Each employee's salary, earnings, benefits, employer-paid tax, and allocation information is used in calculations, ensuring that employee expenses are calculated and distributed correctly. When a position is shared across departments, only one department owns the position and can modify position expenses. Define position or employee allocations to allocate compensation expenses to the owning department.
If an employee has two jobs, each in a different department, each department accounts for their portion of employee expenses. For example, if an Administrative Assistant has an FTE of 1 and works in two departments, each department pays 50% of the expense, and the FTE is calculated as follows:
Each department accounts for its portion of the employee FTE (0.5 per department in this case)
The Administrative Assistant's two job records are grouped under the employee. The job records are accessible only by the primary department.
You can also allocate a general expenses (hardware, furniture, and floor space, for example) across departments.
