You can add pay rates from within the Manage rates module. The Add pay rates option will be positioned in the top-right corner.

You have the option to add:

  • Employee pay rates.

Note: When adding a pay rate, ensure your payroll settings at site level match the pay rate type.

Add pay rates in Manage rates

First, select which pay rate type you'd like to add.

You can add employee, site, branch default or combination pay rates

Let's look at adding an employee pay rate.

Note: Site, Combination and Branch pay rates will require different data.

You'll need to define:

  • Employee(s)

  • Service(s)

  • Effective date

  • Rate

If you choose more than one service, this will create multiple lines per employee.

You'll need to define the employee, service, effective date and rate to add an employee pay rate

Once you've chosen your employee(s), service(s), effective date and rate, proceed to press the Add # pay rates.

Click Add # pay rates to lock the new rates in

Once the rates are locked in, you can click Save to complete.

Click Save to add the pay rates into the Manage rates module

You'll need to determine whether you want to Apply to past and new shifts or Apply to new shifts only. Here's what they mean:

  • Apply to past and new shifts allows you to force the system to recalculate back to the effective date.

  • Apply to new shifts means that only new or future shifts will show the updated rate.

Once chosen, your rate(s) will be added to the employee profile.

Click Apply to past and new if you're backdating your rate(s), or Apply to new shifts if you're only updating your rate(s) for future shifts

Update rates in Manage rates

Once a rate is saved, you're still able to update the rate at any time.

You'll first need to select the rate(s) that you want to change by checkmarking it. Then, you'll notice the Update rate option becomes available in the top-right corner. Alternatively, you can click the wrench tool > Update rate.

Note: You can update multiple rates at once by checkmarking them.

Update rate(s) in Manage rates

The next step is to determine whether you want to replace, increase or decrease the existing rate(s).

You'll need to select:

  • Replace with.

  • Increase by.

  • Decrease by.

Choose whether you want to replace the rate(s), increase the rate(s) or decrease the rate(s)

Replace with

The Replace with allows you to choose a rate that replaces the existing rate.

To complete the replacement, ensure you click Update # rates.

Replace with allows you to replace the rate with an entirely new rate

Increase by and Decrease by

Increase by and Decrease by allows you to choose an amount or percentage to increase or decrease by.

Increase by and Decrease by allow you to increase or decrease a rate by an amount or percentage

Let's look at an example.

We'll increase the rate for Brianna Lewis as an Armed Guard at $25.00 by 10%.

The rate highlighted is the example rate that will be increased by 10%

Once the shift is checkmarked, we'll press Update rate > Increase by > Percent > 10.

To complete, click Update # rates.

Using the Increase by option to increase the rate by 10%

Once confirmed if you're applying the shift to past and new, or just new, you'll see the rates have now increased by 10% to $27.50.

The rate has now increase by 10% from $25.00 to $27.50

Delete rates in Manage rates

To delete a rate, check mark it > click the wrench tool (top-right) > Delete rate.

Note: You can delete multiple rates at once by checkmarking them and performing the same process as above.
