Use the form to specify effective dates for your employees' cost/pay rates.
Header Information
Field | Description |
Table Number
|
Enter a numeric code for the table.
|
Table Name
|
Enter a descriptive name to identify the table.
For easier identification in lookup lists:
- Use as general a name as possible. For example, if you define a labor rate table because the project is located in Philadelphia, consider naming the table "Philadelphia" rather than naming it after the project or client.
- If you maintain both a cost and a pay rate table for the same projects or scenarios, consider including "cost" or "pay" in each table's table name.
|
Currency
|
If you use the Multicurrency feature, select the currency in which the table's rates are displayed. This is typically the currency in which employees are paid at the location for which the table is used. The currency must match the functional currency of the employee's owning organization for the table to be available for the employee in the Employee Info Center.
|
Rate Type
|
Select
Cost Rate,
Pay Rate, or
Both from the drop-down list.

Search lookup list.
