To convert to non-traditional rate in Sage BusinessWorks you will need these figures/variables: - Rate=The rate to be earned
- Hours worked=Amount of hours to be worked to earn the rate
- Regular full time hours in a year=(Hours in a work week located in PR, Utilities, Maintain Payroll Parameters) x (Number of weeks in a year i.e. 40 hours x 52 weeks = 2080)
The Formulas are: - (Rate) / (Hours worked) = hourly rate
- (Hourly rate) x (Regular full time hours in a year) = Rate employee earns per year
Examples: In this example the number of hours in a work week (found in Payroll Parameters) is 40, therefore Regular full time hours in a year is 2080 (40 hours x 52 weeks). Example 1: Employee will earn 1 hour (vacation or sick) for every 30 hours worked - Rate = 1 hour
- Hours worked = 30
- Hourly rate - 1/30=.033333
- Rate employee earns per year - .03333 x 2080 = 69.333
- Enter Rate of 69.333 in PR, Employees, Maintain Employees, Vacation...
Example 2: Employee will earn 8 hours (vacation or sick) for every 160 hours worked - Rate = 8 hours
- Hours worked = 160
- Hourly rate - 8/160=.05
- Rate employee earns per year - .05 x 2080 = 104
- Enter Rate of 104 in PR, Employees, Maintain Employees, Vacation…
