Pay Items Tab

The Pay Items tab displays one row per position with columns for each Pay Type. This page allows for simple updates to the base rates for pay items without exporting.

All Pay Types associated with a Position become Pay Item records. Each Pay Item will be shown on the Pay Item tab as either an amount (specific to that position) or Default (the default rate for that pay type). A pay type not associated with a position should be blank.

Navigating the Pay Items Tab

The Pay Items page allows for filtering via the page dropdowns. You can also click in any column header to sort by that column. Additionally, you can use your arrow keys or tab to move from cell to cell.

Updating Pay Items

1. Click into any cell.
2. Make the appropriate change. 
   • To set the default amount for a pay type, enter 0 (zero).
   • Enter a non-0 value to specify an amount or percent value. Keep in mind the frequency of the original Pay Type as this will determine how the value is calculated.
   • A blank cell indicates the position does not get that pay type.
3. The cell will be highlighted to indicate a change was made. Click in another cell, or tab to the next cell to make additional changes.
   
   
   
   
4. Update any additional cells.
5. Click Save Changes to save your changes and recalculate the changed pay items, or Cancel Changes to remove the changes. A tally of the number of pay items changed is also displayed.
   
   

Pay Item Tab Notes

• The Pay Item tab functions just like the Pay Item import file.
• Changes to the Pay Item tab will override any adjustments made via the Detail tab including any mid-year adjustments.
• If planning on making many changes, be sure to download the Pay Data file prior to starting as a back up in case changes are made by mistake. 
• You cannot make changes to a locked scenario.
