VERY BRIEFLY:

Acumatica Payroll allows for calculation of all of the Averaged Daily/Weekly pay methods:
- Average Daily Pay (ADP),
- Relevant Daily Pay (RDP) and
- Average Weekly Earnings (AWE).
These are also compared to the Ordinary Weekly Pays:
- Ordinary Weekly Pay Standard 8(1)
(aka Rate Method 'OWP 8.1')
- Ordinary Weekly Pay 4 Week Av. ($)
(aka Rate Method 'OWP 8.2')
- Ordinary Weekly Pay Agreed Rate ($)
(aka Rate Method 'OWP 8.3')
These also interact with the Definition of Week settings.
There's some fairly extensive discussion in the online help related to this in various places;

Because Acumatica Payroll is configurable for a range of businesses, you can set employees to use the rates appropriate for them at your business.
If you need help deciding which of the various calculations are appropriate for your business, please refer to Employment New Zealand (The part of MBIE that used to be the Department of Labour),
Or contact your payroll advisor/implementing consultant for further advice.
