What if an employee’s pay varies from week to week?

Even if an employee’s pay varies from week to week (maybe they often work overtime), you can still set up their defaults in the Standard Pay section of their card, specifying things that do stay constant, such as additional superannuation contributions or regular allowances. With this complete, all you have to do is zoom in on the employee’s pay from the Select & Edit Employee’s Pay window and make any necessary changes (Chapter 3 talks lots more about the actual process of recording employee pays.)

For casuals whose hours vary every week, change the number of hours in the Hours column of their standard pay to zero hours. This ensures that you’ll be prompted to record their actual number of hours worked every time you go to process payroll.
