Add a training payment type

Add a payment type in Sage HR to control how training gets paid. Set approvals, notifications, and cost rules.

Written by Oliver Cook

Payment types define how you pay for training, such as company card or cash.

You can also control approvals, notifications, and tasks linked to each payment type.


Add a payment type

  1. Click your name in the top right.

  2. Click Settings.

  3. Click Employee data, then Training.

  4. Under Payment types, click Add payment type.

  5. Enter a title for the payment type.

  6. Select the approval type required.

  7. Add an email notification recipient if needed.

  8. Add a task and deadline if required.

  9. Choose whether to make Costs mandatory.

How approvals and notifications work

  • Training added by an employee follows the approval process you set

  • Training added by an admin or manager skips approval and saves straight away

  • Email notifications based on approval only trigger when approval runs

  • 'No approval' means no approval email sends
