Polaris Data allows you to record any Training that employees undertake and if necessary, mark the relevant training sessions as training so that you can see the costs of these staff training sessions.
(N.B. the training costs will still be included as part of your total wage % for the week)
Assign the training course and relevant date(s) to the employee required by going to STAFF MAINTENANCE > TRAINING and clicking ADD NEW in the top right corner of the screen.
Fill in the Training Course, Date Range and Trainer details and click SAVE
(Contact the Support Team with a list of Courses and Trainers you'd like adding to the system)
The Training details will then appear in the employee's list of training courses and will be held on file for future reference.
You will now notice that the rota on the day(s) the training takes place, will be shaded DARK GREEN (as opposed to the lighter green of Sickness) to denote this.
Simply add a Rota Session as normal; then right-click the session and mark IS TRAINING which will turn the session from Blue (standard hours) to Green (training hours).
The basic wage costs associated to this marked training session will then appear on the Employees Training report, so you know exactly how much of your wages are being spent on training each week (or over a selected period)
(N.B. - The training session cost won't appear on the Employees Training report unless the session is marked as "Is Training")
