Position pay rates

Position pay rates are one means of providing values for salary or hourly rates to payroll check calculations. They are a feature of the Human Resources package of ActivityHD and, as such, they are optional. Pay rates are defined on positions and can be applied to employees in the Pay Rate table on the Positions tab of the employee record. Pay rates correspond to the position selected in the Positions table. A pay rate consists of an effective date, unit of pay, and amount per unit of pay. Pay rates are date-driven, so you can enter pay rates in advance and they will not be used in pay check calculations until their effective dates.

To view all position pay rates for employees, highlight the Payroll/Human Resources > Employees > Position Pay Rates folder. Drilling down on a position pay rate in the HD view opens the employee record to the Positions tab with focus on the pay rate you clicked on.

You can delete a position pay rate from an employee record by highlighting its row in the Pay Rate table on the Positions tab and clicking . You can also delete a position pay rate from the Employee Position Pay Rates HD view. If you delete the last employee pay rate assigned to a particular position from the HD view, ActivityHD will also prompt you whether to delete the position from the employee record.

Click Yes to remove the position from the employee. Note that the position record itself is not deleted, only its association with the employee.
