Rates

Rates let you adjust how earnings are calculated for specific work. Each rate has a Factor that multiplies the base hourly rate and an Extra/h amount that adds a fixed value per hour. Use rates for cases such as overtime, weekend work, or specialized tasks.

A rate only changes earnings on the tasks where you apply it.

Rate list

The rate list shows every rate for the selected team.

• Use the tabs at the top to switch between teams. Each team has its own set of rates.
• Use the Search field to find a rate by title.
• Use the status dropdown (set to Active by default) to filter the list.

Each row in the table shows:

• Title: the name of the rate.
• Factor: the multiplier applied to the base hourly rate, shown as x followed by the value (for example, x 1.50).
• Extra/h: the fixed amount added per hour.
• Enabled: whether the rate is currently available to apply.
• Edit: open the rate to change its details.
• Delete: remove the rate.

Create or edit a rate

1. Click + New Rate in the top right of the rate list. To change an existing rate, click Edit on its row instead.
2. Fill in the form.
3. Click Save.

The form has these fields:

• Team: the team the rate belongs to.
• Title: the name of the rate.
• Factor: the multiplier for the base hourly rate, entered as a number (for example, 1 for no change or 1.5 for a 50 percent increase). The field is marked with x.
• Extra/h: a fixed amount added per hour, marked with the currency symbol. Leave it at 0 for no extra amount.
• Enabled: keep this checked to make the rate available to apply.
• Archived: check this to archive the rate when you no longer need it.

How earnings are calculated

When a rate is applied, earnings for the tracked hours are calculated as:

Hours × (Base rate × Factor) + (Hours × Extra/h)

The base rate is the hourly rate set on the project or task. The factor and extra amount come from the applied rate.

Examples

The table below assumes a base rate of $10 per hour and 10 tracked hours.

Scenario	Hours	Factor	Extra/h	Calculation	Total
Standard	10	1	$0	10 × ($10 × 1) + $0	$100
Higher factor	10	2	$0	10 × ($10 × 2) + $0	$200
Extra per hour	10	1	$2	10 × ($10 × 1) + $20	$120
Both combined	10	2	$2	10 × ($10 × 2) + $20	$220

Note

A rate only affects earnings on the tasks where it is applied.
