Staff Escalation Subtask

Use this screen to update staff escalation records or change the percent of escalation of staff salaries.

Escalation is based on hire date. A value of zero means that person had not been hired yet, and then would escalate at a given rate annually throughout the project. The escalation date is based on configured values, it could be an anniversary date or particular month.

Note: The employee rate is different for EAC and Budget. A budget starts utilizing an employee’s rate at the first period of the budget, but an EAC adjusts the employee’s rate to the current period of the EAC.
