What is the Main Schedule?
The Main Schedule decides which schedule a salary employee's costs will be assigned to. For this reason, it is important to assign your salary employee's a Main Schedule now. This is the first part of ongoing updates to improve salary costings on Bizimply.
Please note: If you do not assign a Main Schedule to your employees who are paid salary, their labour costs will not be applied to the schedule after the first salary update.
How to assign employees a Main Schedule
What you need to do is assign a Main Schedule to your salary employees - this will decide which schedule that employee's costs will be applied to. There are two ways you can do this - either within the Work tab of employee's profiles OR you can do this in bulk using the Update Employee Profiles feature in Settings.
How to Assign Main Schedule within Work tab of Employee Profile

Click into 'Employees' tab from navigation bar
Select relevant employee to click into their profile
Click into the 'Work' tab
Scroll down to the 'Main Schedule' field
Select relevant schedule from the drop down that appears. (Note that if the relevant schedule does not appear in the drop down, you must assign the employee to that schedule first using help article).

What happens when you assign employees a Main Schedule
Currently this does not affect the costing of Salary employees. However with the upcoming salary employee costing update the main schedule field will allocate the costing to the main schedule for your salary employees.
Please note: If you have not assigned a Main Schedule to your salary employees before we release the salary update then your salary employees cost will be removed from the schedule.
