Creating and managing employment agreements

Learn how to create, edit, and manage employment agreements in Reckon One.

About employment agreements

An employment agreement serves as the foundation for creating a pay template. It contains the classifications which the pay template uses to assign the corresponding rates.

An employment agreement is stored in the employee’s employment profile. It can be used to assign a template to the employee’s pay setup tab, ensuring the correct pay rates are automatically applied. Alternatively, it can simply be referenced to identify the employee’s applicable award or agreement.

This feature is available on Reckon Payroll Plus and Premium plans.
