Standard Wage Working with Non-Stated Fringes

We are implementing both Standard Wage and Non-Stated Fringes and found an issue where they don't play well together. The issue being, when Standard Wage Code field is blank, Job Cost reflects a charge and no dollars with it.

 

We setup our Wage Code with Pay Type 1 being the Prevailing Wage (Ex: $50). We then set the standard wage to $50. If we charge 10hrs to Job, here is what we see:

1. Charge to Job for 10hrs x Standard Wage of $50 = $500

2. Each Fringe charged to the job (Ex: $15)

Total charges to the job are $515, when they should be $500.

 

If we leave Standard Wage blank in the PW Wage Code, we end up with a blank charge where the $500 should be, and then all the fringe costs.

 

If we disable Standard Wage, everything works great.

 

Ideally we would like the job charged the $50/hr in this scenario and the rest handled in background. We would also accept if standard wage was ignored for certified time and it posted as it would if Standard Wage was disabled.

 

Our current work around is to JC Transaction the dollars back to the job from the variance account after the payroll cycle posts.
