Add or Edit a Rate Card

Overview

Rate Cards are used to store all pay and charge rates as well as the oncost percentages for pay items other than the employee’s base rate.

They can be used across groups of employees using the same pay, charge and oncost rates or set separately for individual employees.

In the Pay Rules that you create, you can specify the pay and charge rates that need to be applied. 

Rate Cards are managed in Config > Payroll > Rate Cards.

If you need this enabled in your portal, please contact our Support Team.

Add a Rate Card

To add a Rate Card:

1. Go to Config > Payroll > Rate Cards > Add New Rate Card.

2. Set the region for the Rate Card. (You won’t be prompted to do this if only one region is enabled in your portal.)

3. Enter a Name for the Rate Card.

4. Set any tags that apply to the Rate Card

5. If your portal has multiple currencies enabled, select the Charge Rate currency.

6. Click Save.

Add Rates to a Rate Card

Once the Rate Card is saved, you can add rates to the Rate Card.

1. Click Add New Rate.

2. Enter the Rate name.

   • We recommend copying and pasting directly from your list of Pay Items as it is crucial all of your rate names are referenced in the same way on rate cards.

   • Once a rate has been added you can not edit the name

3. Enter the Pay Rate.

4. Enter the Oncost percentage.

5. Enter the Charge Rate.

6. Click Save New Rate.

Ensure that the Rate name you enter is correct before you save it. Once a Rate Card is saved, the name can’t be edited and the line can’t be removed from the Rate Card.

You’ll need to click Add New Rate for each additional rate that you need to set.

If you’d like to include attachments, you can add them in the Attach Files section at the bottom of the screen.

Edit a Rate Card

You can edit some fields once a Rate Card has been created. To do this:

1. Go to Config > Payroll > Rate Cards > select the Rate Card.

2. Click Add Rate Change for the rate that needs updating.

3. Edit the settings as required.
