How to Update Pay Agreements

In the Update Agreement Rates screen of the Back Pay Batch Wizard, pay agreements can be updated individually or in bulk. To use the Update Agreement Rates screen to update an individual pay agreement, follow the procedure below.

How to Update an Individual Pay Agreement
1.	In the list of pay agreements in the bottom part of the Update Agreement Rates screen, click on the pay agreement you want to update. The pay agreement expands to show the pay rate rules for the pay agreement which you selected.
2.	Beneath the relevant pay rate rule, key in a new pay rate in the New Pay Rate field, as shown in the example below. Note that if conditional variables apply to the pay agreement, there may be multiple existing rates for each pay rate rule. If this is the case, key in a new pay rate in the New Pay Rate field for each conditional variable value if necessary, as shown in the example below.
3.	Repeat step 2 until you have updated the pay rate for each pay rate rule you want to update.
4.	Repeat steps 1-3 if you want to update any other pay agreements.
