Creating or updating a resource's allowance pay rate

Allowances are cash, noncash, or in-kind compensation assigned to a resource in addition to the base pay. For example, housing allowance (cash), discount on day care (noncash), and company car (in kind). They differ from other kinds of other pay in that they are not necessarily paid on each payroll cycle and may not be taxable.
