Just put a new empolyee on as permanetand dosent have saturday or sunday rates when i go to approve her timesheets.

Hello there, Khal.

I'd be happy to ensure that Saturday and Sunday pay rates are accurately applied to your new permanent employee's timesheets.

Before we proceed, could you please confirm whether this employee has a pay template that includes weekend rates? Also, are the weekend rates for your other employees working correctly? Any additional information will be appreciated.

If the timesheets for the new employee are still pending for approval, you'll have to manually adjust the hours to include the Saturday and Sunday rates before processing payroll. Once updated, these adjustments will automatically be reflected in the payroll run.

However, if the timesheets have already been approved, you can set up a Pay Category to define weekend rates and apply them during your payroll.

Here's how:

1. Go to the Payroll Settings tab,
2. Under Pay Run Settings, select Pay Categories and then click Add on the right side of the screen.
3. Select whether it is fixed or not by ticking the box beside the name of your new Pay Category.
4. Fill out the relevant fields. Once done, click Save.

You can refer to this page for more detailed information: Create and manage Pay Categories.

Once the Pay Category is created, you'll have to assign it to the employee by following these steps:

1. Open the Employees dashboard and select the name of the employee's record.
2. Under Employment Details, choose the Pay Category you've just created from the Primary Pay Category dropdown.
3. Click Save.

From there, your Saturday and Sunday rates will automatically apply to the employee's base rate and will be reflected in future payroll runs.
