Job rate changes

Job rates are assigned by the rule engine so that employees are paid appropriately for the jobs they work. Any change to the job rates can create inaccurate employee records. You can configure the Recalculate Task so that, if the rate for a job changes, all work summaries on and after the effective date of the change are recalculated.

If the effective date for a job changes, the task recalculates all work summaries that are after the earliest of the old and new effective date.

This parameter of the Recalculate Task is relevant to the recalculation of employee records for job rate changes:
