Link Pay Types For Paystub Consolidation Subtask

You can list "child" pay types in this subtask and link them to the "parent" pay type from the main Manage Pay Types screen. The pay types listed in this subtask will be consolidated under the pay type on the main screen when Costpoint reports hourly rates on the paycheck or payment advice paystub.

A pay type cannot be linked as a child pay type to more than one parent pay type. Also, a parent pay type cannot be specified as a child pay type to another pay type.

If a paycheck has a SUTA State that uses the Include Hourly Rates For Non-Exempt Employees setting on the Manage State Taxes screen, Costpoint will print hourly rates on the paystub. This is in accordance with some U.S. state laws (for example, California). In some cases, you may want to consolidate the hourly rates and hours from multiple pay types and present it as one hourly rate on the paystub. This subtask allows you to link "child" pay types to the "parent" pay type from the main screen. When paychecks or payment advices are printed, the child pay types will be rolled into the parent pay type so that the hourly rate information is presented as one line in the paystub.
