Proof of Investment (POI) is a process where the employees provide documents to validate their investment claims, enabling them to qualify for tax benefits as per their country's income tax laws during the tax filing process.

After customizing the POI Settings, the next step is to release and manage the POI declaration form to the employees. The greytHR Admin portal POI Overview page allows you to release and manage the POI declaration forms under the Yet to be released tab and Released tab in the following ways:

1. Release POI form in bulk.

2. Release POI for an individual employee.

3. Remind employees to declare POI.
