Oncosts
The Oncosts settings allow you to determine if pay oncosts or bill oncosts will be used for reporting on profit margins for specific countries.
Pay oncosts are costs incurred by an agency as a result of paying payees and that cannot be passed onto clients. For example, in Nordic countries payees may be eligible for guaranteed salary, whereby payees receive a certain minimum amount of pay while employed by an agency regardless of whether they are placed in a job. When a payee is not placed in a job, there is no client to whom costs associated with employing the payee can be passed. Therefore, an agency may factor in a pay oncost when determining their margins to ensure that they recoup money paid to a payee during periods when the payee is not placed in a job.
Bill oncosts are costs incurred by an agency as a result of paying payees that are passed onto clients. Agencies in countries where payees are not paid while not placed in a job generally use bill oncosts for calculating margins.
By default, the system will use bill oncosts when calculating margins for reporting purposes unless all of the following conditions apply:
the pay oncosts function is enabled for the reporting country
pay oncosts are specified as the oncost type that are to be used for the reporting country.
It is possible to enable the pay oncosts function for a given country and use bill oncosts for margin calculations for that country. Where the pay oncosts function is enabled for a county, it is possible to create pay oncosts for that country and therefore it is possible to therefore report on pay oncosts if necessary.
Bill oncosts are always used when calculating bill amounts that are invoiced to debtors regardless of whether pay or bill oncosts are used for reporting on margins.

Reimbursements
Reimbursements are monetary compensations made to a payee when the payee incurs an out of pocket expense related to their work as a payee. The Reimbursement settings provide the ability to enable reimbursement-related functionality within the system on a per-country basis. Where reimbursement functionality is enabled for a country, the following applies:
users are able to enter and track reimbursements within the system
a pay code type of Reimbursement is available and can be applied to pay codes that are configured in Portal > Rates and Rules > Maintenance > Pay Code
fields labelled Net, GST (or equivalent) and Total are displayed in the following areas of the system:
on the Additional tab of the Timesheet Entry screen in the Portal > Time and Attendance module
within the Portal > Interpreter Results > Interpreter Review module
on the Payee Pay Details screen at the Manual Items stage of the pay batch process.
Once reimbursement functionality is enabled for a country within the system it cannot be turned off at a later date.
