Hi there, elec246. Allow me to explain why the changes in your employee's hourly rate cause retroactive changes in pay.
In QuickBooks Time, the change in an employee's pay rate affects the job costing report for all time, which means it includes the past. This explains why as you change the pay rate of your customer and run a report, you'll see in the report their time is being multiplied with the new rate that you've input.
Since you want to use a feature that enables you to change the paid hour but won't affect the past, I recommend sending feedback so that our developers might consider your feedback.
Here's how:
- At the bottom, select Suggest an idea.
- Enter your idea, then select Post a new idea or Vote for an existing idea.
- Optional: Select a category.
- Describe the idea, and select Post idea.
In addition, I've got some materials that you can scan whenever you want to dig deeper or want to submit a feedback in QuickBooks Time:
