Wages Tab

• Wage Type - Select whether your employee is paid per hour or is a salaried employee. If Salaried is selected you must enter the hours per pay period that are considered salaried. If Hourly is selected, the Manage Allowed Departments button will appear, giving you the chance to assign the employee to additional departments from the home department that they may accumulate time in.
  • Require Employee To Punch Clock - If salaried is selected, use this option to determine if they are required to punch in or out.
  • Weekly Salaried Hours - Used for ACA reporting, this field is used to determine how many salaried hours are to be counted per week.
  • Base Pay - Use this table to determine how much an employee makes per hour and from when. To add a new base pay use the + button. For Example, John Smith was hired for $16.00 dollars an hour starting from his hire date of 9/28/15. If he has a raise that is coming up on his anniversary to increase his base pay by $1.25 the effective date would be set to 9/28/16 and the Base Pay would be set to $17.25.
    • Effective Date - The starting date that the set base pay takes effect.
    • Base Pay - The amount an employee is paid per hour starting on the effective date.
    • Department - If an employee is allowed to work in other departments they will be listed here. Normally the Pay Rate for the department will match the Base Pay, but you are able to override the Pay Rate for individual departments if the employee makes a different amount for accumulating time in that department.
      • Department - Any additional departments the employee is allowed to accumulate time in.
      • Pay Rate - The amount of pay per hour an employee would receive for accumulating time by working in the selected department.
