# Viewing the Salary Overview

Learn how to see roughly what your team costs in salary each month, by team and by employment type. Useful for budgeting or comparing salary costs.

#### Where do you find it?
Go to HR → Reports → Salary Overview.

#### What do you see?
**At the top**
* **Total monthly salaries**
* **Per FTE** and **Per employee**: the average.
* **Active employees** and **FTE**
**By Team** and **By Employment Type**: how salaries are spread, with each share of the total.

#### How does Heartsome calculate it?
The overview is an estimate based on the salary and hours in the current contract. Heartsome converts every salary to a monthly amount:
* **per hour**: × hours per week × 4.33
* **per day**: × ( hours per week ÷ 8 ) × 4.33
* **per week**: × 4.33
* **per 4 weeks**: × 4.33 ÷ 4
* **per month**: as it is
* **per year**: ÷ 12
* **fixed fee**: not counted
If someone is in more than one team, their salary is split evenly across those teams.

|| Note: these are gross salaries as stated in the contract. Employer costs, holiday pay, bonuses and a 13th month aren't included. For the real salary costs, check your payroll.

|| Note: only colleagues with the status Active are counted. Anyone not yet invited to Heartsome, or who hasn't accepted their invitation, isn't included.
