Correcting resource pay

If you made a mistake when entering resource pay on an invoice, for example, you forgot to add resource earnings or used the wrong pay rate, you can correct the pay as long as the resource has not been paid yet for the invoices. Add or change resource pay amounts for individual service items on posted invoices.

You can also add pay for service items not charged to the client, such as parking or mileage. And change the resource to pay for specific service items.

1. Payables > Override Resource Pay
2. In the Search By pane, search for an invoice by entering either:

   • Invoice No.

     The number of the invoice for which you want to adjust resource pay.

   • Job No.

     The invoice’s associated job number.
3. Click . Any invoices that fit your search criteria appear, with the associated witness(es) listed.
4. To add or change the pay for a service item, click the hyperlinked service item.
5. In the View Service window, click Edit.
6. In the Edit Service window, Override is automatically checked. You can change:

   • Pay Rate

     Enter the amount (or percentage) of the pay.

   • Pay Rate Type

     Specify whether you pay by a flat amount ($) or a percentage (%).

   • Minimum Pay

     Enter the minimum pay amount, if applicable.

8. To:
   • Add additional pay, see Adding additional pay amounts.
   • Change the resource paid, see Changing resource to pay.

NOTE: Pay overrides vs. pay adjustments

Use Override Resource Pay when you want to increase or decrease the amount a resource is paid for a billable service item tied to a specific job/invoice. You can also add new service items to invoices, and designate which resources to pay.

Use Pay Adjustments when you want to increase or decrease a resource’s payroll amount for a reason not related to a specific job or invoice, such as a bonus or a repayment of an advance on outstanding invoices. This includes recurring amounts, such as if a resource is paying back an advance in installments.
