Pro rata temporis

The Pro Rata Calculation option field contains 4 selection fields:

❑ blank (empty)

❑ 1/4

❑ 1/2

❑ 1

The Pro Rata Calculation field is used when you only want to pay individual amounts entered in the Allocated Salary table once a quarter, twice a year or once a year.

Example:

The employee receives a flat rate amount of CHF 4'000 annually. This amount should not be paid one time or monthly, but once a quarter. Assign option 1/4 to the corresponding expense salary type.

When CHF 1'000 is entered for the flatrate salary type in the Allocated Salary table, the suggestion of 1/4 appears in the Pro Rata Calculation field. This suggestion can be deleted for each employee or another option can be used. For the system to know when to begin making this payment every quarter, enter the corresponding value in the PRC Next Start Date field, e.g. 01.04.2010. This means that CHF 1'000 will be billed automatically in April 2010. The next payment will be made again on July 1, 2010, then on October 1, 2010, etc.
