Part of your budgeting might include the need to adjust your system-generated hours for one or many jobs. Hours adjustments are typically used to reduce hours for reasons such as vacation, holiday, or attrition. However, there are times when you might want to add hours because there is a certain level of uncertainty in the accuracy of the long term forecast. You use rate adjustments to make adjustments to the rate of pay that is being applied during a day or date range. The most common reasons for these adjustments are to apply a departmental pay raise or to account for days when additional premiums might apply due to special circumstances.

The Adjust Hours and Rates screen displays hours and rates for jobs in your property. On this screen, you can do the following:

From the drop-down list, under the Financial section, select Budgeting.
The Budgeting screen appears in a separate tab.

In the Adjust Hours and Rates row, click Update/Start.
