Payroll - Employee Pay Rate
This task is accessed
from the Display additional options button 
on the
Employee maintenance form.
Function
This option is used to define and maintain employee titles, pay rates, and standard hours worked. The information is used during Payroll Automatic Processing to automatically generate standard pay. Additionally, pay rate changes may be recorded by date and, optionally, by increase or decrease in the number of hours worked. This option may be used at any time to change information for the employee.

About the Fields
In the Title Cd field...
-
Enter a valid title code.
-
Click
to select from a list of valid codes.
In the Standard Rate field...
-
Enter the full salary for the salaried employee’s pay period.
-
Enter the hourly rate for the hourly employee’s pay period.
-
Enter 0.00 when the pay rate in the standard title ID is correct. A change in title ID rate will automatically change this employee’s pay.
-
Press Enter to accept the default.
NOTE:
Refer to the standard rates assigned to each title as shown on the Title Code Report. Employees with the same title may have different pay rates, (e.g., there may be different rates for a beginning and an experienced employee even though they have the same title and job function).
When the employee’s current rate is equal to the standard rate in the
title code, do not enter a rate here. This allows a default to the
standard rate at payroll entry. Consequently, if the standard rate
should change, the change should be made only in the title code and
not in every employee’s masterfile.
In the Standard Hours field...
-
Enter the number of hours that the employee normally works.
This entry allows the automatic generation of earnings for both salaried and hourly employees each pay period. When this field is left blank (e.g., no standard number of hours is assigned for a particular title), earnings for salaried employees are generated during automatic earning generation. However, hours for hourly employees must be manually entered in Payroll Entry for payroll to be generated.
