Accurately record the hours worked each day by your employees.
Show the hours worked each day on employee payslips.
Produce accurate reports of your wage cost on a daily basis.
You can add more pay rates by clicking the + Add button.
To define pay rates as days of the week
To pay staff using the 'define pay rates' method
- From the front screen click Calculate Pays, then select an employee.
- Click the white cell under Rate on the Monday line, and enter the hourly rate this employee earns.
The rest of the days are set to the same pay rate as Monday, so the rate you enter autofills their cells. The Rate settings are saved for you and become the default setting for this employee each pay period.
