Kwanta: gross salary in kwanzas from net pay in dollars or euros

Kwanta is a Sevways add-on for Cegid PRIMAVERA that calculates the gross salary in kwanzas for employees hired on a net salary in dollars or euros. The calculation is done in bulk, within the payroll run, using the month's exchange rate. It is for companies in Angola with employees, local or expatriate, whose contract sets the net salary in foreign currency. Sevways sells, implements and supports it.
