# How do we account for deductions?

All Aslan activity is handled through simple **net pay deductions.**

- **On-Demand Pay & Set & Spend**: any amounts employees access during the pay period are deducted from their net pay.
- **Payroll report**: on your agreed payroll cutoff date, you’ll download a single, easy-to-read deduction file from the Aslan admin portal or via SFTP. This file lists each employee’s unique ID, name and the total deduction for that period.
- **Payroll processing**: simply upload the file into your payroll software or share it with your provider, whichever works best for your process.
- **Balancing**: on payday, your payroll deducts these amounts from employees’ net pay and accounts will settle an Aslan invoice for any advanced funds via Direct Debit.

⚡ *No changes to PAYE, NI or pensions. Everything remains compliant and straightforward, just one extra file to process at payroll time.*
