Understanding Fringe Rates
The Fringe Rates screen has a field for a base fringe rate, and you can add fields for additional fringe categories.
If your institution only has a base fringe rate, enter it in the Base Fringe Rate field as a percentage without the %.
If you have additional categories of fringe, whether they are job classification fringe rates or each individual has a variety of different rates, add them by clicking 
and entering a name and amount/percentage.
Please note: if you are using dollar figures for any fringe rate, the calculations for the Total Fringe Rate in a professional profile will not include this rate unless a salary is provided.
After a rate has been added and used in professional profiles, changes to that rate's value will be reflected in any profile that it has been added to unless the rate's name is changed. We do not recommend changing the name of an existing rate to reflect a change in its value.
