A PAY RATE entered here will OVERRIDE, for THIS PAY INPUT RECORD ONLY, the

    Employees Pay Rate from the Employee Master File, or Craft Pay Rate if

    the Rate is blank in the Employee Master File.

 

   There is a Pay Rate LIMIT CHECK to protect against miskeying. Any Pay

    Rate that EXCEEDS $1,000.00 will be disallowed. A Message Box will

    appear when you try to store the record.

 

   By making an entry here you will OVERRIDE ANY OTHER PAY RATE that may

    apply to this employee. THIS RATE APPLIES TO THIS RECORD ONLY! IT DOES

    NOT CHANGE ANY RATE IN ANY FILE.

 

   Example: Fred Smith is a Journeyman Electrician and is paid according

            to union scale, $21.45 per hour for Straight Time. There is

            NO PAY RATE in his Employee Master Record, because his rate

            changes according to the Union Pay Scale. Therefore his Pay

            Rate comes from the CRAFT MASTER RECORD for Journeyman

            Electrician. On some Jobs he gets a HIGHER PREVAILING WAGE

            RATE of $24.50 which is stored in the Prevailing Wage Master

            File.

 

            On this day Fred was doing special work of a higher risk

            nature and was paid a premium wage of $32.00 per hour.

 

            32.00   was entered as PAY RATE OVERRIDE. The other two

                    rates were ignored and this rate was used for these

                    hours only.
