Step 1: Open the Supplements option on the Projects/Planner page

  • On the planner page, right-click the staff member's assignment and select 'Change Supplement'. This will open a Supplement management window

  • This can also be done on the projects page, via the bottom section where assigned staff are listed on selected shifts - click the (+) button under the Supplement column next to the listed staff member.

Step 2: Input the Supplement details

  • Select a Supplement Type; these are configured by admin users to designate the kinds of supplements that can be paid to staff e.g. backpay, travel, bonus etc.

  • Input the amount that is to be paid for the supplement.

  • Input the quantity: Some supplements might need to have a quantity recorded e.g. miles for mileage supplements.

  • Add any additional comments to describe the reasons for paying this supplement

  • Select an eligible manager that has signed-off on paying this supplement. This can be referred to later in any payroll reports.

  • (Optional) Set 'Pay With Shift' preference. By default all supplements will be included with advanced payroll reports along with the shift that was worked. However if this option is deselected, users may set another pay date should they require the supplement to be paid in another pay run.

Step 3: Click Add

  • Once saved, the supplement will be saved against the staff member's assignment and will appear on the list to the right of the window.

  • Companies may add multiple supplements against each assignment. The total value of all supplements owed will be calculated at the bottom of the window.

  • Should you wish to remove a supplement, select the supplement from the list and select 'Delete'.
