Export File Columns

The columns of information that are included in the export files depending on the type of rates that are exported are described below.

Most of the columns in the export files are included as information only to allow you to identify the rate to which each row in the files corresponds while other columns contain data that is used by FastTrack360 to match the rates in the file to existing rates in the system when an updated file is imported into FastTrack360 to bulk update rates. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not edit the values in any columns except those where it is explicitly stated below that a value can or must be keyed because doing so will either have no effect on updating rates or will result in errors when attempting to import the updated rates.

Columns that can or must have a value entered are prefixed with an asterisks *.

Pay Agreement & Job Order Pay Agreement Rates Export

Column

Description

Column

Description

ExportType

Displays a value of 1 to indicate that the file contains pay agreement rates or 7 to indicate that the file contains job order pay agreement rates.

This is used by the system to determine the type of rates that are being updated when the file is imported into FastTrack360.

This column displays Yes if the corresponding pay rate rule is flagged as Calculation Only, in which case a pay rate description cannot be keyed in the NewRateDescription column.

IsTopUpRate

Identifies if the Top Up Rates option is enabled on the exported pay rate rule, thereby indicating that the pay rate rule tops up the rate specified by another pay rate rule.

This column displays Yes if the exported pay rate rule defines a top up rate, in which case a rate minimum cannot be keyed in the NewRateMinimum field.

RateType

Identifies the pay rate type that applies to the exported rate. This is one of the following:

  • Flat Rate

  • Calculation

  • Direct Valuation

  • Payee Rate

RateMinimum

Identifies the absolute minimum value to which the rate value can be edited on a job order without breaching the minimum rate allowable by the award or industrial instrument to which the corresponding pay agreement corresponds. This column is blank if the Rate Minimum Value field on the corresponding agreement pay rate rule does not contain a value.

RateDescription

Identifies the rate description for the exported rate, if defined.

*NewValidityStartDate

Identifies the date on which the rate update is to become effective.

You must key a date in this column for each row in the file before the file can be imported into FastTrack360 to bulk update rates.

Note that the following conditions apply to the date that you key in this column:

  • it must be defined in the format dd/mm/yyy (e.g. 01/01/2018)

  • it must fall after the current validity start date of the corresponding pay rate rule, as shown in the ValidityStartDate column

  • it must fall after the current validity end date of the corresponding pay rate rule, if defined, as shown in the ValidityEndDate column

  • it must fall after the last timesheet end date for the corresponding pay agreement, as shown in the LastTimesheetEndDate column

  • it must be the same date as the date specified in the NewValidityStartDate column for all other sub-rates in the file that belong to the same pay rate rule.

*NewRate

Identifies the pay rate that will apply for the new validity period. Alternatively, if the exported rate has a rate type of Calculation, this defines the pay value for the new validity period.

This defaults to the current pay rate, unless the corresponding rate type is Direct Valuation or Payee Rate, in which case this column is blank by default.

If this column is defaulted to the current pay rate, you can leave the default value as is, if the rate is to remain unchanged for the new rate validity period, or you can update the rate as necessary (rate value must be a decimal with a maximum of 6 decimal places). However, a value must exist in this column before you can import the file into FastTrack360. An error will occur if you attempt to import the file into FastTrack360 if this column is blank for any row in the file where the rate type is not Direct Valuation or Payee Rate.

If this column is blank by default, which indicates that the pay rate type of the corresponding sub-rate is Direct Valuation or Payee Rate, this column must remain blank.

*NewRateMinimum

Identifies the rate minimum that will apply for the new validity period.

If a sub-rate has a rate minimum value for the exported validity period, this field will default to the existing rate minimum value. However, this can be updated or deleted if necessary (must be a decimal with a maximum of 6 decimal places).

If a sub-rate does not have a rate minimum for the exported period, a rate minimum value can be keyed in this column to apply a rate minimum value for the new validity period except where the IsTopUpRate column is set to Yes, in which case this column must remain blank because a rate minimum cannot be defined for top-up rates.

*NewRateDescription

Identifies the pay rate description that will apply for the new validity period.

If a sub-rate has a pay rate description for the exported validity period, this field will default to the existing pay rate description. However, this can be updated or deleted if necessary.

The new rate description can be a maximum of 60 characters.

This column must remain blank for all rows in the import file that correspond to a Calculation Only pay rate rule (i.e. where the IsCalculationOnly column displays a value of Yes).

If this column is defaulted to the current bill rate, you can leave the default value as is, if the rate is to remain unchanged for the new rate validity period, or you can update the rate as necessary (rate value must be a decimal with a maximum of 6 decimal places). However, a value must exist in this column before you can import the file into FastTrack360. An error will occur if you attempt to import the file into FastTrack360 if this column is blank for any row in the file where the margin/markup type is not Use Other Rate Dollar Margin.

If this column is blank by default, which indicates that the bill rate type of the corresponding sub-rate is Use Other Rate Dollar Margin or Bill Rate Formula this column must remain blank. An error will occur if you attempt to import the file into FastTrack360 if a rate value has been specified for such bill items.

*NewBillRateFormula

Identifies the name of the bill rate formula that is to be used to calculate the bill rate for the new validity period.

