As an administrator, you can create and maintain rate groups. These groups determine the rate calculation used for employees that belong to the group.
Rate groups are relevant for those organizations that have the Cash Management or Travel Request Management modules and are using rates, eg. mileage or daily travel allowances (per diems). By creating various rate groups, you are able to segment and differentiate between different levels of employees and the rates that apply to them. This is useful in instances where there are different reimbursement rates applied to different levels of employees, eg. the per diem rate paid to a general employee is different to that paid to a director.
Rate groups can be managed via the Rate Groups button on the Administration Overview diagram (Employee view).
The diagram you see on the Rate Groups screen illustrates the various rate groups within your organization and the number of employees belonging to each group. The screen is unique to your organization and will be initially developed with the assistance of the Shared Travel Services team.
It is from this screen that you can add, edit or delete rate groups. To assign an employee to a rate group you first need to create the rate group or confirm the appropriate one already exists.
