Step 1

From the description of the problem, the first thing that you want to check is that there is an override rate on the Client (rostering location).

To check this, use the Client Operations screen to verify. [ Nav ] –> Clientelle / Client Operations

Open the Client Operations screen, and on the Rates tab, check for Site specific rates.

The items to note are the Permanent & Casual Classification definition - this is saying that you may have a different entry for Permanent vs Casual staff. The details above indicate that any employee whose Grade Definition in their Classification Code of 1, are to be paid according to the Classification Code :Marquee.

This is the mechanism by which an employee working at this site will be paid the specific rate as defined in this Client Operations screen.

Step 2

For each of your employees, check the Grade definition from their classification codes:

classification code

This is the entry which corresponds to the Grade field in the previous image on the Client operations rates tab.

Explanation

Your first employee's classification has a Grade of 2, hence he is not being paid Marquee rates.

Each of your other employees' classification codes Grade definition are 1, hence there is a link in the Client Operations entry to the grade in the classification and hence they are being paid at the Marquee rate.

Grade 1 on the classification code, matches the grade 1 in the client rates, hence pay the other rate "Marquee".
