Overtime and Recurring Pay Items

Custom Overtime and Pay Items

Overtimes and Allowances can be created from the Company Settings. If you have not created these yet, check out the steps here: Payroll Settings Guide.

Saving Overtime Rates and Recurring Allowances for Employees

Once you have set these up, you can add them to your employee's agreement.

1. Go to the People page
2. Find and Edit the required employee
3. Click on the Salary Details tab
4. Add any applicable Overtime rates
5. Add any recurring pay items and insert the periodic amount 
6. Update/Save Agreement

In the example below, the employee is set that they are eligible for overtime at a 1.5 rate of their basic pay. Buddy will automatically show you the effective hour.

Whenever you Run Payroll, the pay item and overtime rows will immediately appear. You can edit the pay item amount if necessary, as well as insert the hours worked at that overtime rate.
