Recalculating time

You must recalculate time if you:

  • Change an employee's pay rate, Ajera applies the new rate to time entered with a date on or after the start date of the new pay rate. New pay rates do not affect billed time or paid time, regardless of the effective date.
  • Change time an employee entered but was not yet paid for
  • Change time that is not yet billed to the client
  • Move time either from a project that uses wage rate tables to a project without wage rate tables or vice versa (before running payroll)

Note:

Your security settings must allow you access to Recalculate Time. You can change the settings on the > Setup > Company > Roles> Company tab.
