How to Apply Payroll Hourly Rates to Employee Timesheets

How to Apply Payroll Hourly Rates to Employee Timesheets

The system now automatically synchronizes the hourly rate configured in Payroll Settings with the Hourly value field in the Employees Timesheet screen.

This enhancement ensures that the hourly rate configured for payroll is automatically applied to employee timesheets, keeping payroll configuration and timesheet records aligned.

How it works

The system retrieves the hourly rate configured in the Hourly field under the Hourly/Weekly Salary Pay option from the applicable payroll configuration:

  • Payroll Settings > Entity Payroll Settings
  • Payroll Settings > Payroll Settings by Region
  • Payroll Settings > Employees Payroll Settings

The configured hourly rate is automatically populated in the employee's timesheet based on the Payroll Entity or Payroll Region assigned to the employee.

Example

Payroll Settings:

ConfigurationValue
Hourly Rate$25.00

Employee Timesheet:

FieldValue
Hourly$25.00

The value configured in Payroll Settings is automatically displayed in the employee's timesheet.

Benefits

With this synchronization:

  • Users no longer need to manually enter the hourly rate in employee timesheets.
  • Payroll configuration and timesheet information remain consistent.
  • Manual updates and potential inconsistencies are reduced.

Info
The Hourly value displayed in the Employees Timesheet is based on the payroll configuration assigned to the employee through the applicable Entity Payroll Settings, Payroll Settings by Region, or Employees Payroll Settings
