Override Rates

In the Employee Override Rates form (Figure 164), you can define a different pay rate for each pay code used to pay the employee. For all other pay codes, the system defaults to the employee's standard pay rate.

For example, an employee regularly works as a server but occasionally tends bar. Because the hours worked in each position vary from one week to the next, the client should have pay codes for each position. The pay voucher displays the amount earned as a server and as a bartender.

1. The Employee ID defaults from the Employee Details form.
2. For each pay code:
a. Enter the Pay Code that represents the pay to override.
b. Enter the Pay Rate for that pay code. If you leave this field blank, the system calculates the pay using the employee's rate in the payroll record. Premium pay rules apply.
3. Click Save.
