Use the Salary/Wages Pay Component type to create either 'Base Salary' (for Salary Type employees) or 'Normal Time' (for Wages type employees). The table below explains the differences and recommended settings for each field depending on whether the employee is paid Salary or Wages.
Note: The Current Tick box function is specific to the Salary/Wages pay component type record. You cannot have more than 1 Current Salary/Wages Employee Pay Component (EPC) setup.
When you are creating a Salary/Wages EPC and there is already a current EPC set up, as long as the Sub Type Code is the same, the system will automatically populate an End Date on the old EPC record based on the date prior to the Start Date on your new EPC and also untick the Current box on the old EPC.
