Feb: Generate a similar payslip, but add an Other Input Type for the Commission.
Mar: Apply for one full-paid annual leave in March. The salary compensation for the leave taken is based on ADW thus far.
Apr: Apply for a 1-day non-full pay leave in April. Since this is a non-full pay leave, the ADW is computed accordingly.
