Rate

Set the employee's Base Hourly rate where applicable. If your award setup defines employee-level alternate rates, those rates also appear here and can be edited per employee.

INFO

For casual employees, confirm whether the base rate should include the 25% casual loading. If you are unsure, contact Helpdesk before saving changes.

Allowance/deductions

Configure Optional Entitlements and Allowances for this employee. Add or remove recurring allowances and deductions where required.

Employee Journal Mapping

Map the employee's timesheet entries to journal or cost centre codes for your accounting or payroll integration. This sub-tab only applies when your integration supports employee-level journal mapping and is configured during implementation.
