FAQ: When would I need to use the Additional Dollars field or the Additional Percent field in the Wages screen of the Employee File?

When would I need to use the Additional Dollars field or the Additional Percent field in the Wages screen of the Employee File?

These fields should be used with Negotiations when the employee is to get an additional dollar amount or an additional percentage on top of the total wages for the pay code. For example, ten years ago it was negotiated that every teacher working at the district will receive $200 above their salary amount and will receive that amount as long as they teach at the district. The teachers that have worked at the district for 10 or more years today still get the $200 addition to their check. The easiest way to pay them the extra $200 is to enter it in the Additional Dollars field.
