bell 🔔 and your account menu.

A menu is missing? Some menus only appear if your subscription plan includes that module (for example Payroll or Recruitment). Check under Subscription.

Step 4.3 — If you forget your password

1. On the login page, click Forgot Password?
2. Enter your email
3. Click Send Magic Link
4. Open the email and click the link that was sent — you will be logged straight in
5. Go to My Profile to set a new password

⚠️ The system allows only 5 login attempts per minute. If you get locked out, wait a minute.

Follow this order. Each step depends on the one before it — for example, you cannot assign a shift to an employee until the shift exists.

Menu: Sidebar → Settings

What you enter here appears on payslips, official letters and the EA Form. Get it right from the start.

6.1 Company Information

💡 Logo tip: Use a transparent PNG around 200×60 pixels for the best result.

6.2 Working Hours

⚠️ Important: Work Start Time is the default. If an employee is assigned a specific shift, that shift's times are used instead of this default.

6.3 Save

Click Save Settings at the bottom.

Menu: Sidebar → Departments

Every employee must belong to a department. Departments drive reporting, filtering and recruitment.

How to add a department

1. Click Add Department
2. Fill in:
   • Name — for example Human Resources, Finance, Operations, IT
   • Description — (optional) a short description
3. Click Save

Repeat for every department in your company.

Suggested starting departments

Management          Human Resources
Finance & Accounts  Sales & Marketing
Operations          Information Technology

Edit / Delete

• Edit — click the pencil icon on the department's row
• Delete — click the bin icon

⚠️ Do not delete a department that still has employees in it. Move those employees to another department first.

Menu: Sidebar → Shifts

Skip this section if all your employees work the same office hours.

How to add a shift

1. Click Add Shift
2. Fill in:

3. Click Save

A complete example shift set

Night shifts (crossing midnight)

For a shift such as 20:00 → 06:00, just enter it as normal. The system understands that an end time earlier than the start time means the shift crosses midnight.

Important: The shift assigned to an employee is stored on the record at every clock in. So if you change a shift next month, past attendance records will not change. This keeps your history accurate.

Menu: Sidebar → Office Locations

Use this if you want employees to only be able to clock in while at the office.

Step 9.1 — Get your office coordinates

1. Open Google Maps on a computer
2. Search for your office location
3. Right-click exactly on the office building
4. The top number in the menu is the coordinate pair, for example: 3.139003, 101.686855
5. Click it to copy

The first number = Latitude · The second number = Longitude

Step 9.2 — Enter it into the system

1. Click Add Location
2. Fill in:

3. Click Save

Choosing a radius

⚠️ Do not set it too tight. Phone GPS is typically only accurate to within 10–50 metres. A 50-metre radius can stop employees who are genuinely inside the office from clocking in. 100 metres is a safe starting point.

Step 9.3 — Turn it on for employees

Geofencing is not applied automatically. You must set it on each employee:

Go to the employee record → the Attendance Restriction field → choose Office Only

Employees set to Anywhere can clock in from any location.

Menu: Sidebar → Leave Types

This is the most important part of the setup. Every setting here has a direct effect on pay.

How to add a leave type

Click Add Leave Type and fill in:

Basic information

Key settings (checkboxes)

☑ Is Paid Leave? Tick this if the leave is paid. Untick it for unpaid leave.

☑ Automatically create payroll deduction for approved leave under this type Tick this if leave of this type should be deducted from pay automatically.

• Annual Leave / Medical Leave → do not tick
• Unpaid Leave → tick

☑ Affects Attendance Tick this if a day of this leave counts as "absent" in attendance reports.

☑ Allow/Require Supporting Document Tick this if the employee must upload a document (for example a doctor's medical certificate).

☑ Is Emergency Leave Applicable? Tick this to switch on the emergency leave rules. Two extra fields then appear:

Recommended leave type set (per the Malaysian Employment Act)

💡 You must have an Unpaid Leave type. The system needs a leave type named "Unpaid" in order to convert emergency leave applications that exceed the cap. Without it, the employee's application is rejected with an error message.

