Summary

The Calculate Annualised Salaries command allows supervisor users to do a bulk recalculate of all, or a subset, of employees' Annualised Salary field or default Rate Amount field.

You should run this command using the Annualised Salary option, if:

• Multiple employees default rates have been changed in the system via one of the following methods:

• Profiled hours have been changed for multiple employees.
• Multiple employees have changed to new awards.
• Multiple employees have changed pay frequency (eg: have changed from fortnightly to monthly).
• The Annualised Salary Default Hours field in Modify Company Settings is adjusted.

You should run this command using the Default Rates option, if:

• You notice, that despite an employee having a Default Rate code, and a non-zero rate is present in the rate hierarchy that the employee's default rate amount is zero.
