    Hi RB28,

     

    Thank you for your post.

     

    Regarding your question, you're on the right track by updating the hourly rate on the employee card. However, the best course of action would be to process a single pay run for your apprentice who has turned 4th year mid-pay week. You'll need to manually calculate the pay for the days worked at the previous rate and then calculate the pay for the days worked at the new rate. Add these amounts together to manually adjust the total pay for the pay period. This will not change the hours entered for the payment. It will only adjust the total pay amount. Ensure that you enter a pay slip message indicating that an adjustment has been made due to the pay rate increase mid-week.
