How do I apply a rate change to a pay code?

Increase or decrease a pay code by a percentage.

A rate is a charge, payment, or price fixed according to a ratio, scale, or standard. When the ratio, scale, or standard changes, run Calculate Rate Changes to increase or decrease a pay code by a percentage.

Note: If the employee is tied to a pay schedule, you must modify the pay schedule, not the hourly rate, to adjust the pay rate.


Calculating a rate change for a pay code

1. Open Connect Payroll > Employees > Calculate Rate Changes.

2. Click to select the option titled Pay Codes.

3. Click to select the field titled Rate Change.

4. To increase the rate, enter the percentage to increase the rate. To decrease the rate, type the percentage to decrease the rate followed by a minus sign (-).

Example: Enter "10" to increase a pay code or enter "10-" to decrease a pay code.


5. Find the section titled Pay Codes, and then click Select.

The Selection form displays.


6. Click to select the pay codes to include in the rate change. Move the pay codes to the Selected Pay Codes list, and then click OK.

7. Click GO (CTRL+G).

The rate change is calculated and applied to the pay code.
