# How can I schedule earnings that are part of an employee’s CTC in Zoho Payroll?

**Note:** This feature is only available in early access. Contact [support@zohopayroll.com](mailto:support@zohopayroll.com) to get access for your organisation.

If the earning you are scheduling is a part of CTC or salary structure of an employee, you will be able to choose the preferred payout month in the employee’s salary details page. Here’s how:

**Note:** You will only be able to schedule the earning while editing the employee’s salary details, if you want to make the scheduled earning as a part of the CTC.

*   Click **Employees** on the left sidebar and select an employee.
*   Switch to the **Salary Details** tab.
*   Click **Edit** next to Salary Details.
*   Select the **Above CTC includes One Time Earnings** option.
*   Click **Schedule Payment** below the preferred earning and select the payout month for the scheduled the earning.
*   Enter the annual amount you want to pay the employee for the scheduled earning.
*   Click **Save.**

The scheduled earning will be processed in the payroll of the payout month.

**Pro-tip:** Similarly, during an employee’s salary revision, you can schedule earnings for a specific month without affecting any previously scheduled payments from past revisions.
