I have a new school based apprentice (SBA) starting, which includes a weekly 25% training payment based on total hours worked. Is there any way I can set this up as a wage category? Im thinking something similar to superannuation where the % is automatically calcualated based on total wages, but paid to the SBA per week.
Thank you.
Hi HB_TI
You wouldn't be able to set it up based on the total hours worked. This is due to the fact that wage categories would be based on a set amount per pay (like salary) or the employee's pay rate, not the hours worked of other categories.
In saying that, it doesn't mean that you won't be able to create it. There is a likely way that you can do it, it would need to be a matter of narrowing that down - probably would not be an automated process and involve entering an amount or hours into the Process Payroll window each pay period. However, if you can give us some more information on how that payment will work and an example with values that would be ideal. This way we can look at how best to set it up.
Thanks for your reply Steven. I thought as much. Im ok to enter in manually each pay period, however it would have been lovely to set it up as an automated option.
