Implementing Pay Rate Exceptions

When adjustments to pay rates are required, such as in the absence of a specific individual responsible for payroll, you can use pay rate exceptions. Pay rate exceptions allow you to:

  • Pay employees based on the position they are scheduled to work.

  • Ensure that temporary or role-specific pay adjustments are accurately reflected in payroll. This feature is particularly useful for managing pay adjustments without disrupting the standard payroll setup.