How emergency leave works in practice

Settings: Emergency Leave · Notice Period = 1 day · Limit = 3 days

Menu: Sidebar → Claim Types

How to add one

1. Click Add Claim Type
2. Fill in:

3. Click Save

Suggested claim types

Menu: Sidebar → Payroll → Settings

This is where you define every allowance (Addition) and deduction (Deduction) that can appear on a payslip.

12.1 Add a new item

Click Add Item Type. A form appears.

12.2 Overtime (OT) settings

If the item is for overtime, also fill in:

An OT item set per the Malaysian Employment Act

12.3 Automatic deductions (Auto Formula)

This is a powerful feature — the system can deduct from pay automatically based on attendance.

Inside a Deduction item form, find the Auto Formula section:

Example 1 — Lateness deduction

Name    : Late Deduction
Type    : Deduction
Trigger : Late Attendance
Count By: Minutes
Rate    : 1.00          → RM1 for every minute late
Free Allowance : 15     → the first 15 minutes are forgiven

An employee 25 minutes late → an RM10.00 deduction (25 − 15 = 10 minutes)

Example 2 — Unpaid leave deduction

Name    : Unpaid Leave Deduction
Type    : Deduction
Trigger : Unpaid Leave
Count By: Days
Method  : Daily rate (salary ÷ working days)

The system deducts automatically based on the employee's daily rate.

Example 3 — Absence deduction

Name    : Absence Deduction
Type    : Deduction
Trigger : Absence
Count By: Days
Method  : Daily rate

12.4 Other recurring allowances & deductions

⚠️ Understand "Subject to EPF/SOCSO/EIS" When ticked, this allowance is added to basic salary before EPF/SOCSO/EIS are calculated, which raises the contributions. Refer to the EPF guidelines to decide which allowances are subject to contribution.

Menu: Sidebar → Calendar

13.1 Import Malaysian public holidays

1. Click the Import Holidays button
2. The system fills in the Malaysian public holiday list automatically
3. Review the list and delete any that do not apply to your state

13.2 Add your own events

1. Click a date in the calendar
2. Enter the event name and type
3. Click Save

Good for: state holidays, company days, annual general meetings, and factory shutdown days.

💡 Why this matters for payroll: The system reads this calendar to decide whether overtime worked on a given day counts as Public Holiday OT (a higher rate) or ordinary OT.

Menu: Sidebar → Employees → the Add Employee button

This is the longest form in the system. It creates three things at once:

1. The employee record
2. A login account
3. A payroll profile

The form is split into sections. We cover them one at a time.

14.1 Section: Account & Basic Information

⚠️ IMPORTANT — default password If you leave the Password field blank, the employee's password is password123. The system sends the employee a welcome email containing these login details. Tell employees to change their password the first time they log in, via My Profile.

14.2 Section: Organisation Structure

⚠️ Direct Superior must be filled in for any employee who needs to apply for leave. If it is blank, their leave applications will not reach anyone for approval.

14.3 Section: Work Settings

14.4 Section: Employment Information

14.5 Section: Salary & Statutory ⭐

This is the most critical section. A mistake here means wrong pay.

Worker type

What this choice affects:

Salary basis

The three Salary Basis options:

If you choose Daily Rated, you must also pick the calculation method:

Contribution rates

⚠️ PCB must be calculated manually. Use the official LHDN PCB calculator, then enter the amount here. The system deducts this amount every month until you change it.

Overtime rule

If you choose Replacement Leave, the system credits replacement leave automatically when payroll is processed, instead of paying money.

14.6 Section: Statutory Numbers

14.7 Section: Bank Details

14.8 Section: Recurring Allowances & Deductions

At the bottom of the form there are two tables: Recurring Additions and Recurring Deductions.

Anything entered here appears automatically every month in this employee's pay.

