Define Additional Earnings

Previous Next

 

 

 

 

Additional earnings provide a flexible way of defining a user definable pay type or gratuity.

 

Additional Earnings May be Defined as


a fixed amount

a fixed amount set per employee

an amount to be determined at each pay cycle

or a rate multiplier base on an employee's hourly rate

 

Once defined, additional earnings may be assigned to the employee record or assigned during payroll processing (depending on the type of additional earning). This allows for both re-occurring pay at each payroll cycle or the occasional assignment of additional pay as the need arises.
