Using Advanced Rostering, you can record the hours your operators work and their hourly rates, which in turn generates for you the Wages Report.
If you haven't already setup your Advanced Rostering via the Advanced Rostering (Part 1)—roster types & operator hours article, click here to do so first.
Then you will be ready to setup your Roster to record your staff hours and their individual hourly rates earned per shift. Your Wages Report will be automatically generated based on the hours and rates in your Roster.
If you don't need to track wages, then use the Simple Rostering—click here to see how to set it up in a few very simple steps.
Setting up your Roster Rate Types in Advanced Rostering
Go to Admin, choose Rostering, and click New in the Roster Rates Type section.
You will already have your Standard Rate there, so click New to create another roster rate type. On the right side panel give it a name, and Save.
Keep adding in all of your Roster Rate Types until you've covered all of the different rates you have available to your staff.
Assigning the Roster Rate Types to your staff operators
Go to Admin, then into your Operators tab, and click the Roster Rates link next to one of your operators.
Edit the Standard Rate.
On the right side panel enter in this operators individual Standard Rate, and Save.
If this operator also has the ability to earn a different rate (i.e. Public Holiday rate or Double Time rate etc) click the New Roster Rate link to add another one for this operator.
On the right side panel, enter in the operator's hourly rate for the roster rate type, and Save.
Keep adding in New Roster Rates until this operator has been assigned all of their possible hourly rates.
Do this for all of your operators.
