We need the Salary to feed through to create an Hourly Rate using the employees standard working hours so it can be used for Overtime and related other rates such as shift allowance, if a pay increase happens we also have to update the Overtime rates – this does not happen automatically?
Describe the Challenge | Meaning the use of spreadsheets to do our own calculations and records which is open to risk and error and very time consuming? |
Hey Alison
Long time no speak, I hope you are well 🙂
Thank you for these suggestions, as there are a few suggestion in one idea here, I'm going to split them out for you.
I'll leave this request to cover your item below:

As for your other two points below, I've raised an additional Idea, if you search for 'PAYCIRCLE-I-57' you will be able to see this new request. Please head over and vote for this item and add any additional information you feel would help.
We can’t seem to report on Hourly Rates at all such as for National Minimum Wage checks and other purposes.
Hourly Rate cannot be viewed on the employee’s screen easily, we have to drill down to Pay Information area then click on the Current Salary area to “view more” the value appears there but cannot be reported on?
For your last point (below), this functionality already exists within Paycircle. Here is a link to the support article. Should you require any firther inforation here, please reach out to our support chat where the team will be happy to help.
Unable to upload just hours for Overtime we have to add the rate too, but how can we do this if we can’t report on the hourly rate? Therefore we have to keep our own record locally.
Hi Alison, I thought the overtime rates were held against the employee doing this calculation. You can then use the import called Hourly units and it will pick up the rates held against the individual. I'm not 100% sure about this as we don't use it because we pay overtime a month behind
