If you have just reactivated an employee who was terminated, you may need to review and update the employee's job rates. Job rates are used to define specific pay rates for work that is charged to a specific job and/or department.

Note: After you reactivate an employee, the menu items on the left side of the Terminated Employee page become active and you can use them to edit or update the reactivated employee's data. However, when you leave the Terminated Employee page and go to another part of the application, you cannot come back to the page to continue editing the reactivated employee's information. Instead, you must edit the data in the Employee Editor.

To update an employee's job rates from the Terminated Employee page:

  1. On the Terminated Employee page, click the Jobs menu item on the left side of the page.

  2. If job rates have already been created for the employee, you can edit the existing job rates:

  3. If no blank row exists and you want to create a new job rate for the employee, click the Add additional Job Rates link. A new row is added under the Job Rates section.

  4. To create a new job rate, click the Select Date button in the Effective Date column of a blank row, and then select the date on which you want the job rate to become active.

  5. In the Department column, click the Select button, and then select the department for which you want the rate to be paid.

  6. In the Job column, click the Select button, and then select the job for which you want the rate to be paid.

  7. In the Rate Amount column, enter the hourly rate the employee is to be paid for the Department/Job combination you have specified.

  8. Click the Submit button.

Notes:
The Department and Job columns may have different names depending on the labor charge fields that have been set up for your company.

Only one job rate can be in effect at a time for each Department/Job combination, but you can schedule changes in the job rate by creating additional rates for the same combination but with different effective dates. The job rate in effect for a particular Department/Job combination is always the rate with the latest effective date that has already passed. The effective job rate expires when the effective date of the next scheduled job rate for the same combination is reached.
