    I am looking for a suggestion....   I have associates that have two components of their salary.   (Base salary and a commission draw.)

    I am trying to find a way to track these two pay components separately but I am not seeing a clear way to do this.   If I put it on the ALT RATES screen it does not default the additional pay for the associate.

    Lets say the associate makes $20,000 as a base salary and $15,000 as a draw against commissions.   I want to put the 20,000 in the salary rate field on HR11 (Pay Rate) and then have the 15,000 somewhere else that will default it into each payroll.  

    (Of course I want it to make sense and not be difficult to report on when needed....   I liked HR 11 because I give the right people access to that screen - If I put it on a PR screen it might be strange for non PR associates???)

    Anyone have a suggestion?

      The only way I know to track that based on your scenario is to use the HR11 and then PR30 to default the draw money each pay period. Assuming your pay codes have different pay summary groups, you can easily report on the different amounts if needed. As for not being familiar to "non PR associates" - if they understand draws, it's not confusing, IMO. Good luck!