For each row:

• Type — choose from the payroll items you created in Step 7
• Amount (RM) — the amount
• Description — a note (optional)

Example:

14.9 Section: Other Details

14.10 Save

Click Save Employee.

The system will:

1. ✅ Create the login account
2. ✅ Send a welcome email with the login details
3. ✅ Create the employee record
4. ✅ Create the payroll profile
5. ✅ Save the recurring allowances & deductions

14.11 Managing existing employees

Menu: Sidebar → Employees

Note on changing passwords: When editing an employee, leave the Password field blank if you do not want to change their password. Fill it in only when you need to reset it.

Menu: Sidebar → Leave Entitlements

Once all employees are registered, you must set how many days of leave each person is entitled to this year.

⚠️ Without this step, employees' leave balances are zero and they cannot see their entitlement.

15.1 Set entitlements for many employees at once (recommended)

1. Click Add Entitlement
2. In the Employee list, hold Ctrl and click to select several employees at once
3. Fill in:

4. Click Save

The system creates a separate record for each employee you selected.

15.2 Repeat for every leave type

You need to repeat this process for each leave type that carries an annual entitlement.

Suggested entitlements (per the Employment Act 1955)

Annual Leave — by length of service:

Sick Leave — by length of service:

Others:

💡 Carried Forward: In your first year on the system, enter 0. In later years, enter the balance from last year that your company policy allows to be carried forward.

15.3 How the system calculates the balance

Leave Balance = (Total Days + Carried Forward) − Approved Leave This Year

16.1 For Employees — Clocking In

1. Log in from your phone or computer
2. Go to Attendance in the sidebar
3. Click the blue Clock In button

If your phone asks for location permission — click "Allow".

⚠️ The Clock In button stays greyed out (disabled) until the system has successfully read your GPS location. Give it a few seconds.

What happens:

• The system records your clock in time
• The system records your GPS location
• The system works out whether you are late against your shift
• If you are set to Office Only, the system checks that you are inside the office area

Error messages you may see:

16.2 For Employees — Clocking Out

23.1 Checklist BEFORE processing payroll

Check all of this first. Mistakes are far easier to fix before payroll is processed.

• Every attendance record for the month is correct and complete
• Every attendance correction request has been approved/rejected
• Every leave application for the month has been approved/rejected
• OT records are complete
• New employees have been registered
• Leavers have been updated (status + end date)
• Salary changes have been updated in the employee profiles
• Each employee's PCB amount has been updated

23.2 Create a payroll run

1. Sidebar → Payroll
2. Click Create Payroll Run
3. Choose the Month and Year
4. Click Create

⚠️ A month can have only one payroll run. If one already exists, the system warns you.

23.3 What the system calculates automatically

For every active employee, the system will:

1. Determine the basic salary — following the Salary Basis (Monthly / Daily / Hourly)
2. Apply recurring allowances & deductions — from the employee's profile
3. Calculate automatic deductions:
   • Lateness deduction (if configured)
   • Unpaid leave deduction
   • Absence deduction
4. Calculate OT pay — from that month's OT records, according to the type of day
5. Credit replacement leave — if the employee is set to Replacement Leave
6. Calculate statutory contributions:
   • EPF — at the percentage in the profile
   • SOCSO — per the official schedule
   • EIS — per the official schedule
   • PCB — the fixed amount from the profile
7. Calculate net pay

The final formula:

Gross Salary     = Basic Salary + Total Allowances

Total Deductions = EPF (Employee)
                 + SOCSO (Employee)
                 + EIS (Employee)
                 + PCB
                 + Other Deductions

Net Salary       = Gross Salary − Total Deductions

Note: Statutory contributions are calculated on basic salary plus any allowance ticked as "Subject to EPF/SOCSO/EIS".

23.4 Review the results

You are taken to the payroll run detail page. The table shows every employee with these columns:

Check carefully:

• Is the basic salary right for every employee?
• Do the automatic deductions look reasonable?
• Is the OT pay accurate?
• Do the statutory contributions match what you expected?

