Add an Employee to a Cost/Pay Labor Rate Table
You can add a new employee and the employee's labor rate information to a cost/pay labor rate table.
To add an employee to a cost/pay labor rate table:
- In the Navigation pane, select Settings > Rate Tables > Cost/Pay Labor Rates.
- At the top of the Cost/Pay Labor Rate Tables form, enter either a complete or partial name or number in the Find cost/pay labor rate table lookup field to find and select an existing cost/pay labor rate table for which you want to add new employees and labor rate information.
- In the Employees grid, click +Add Cost/Pay Labor Rate to display the New Employee Search dialog box.
- In New Employee Search dialog box, use the basic or advanced search functions to locate employees that you want to add to the existing billing rate table.
-
In the Search Results grid, select the checkbox next to each employee record that you want to add, or use one of these other actions to select employees in the results list:
- To add a range of values in non-contiguous order, press the CTRL key and select the checkbox for each value.
- To add a range of values in contiguous order, press the SHIFT key and select the checkboxes for the starting value and ending value in the range of values.
- To add all values, press SHIFT, select the checkbox for the first value in the drop-down list, and then scroll down and select the checkbox for the last value in the list.

Click
Apply All or
Apply Selected to save your selection.
Vantagepoint closes the New Employee Search dialog box, applies a default rate of 1 to newly added employees, and then displays the Effective Dates dialog box on the Employees grid in the Rate Tables form.
-
Optional: On the Effective Dates dialog box, if you use effective dates for billing rates, select a date and click
Save.
This date will apply for each row that you insert on the grid.
-
Optional: If you want to enter a new Cost/Pay labor rate to bill for the rendered work of the employee, click the
Rate field and change the rate.
On the Rate Tables form, Vantagepoint notifies you if the new row has been added successfully to the Employees grid. Otherwise, an error message with details appears in red on top of the Employees grid.
