Hello!
I'm working with a customer who is new to T&E and will soon be using SL's Payroll. In setting up their T&E, they discussed using a rate table with average rates of employees for their Project costs (reports, etc. they want to see the average rate, not the employee's rate). The FUPE method will pick up what's in the Rate Table first, and that is what is flowing over to payroll. While this is working great for the reports portion, the average rate that is being picked up is not the employee's true rate that they will be paid when it gets to payroll.
We thought about omitting the rate table on the T&E side and using the employee's true labor rate. This would be great for payroll, however when the customer runs reports they won't be seeing the average rate as they would like. Eventually, they plan to use Flexible Billings and Allocator. I am currently unclear if they will be billing the average rate or the true rate, however I know that if they wished to bill the average it's easy enough to plug in the Rate Table ID and Allocation Method to bill the average cost.
Is there a way in Project T&E where hours could be the employee's true labor cost, but status reports etc are in Standard Cost? The Help files have given wonderful information, but do not appear to address this specific scenario.
Thanks!
