Session Fees

Session fees are a flat rate that can be added to a shift either to enhance the hourly rate or to replace it.

If you want the session fee to replace the hourly rate then you need to create a zero rated pay rate group and attach this to the shift and then enter the session fee. You can find out more about setting up pay rate groups here

Shift Pattern Manager

To add a session fee to a shift in shift pattern manager, edit the shift and enter the desired amount into the session fee box:

You will still need to enter a pay rate group as this field is mandatory. If you want the shift to be valued only using the session fee then set up a pay rate group that has £0 for every hour.

The session fee will now be included in the shifts value and will be added to live shifts when the template is rolled out.

View Rota

You can add a session fee on to the shift in View Rota if you want to add an adhoc flat fee. To add a session fee, edit the shift and enter the value in the session fee. The session fee will then be added to the value of the shift

When someone is removed from a shift, the system will ask if you would like to put the shift back to it's default rate. If you answer yes to this question, then the session fee will be reset to what it was on shift pattern manager

Rota Reprice

When shifts are repriced using the rota reprice the session fee will be reset to what it was in shift pattern manager.

Staff Hub

If the setting that allows employees to view values on the staff hub is on then they will see the total value of the shift (including the session fee) and the session fee itself
