Your new pay category is now ready to use for day rates.

Now that you have a pay category set up for day rates, you can setup employees to use day rates by following these steps:

  1. Open the employee file that you want to assign a daily rate and under “Pay Run Settings” click “Pay Run Defaults”
  2. When specifying the employee rate, select the  “per Day” value from the rate drop down and specify the standard number of days per week this employee works:



  3. Click save and this employee will now be setup to use a daily rate

As with all the other pay rate types, employees on day rates can be configured to accrue leave and any other type of pay setting that annual and hourly employees are entitled to.