If the corresponding margin/markup type is Bill Rate Formula, this column will default to the current bill rate formula name but you can update this to any valid bill rate formula name. However, a value must ex ist in this column before you can import the file into FastTrack360. An error will occur if you attempt to import the file into FastTrack360 if this column is blank for any row in the file where the margin/markup type is Bill Rate Formula.

If the corresponding margin/markup type is not Bill Rate Formula, this column must remain blank.

Standard Rates Export

Column

Description

ExportType

LastTimesheetEndDate

Identifies the end date of the last timesheet that has been processed against the standard rates.

Note that this is accurate as of the time when the export file is created. If more timesheets are processed after the file is exported, the actual last timesheet end date for the corresponding job order could be later than what is shown in this column.

ValidityStartDate

Identifies the date on which the corresponding standard rates set becomes valid.

PayCodeName

Identifies the name of a pay code that is defined within the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order.

PayRate

Identifies the pay rate of the corresponding pay code for the exported validity period. Alternatively, if the corresponding pay code is flagged as Direct Valuation in the standard rates matrix on the corresponding job order, this column is blank.

RateDescription

Identifies the rate description for the corresponding pay code, if defined.

BillCodeName

Identifies the name of a bill code that is defined within the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order.

BillType

Identifies the margin/markup type that applies to the corresponding bill code within the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order. This is one of the following:

  • Flat

  • Margin %

  • Markup %

  • Markup Factor

  • Markup $

  • Bill Rate Formula

BillRateFormulaId

Identifies the FastTrack360 ID that uniquely identifies the bill rate formula that is used to calculate the bill rate, if the bill type is Bill Rate Formula.

Do not edit or delete this column.

BillRateFormulaName

Identifies the name of the bill rate formula that is used to calculate the bill rate, if the bill type is Bill Rate Formula.

BillValue

Identifies the bill value that applies to the corresponding bill code within the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order.

This is blank if the corresponding bill type is Bill Rate Formula.

StandardRatesHeaderId

Identifies the FastTrack360 ID that uniquely identifies the standard rates header to which the exported rates belong.

This is used by the system to determine to which standard rates header the updated rates belong when the file is imported into FastTrack360.

Do not edit or delete this column.

StandardRateId

Identifies the FastTrack360 ID that uniquely matches the pay and bill rates in the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order.
This is used by the system to determine to which combination of pay and bill rates are to be updated on a job order when the file is imported into FastTrack360.
Do not edit or delete this column.

PayBillRateRuleId

Identifies the FastTrack360 ID that uniquely identifies the pay rate component within the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order.

This is used by the system to identify the specific pay rate that is to be updated within the standard rates matrix when the file is imported into FastTrack360.

Do not edit or delete this column.

BillRateRuleId

Identifies the FastTrack360 ID that uniquely identifies the bill rate component within the standard rates matrix for the corresponding job order.

This is used by the system to identify the specific pay rate that is to be updated within the standard rates matrix when the file is imported into FastTrack360.

Do not edit or delete this column.

*NewValidityStartDate

Identifies the date on which the rate update is to become effective.

You must key a date in this column for each row in the file before the file can be imported into FastTrack360 to bulk update rates.

Note that the following conditions apply to the date that you key in this column:

  • it must be defined in the format dd/mm/yyy (e.g. 01/01/2018)

  • it must fall after the current validity start date of the corresponding rate set, as shown in the ValidityStartDate column

  • it must fall after the last timesheet end date for the corresponding job order, as shown in the LastTime sheetEndDate column

  • it must be the same date as the date specified in the NewValidityStartDate column for all rows in the file that belong to the same rate header.

*NewPayRate

Identifies the pay rate that will apply for the new validity period.

This defaults to the pay rate for the exported period, unless the corresponding rate type is Direct Valuation, in which case this column is blank by default.

If this column is defaulted with a pay rate, you can leave the default value as is if the rate is to remain unchanged for the new rate validity period, or you can update the rate as necessary (rate value must be a decimal with a maximum of 6 decimal places). However, a value must exist in this column before you can import the file into FastTrack360. An error will occur if you attempt to import the file into FastTrack360 if this column is blank for any row in the file where the rate type is not Direct Valuation.

If this column is blank by default, which indicates that the pay rate type of the corresponding rate is Direct Valuation, this column must remain blank.

*NewRateDescription

Identifies the pay rate description that will apply to the corresponding pay code for the new validity period.

If a pay item has a pay rate description for the exported validity period, this field will default to the existing pay rate description. However, this can be updated or deleted if necessary.

The new rate description can be a maximum of 60 characters.

*NewBillValue

Identifies the bill rate that will apply for the new validity period.

If the corresponding bill type is anything except Bill Rate Formula, this defaults to the bill rate for the exported period. You can leave the default value as is if the rate is to remain unchanged for the new rate validity period, or you can update the rate as necessary (rate value must be a decimal with a maximum of 6 decimal places). However, a value must exist in this column before you can import the file into FastTrack360.

If the corresponding bill type is Bill Rate Formula, this column must remain blank. An error will occur if you attempt to import the file into FastTrack360 if a rate value has been specified for such bill items.

*NewBillRateFormula

Identifies the name of the bill rate formula that is to be used to calculate the bill rate for the new validity period.

If the corresponding bill type is Bill Rate Formula, this column will default to the current bill rate formula name but you can update this to any valid bill rate formula name.
