Add a Pay Type

Pay types can be payable, non-payable, or extra charges. They are defined as hours or extra charges, such as straight time, overtime, holidays, vacation time, lunch break, or per diem. From the Labor Details screen, pay types are used when adding a pay override for hours in the Hour Entry Form or extra charges in the Expense Entry Form. From the Rates Manager screen, the pay types are displayed in the grid if the pay types are defined as Hour Type.