23.5 Add a manual allowance or deduction

For any employee in the table:

1. Click the Additions/Deductions button (blue icon) on that employee's row
2. Click Add Item
3. Choose the item type, enter the amount and a description
4. Click Save

The system recalculates that employee's pay automatically.

When you would use this:

• A one-off bonus
• Paying out a claim through payroll
• A special salary adjustment
• An irregular loan deduction

23.6 Edit an employee's pay details

1. Click the Edit button (yellow icon) on the employee's row
2. Change the values you need to
3. Click Save

⚠️ If you change the Basic Salary manually, the system recalculates EPF, SOCSO, and EIS automatically against the new value.

23.7 Recalculate everything

If you made many changes to attendance or leave records after the payroll run was created:

Click Recalculate at the top of the page.

⚠️ WARNING: Recalculate deletes every manual adjustment you made and recalculates from scratch. The system asks you to confirm before it proceeds.

23.8 Finalize

Once everything has been checked and is correct:

1. Click the Finalize button at the top
2. Confirm in the warning box that appears

After finalizing:

• ✅ The status changes from Draft to Completed

Go back to the Payroll list and click the delete icon on that run.

⚠️ All of that run's data is lost.

Make sure:

• Company information is complete (including the Registration No)
• Every employee has a tax number (TIN/LHDN)
• Employees' EPF, SOCSO, and EIS numbers are complete

⚠️ EA Form data is taken only from payroll runs with the status Completed. Runs still in Draft are not counted.

Menu: Sidebar → My Profile

Every user can update their own details here.

27.1 What you can update yourself

Click Save Changes after making changes.

Fields such as name, position, department, and salary can only be changed by an Admin.

27.2 Change your password

In the Change Password section:

1. Enter your Current Password
2. Enter a New Password
3. Enter Confirm New Password
4. Click Update Password

⚠️ The current password is required. This protects your account if you forget to log out on a shared computer.

New employees: change your default password123 password right now.

Menu: Sidebar → Roles (Admins only)

28.1 Built-in roles

These roles are marked System in the list and cannot be edited or deleted. They are shared by every company on the platform, so a change by one company would affect all the others.

28.2 Create a custom role

1. Click Create Role
2. Fill in:

3. Tick the permissions to grant
4. Click Save Role

A role you create belongs to your company alone — other companies neither see it nor are affected by it. It appears in the list with Edit and Delete buttons.

Name already taken? A role name must be unique within your company, and must not clash with the System roles above.

28.3 Assign a role to an employee

Go to Employees → edit the employee → the Additional System Roles field → choose the role.

Hold Ctrl to select more than one.

Remember: Everyone always holds the Employee role. Other roles are additional.

Menu: Sidebar → Subscription

29.1 Check your subscription status

This page shows:

• Your current plan
• Your subscription or trial end date
• The list of available plans

29.2 Upgrade or renew

1. Choose the plan you want
2. Choose the billing cycle tab: Monthly or Yearly
3. Click the Choose / Renew button on that tab
4. You are taken to the Billplz payment page
5. Complete the payment (FPX online banking or credit card)
6. You are returned to the system and your subscription is updated

Why a button rather than a link? Pressing the button opens a real bill, so it is submitted as a secure form. It cannot be triggered by simply opening a URL, and the old admin/subscription/pay/... link now returns a 404.

Payment went through but the subscription has not updated? Do not pay again. The system re-checks the bill status directly with Billplz, so a valid payment will be activated. Contact support with your bill number.

29.3 When a subscription expires

💡 Renew before it expires to avoid disruption. Your data stays safe and everything returns to normal as soon as payment is received.

29.4 Modules by plan

Some menus only appear if your plan includes that module:

If a menu you need is missing, upgrade your plan.

Use this module to reach the JagaStaff support team directly.
