Employee Tax Exemption Sub Category in Frappe HR: Defining Claimable Items
An Employee Tax Exemption Sub Category is a specific exemption item an employee can claim, sitting under a tax exemption category. Where the category sets the overall cap, the sub-category is the actual line an employee declares against a particular investment, premium, or eligible expense.
You will find it under Home > Human Resources > Payroll > Employee Tax Exemption Sub Category.
BEFORE YOU START
Create the Employee Tax Exemption Category first, since each sub-category belongs to a category.
How to create a Tax Exemption Sub Category
- Open the Employee Tax Exemption Sub Category list and click New.
- Enter the sub-category name (the specific claimable item).
- Link the Exemption Category it falls under.
- Set its Maximum Amount if the item has its own individual limit.
- Save.
How sub-categories are used
When an employee makes a Tax Exemption Declaration, they declare amounts against these sub-categories. Each claim is checked against the sub-category’s own limit (if any) and rolls up to the parent category’s overall cap so the structure enforces both the per-item and the overall legal limits automatically.
TIP
Set up the full set of sub-categories your employees actually use, each under the right category. A complete, well-organised list means declarations are accurate and employees can find the right line for every investment or expense they want to claim.

SUMMARY
An Employee Tax Exemption Sub Category is a specific claimable exemption item under a category. Create it with a name, a linked exemption category, and an optional individual maximum. Employees declare amounts against sub-categories, with claims checked against both the sub-category’s own limit and the parent category’s overall cap. A complete, well-organised list keeps declarations accurate and within legal limits.
