Workgroups - Workers and Rates Tab

Of course, the key components of any Workgroup are the employees with which it is associated. To add members to the new Workgroup, use the tab labeled Workers & Rates.

To add a new Workgroup member, click the Add button immediately above the Grid displayed in the Workers & Rates tab.

In the Add New Worker form, the User is first prompted to select a Worker from the Workers/Contacts drop-down list. The User must then define the Worker's 'Hourly Rates'. Once all defined fields have been satisfied, click Save New button at the bottom of the form. The new Worker appears on the Grid displayed in the Workers & Rates tab of the Workgroup data entry form.

Note: All Contacts added as a Worker to a Workgroup are automatically given the 'Worker' contact type, assuming that the Contact does not already have the 'Worker' type.

Users can add as many Workers to a Workgroup as desired.

Once all required fields in the Workgroup data entry form have been satisfied, click the Save New button at the bottom of the form. The new Workgroup appears on the original Workgroups Grid.

Workers and Rates

The 'Workers & Rates' tab will associate a Worker with a Workgroup and define their 'Hourly Rate' for billing purposes. The 'Hourly Rate' here is what the organization will charge for the Worker's labor, not necessarily what the Worker makes. The association will also show up in the Worker Workgroup tab.

1. Click the  

   

    button.

2. This will open the 'Add New Worker Rates' form.
   

   

3. Set the 'Worker' to assign to the Workgroup.

4. Enter values for the 'Hourly Rates'. All three fields, 'Regular', 'Overtime', and 'Double Overtime' are required fields.

5. Click the 

   

    button.

The Worker will now be associated with the defined Workgroup.
