Note: This procedure applies only if you are not using Oracle Services Procurement to provide purchase order information for contingent workers.
If you use Oracle Services Procurement, the Assignment Rates window displays information from the purchase order line for this assignment. You cannot update this information in the Assignment Rates window.
Although you cannot pay contingent workers using Oracle Payroll, you can record their rates in Oracle HRMS. For each contingent worker assignment, you select a predefined combination of rate type and basis and associate it with a currency and monetary value, known as an assignment rate.
Use the Assignment Rates window.
Set your effective date to a date early enough for any historical information you want to enter.
Select the name that identifies the required combination of rate type and basis.
See: Defining a Combination of Assignment Rate Type and Basis
The Rate Type and Rate Basis fields are completed automatically.
Select a currency for the assignment rate.
Enter a monetary value for the assignment rate. For example, if the rate type is Weekend Rate and the basis is Hourly Rate, enter the hourly rate for weekend assignments.
Repeat steps 2 through 4 for additional assignment rates.
Save your work.
If you install and license Oracle Services Procurement at a later date, any rate information recorded in Oracle HRMS is no longer visible.
