Pulse - PAYROLL - How to enter a new pay rate

1. First step is calculating what the base rate will be.
For example,…. If the salary is to be $50,000 per year.
Then to calculate it is $50,000/52 (weeks per year) = $961.53 per week
$961.53/38 (hours per week) = $25.3034 per hour
2. If you are using the Registered and Licensed Club Award 2010 – consult your base rate from there e.g. Level 3, Level 4. Making sure you get the base rate (not the casual or Part Time rate)
3. To enter the new rate go to SET UP, MAINTAIN AGREEMENTS. Double click on the Agreement you wish to add a new pay rate for.
Go to RATES OF PAY. At the bottom of the grid, add your new rate of pay.
4. The final step is to enter the new pay rate on the employee’s file.
Go to PAYROLL and MAINTAIN EMPLOYEES
Select the employee. Go to Employment History TAB. Click the plus (+) sign at the bottom of the screen.
Select the relevant award and add the new pay rate that you wish to apply. Click OK to save.
