Enable Adhoc Rates for CIS workers and understand their implications

Learn what to do to enable Adhoc Rates for CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) workers and understand their implications.

Written by Terence Cassidy

Introduction

Adhoc Rates in Access Pay & Bill can be configured to be visible for CIS workers by enabling the CIS Eligible setting. This article explains the steps to enable this setting and clarifies its implications.


Overview of Adhoc Rates and CIS Eligibility

Adhoc Rates are additional expenses or rates that can be applied to workers' timesheets. For CIS workers, these rates need to be explicitly marked as CIS Eligible to make them selectable during timesheet entry. This setting ensures visibility without applying a CIS deduction to the expense.


Steps to Enable CIS Eligibility for Ad hoc Rates

To make an Adhoc Rate visible for CIS workers, follow these steps:

  1. Click Set Up and then click Global Rate Maintenance in the Access Pay & Bill application.

  2. Locate and open the specific Adhoc Rate you want to configure (e.g., Mileage).

  3. Enable the checkbox labeled CIS Eligible.

  4. Save your changes.

Once the CIS Eligible option is enabled, the Adhoc Rate will become available for selection when creating timesheets for CIS workers.


Implications of Enabling CIS Eligibility

Enabling the "CIS Eligible" setting for an Ad hoc rate has the following implications:

  • The rate becomes visible and selectable for CIS workers during timesheet entry.

  • No CIS contribution or deduction is applied to the expense, ensuring that the rate is purely for visibility purposes.

This configuration allows organizations to manage Adhoc Rates effectively without impacting CIS calculations.


❓FAQs for Common Scenarios

Q: Will enabling "CIS Eligible" automatically apply a CIS deduction to the Adhoc rate?

A: No, enabling "CIS Eligible" only makes the rate visible for CIS workers. It does not apply any CIS contribution or deduction to the expense.

Q: Can I enable CIS eligibility for multiple Adhoc rates at once?

A: Currently, the "CIS Eligible" setting must be enabled individually for each Adhoc rate in the Global Rate Maintenance section.

By following these steps and understanding the implications, you can effectively manage Adhoc Rates for CIS workers in Access Pay & Bill.
