Seniority-based pay
Use worker seniority fields and payment rules to adjust pay rates without hard-coded software changes.
Operational question
How can seniority change pay without hard-coded software work?
Before Teambridge
Pay rules depend on worker tenure, but the system needs a structured way to read seniority and apply the right rate.
After setup
Seniority fields, automations, shift-linked values, and payment rules update pay rates based on configured conditions.
Setup you should understand
- Seniority date and level fields on Users
- A seniority rate field on Shifts
- Automations that update seniority levels
- Payment rules that adjust default rates
What to watch for
- User seniority and shift pay need to stay linked
- Automations keep seniority current
- Payment rules should show where the rate came from
- Test with multiple worker levels
Video takeaways
The main ideas to retain after watching
- Create seniority field
- Populate worker values
- Configure payment rules
- Test pay outcomes
