                     change is made to a time record for this
                     pay code's bill rate.  The recalculation
                     would affect other time records for the
                     same employee and the same Assignment
                     number for the same week ending. . Valid
                     values are:

                     N = No (the default)

ABP-BASE-RATE-FL     Alpha 1
Base Rate Fl         Indicates whether this is the base rate
                     (also can be referred to as the standard
                     or regular rate).  This identifies the
                     pay code for the rate that determines
                     other rates when using factors.

                     For example, assuming the following pay
                     codes: REG (regular), OVT (Overtime) and
                     DBT (Double Time).
                     - REG is the base rate.
                     - OVT is calculated as 1.5 times the
                     REG rate (factor of 1.5).
                     - DBT is calculated as 2.0 times the
                     REG rate (factor of 2).
                     Depending on how you define the pay
                     codes within the Payroll application,
                     the factor is also set up there as the
                     premium percentage.

                     Valid values are:
                     Y = Yes
                     N = No (the default)
