To correctly change the rate for each employee in Swipeclock:

1. Go to Employee Setup.
2. Select the employee name.
3. Under the Employee Data section, select Edit.
   
   
   
   
4. Go to Default Pay Rate. Enter the rate amount.
   
   
   
   
5. Select the Effective today option in the dropdown.
   
   If you need the rate to be effective for the prior pay period, make sure the effective date is the first day of the prior pay period.
   
   For example: The pay period effective date should be 8/16/2021 even though today's date is 8/26/21. Or, you might choose a custom date if the raise starts during the pay period.
   
   If you don't change the Effective today date, the new rate will only show for that effective date and on.
