Configure Labor Rates for Multiple Employees

The Labor Rates page provides an easy way to manage the pay rates for all employees. You can edit an employee's Hourly Rate, as well as other rates such as Benefit, Holiday, Other, Overhead, Overtime, Shift Differential, and Standby rates. If any custom cost codes have been configured for your site, they appear in the Labor Rates panel instead.

PREREQUISITES: Employees must be added under General > Employees. See Add or Edit an Employee for more information.

1. From the General tab, click Labor Rates.

The Labor Rates panels shows the employees and their various labor rates. You can filter the list by typing the first few letters of the employee's name in the search box in the top-right corner.

2. Click inside a field to edit the rate.
3. Select either the percent sign or dollar sign to specify whether the rate is calculated as a percentage or a fixed amount.

To configure dynamic cost codes for employees, see Configure Dynamic Cost Codes.

You can also configure labor rates for individual employees on the Employees page. See Configure Labor Rates for an Employee for more information.

NOTE: Designer automatically saves the changes you make. A notification that says Data Saved appears in the top-right corner when you make changes to the page.
