Staff Pay Codes

  1. You may choose to use an N/A paycode that would not calculate the hours as payable time. If this option is chosen, you will need to include nonpayable appointments in your Payroll report when running it.

2. If you choose to use a ‘travel’ or other paycode that is not an “N/A”, then you will need to note that the number of hours on the appointment would count toward overtime calculations, if these are turned on in your account.

Mark the Travel pay code as ‘default’ for Travel appointments

Train staff/schedulers to ensure that a Travel Paycode is on Travel appointment and that number of miles are entered on each Travel Appointment.

 

Miles will auto-calculate if a from and to address is entered on Travel appointments.

 

Start and End time are required on all appointments, but will not generate a rate, due to be $0 per hour. The rate per mile set on Company Account will pull to the Payroll Report and calculate based on number of miles driven.

 

The Time Sheet Entries tab of the payroll report should be reviewed to ensure that all Travel appointments were appropriately logged with the correct pay code.
