If you are not using Oracle Services Procurement to provide purchase order information for contingent workers, the Assignment Rate module enables you to record contingent worker rates. You can change a contingent worker's rate for an existing assignment, or enter a rate for a new assignment. You select the assignment rate name from a list, select the currency, and enter a value. Optionally, you can specify an end date, after which the rate is no longer in effect.

Your implementation team defines one or more assignment rate names in the forms-based interface. An assignment rate name identifies a combination of rate type (such as Standard Rate or Weekend Rate) and rate basis (such as Hourly Rate or Weekly Rate).

If you are using Oracle Services Procurement, the Assignment Rate module displays information from the purchase order line for the assignment. You cannot update this information in the Assignment Rate page.

If you install and license Oracle Services Procurement at a later date, any rate information you recorded using the Assignment Rate module is no longer visible.
