Pay rate defaulting order

Alternate rates

• If an alternate rate is defined for the employee, that rate is used instead of the work assignment pay rate.

• Employee Other Pay Rate’s Category should be set to Alternate Rate. Use this criteria for alternate rate:

  • Date range includes time record date

  • Position, org unit, and location is either not entered or entered and match the time record values (which populate from work assignment)

  • Pay Code is either not entered or matches the one on the time record

    Note: 

    We recommend that you define a pay code on the alternate rate record or the alternate rate is used to override all pay codes.

    You can also assign the alternate rate to a pay class that is comprised of multiple pay codes.

  • Currency matches the one on the time record (which populates from work assignment)

• When a time record is created, the alternate rate is used if criteria is met (currency, pay code, time record date, etc.)

• Pay Rate re-populates upon any update on the time record (pay code changes, date changes, blank out pay rate, etc.)

• The alternate rate field also displays the value to indicate an alternate rate was used

Work assignment pay rate

• If no alternate rate is defined or the criteria is not met, the pay rate is populated from the work assignment as of the time record date

• Pay Rate re-populates upon any update on the time record (pay code changes, date changes, blank out pay rate, etc.)

Add-on rates

• If there are add-on rates defined for the employee, they are added to the work assignment pay rate

• Employee Other Pay Rate’s Category should be set to Add On Rate or Add On Percent Of pay Rate. Use this criteria for other pay rate:

  • Date range includes time record date

  • Position, org unit, and location are either not specified or are specified and match the time record values (which populate from work assignment)

  • Pay Code is either not specified or matches the one on the time record

    Note: 

    We recommend that you define a pay code on the add on rate record or the add on rate is used to override all pay codes.

    You can also assign the add-on rate to a pay class that is comprised of multiple pay codes.

  • Currency is either not specified or matches the one on the time record (which populates from work assignment)

  • Include in Total Pay Rate must be selected

• When a time record is created, the add-on rate is added to the work assignment pay rate if criteria is met (currency, pay code, time record date, etc.).

• Pay Rate re-populates upon any update on the time record (pay code changes, date changes, blank out pay rate, etc.).

• The add-on rate field also shows the value to indicate an add-on rate was used.
