What are prorated allocations and how do they work?

Automatically adjusts allocation amounts for employees added mid-period.

The prorata option automatically adjusts the amount of an allocation for employees who are added mid-period (e.g., during the year).

It’s especially useful for new hires, so you don’t have to manually calculate amounts based on remaining time.


When does prorata apply?

Prorata works only with recurring allocations (annual, monthly, etc.).

Example:

  • An annual allocation for all employees (or a specific tag)

  • An employee is added during the year

  • The system automatically calculates the amount based on the remaining time in the period

Prorata does not apply:

  • To one-time allocations

  • To allocations created for a single employee


How to configure prorata properly?

  • Create a recurring allocation (e.g., yearly)

  • Define who receives it (with or without a tag)

  • Enable the prorata option

  • Make sure employees have the correct tag when they are added

Important:
You do not need to create a separate allocation for each new employee.


What happens when a new employee is invited?

If the employee:

  • Has the correct tag

  • And is added after the start of the period

The prorated amount is automatically added to their account upon invitation.


Where can I see the prorated amount?

Currently:

  • The prorated amount may not appear in advance in the transaction history

  • It will be visible once the allocation is generated/applied

If you don’t see anything in:

  • “pending allocations”

  • or transaction history

This is normal until the allocation is triggered.
