The PeopleSoft eCompensation Manager Desktop application delivers 18 alert definitions. The Compensation Alert Definition component, however, is strictly intended for the maintenance of the valid alert message definitions that are available for processing. The records in the tables are delivered as default data and should only be changed or manipulated in cases where your implementation demands it.

---|---|
Event Code |

Status |
Select Active to activate a specific event for processing. |
Allow Delete and Allow Duplicates |
Select the Allow Delete check box to allow users to delete rows. If the Allow Duplicate check box has also been selected, then duplicate alert messages are supported. If the Allow Duplicates check box is deselected, the system replaces any existing message. |
Preferred Display |
Select either Default, Notify, Review, or Update to indicate the preferred time period the alert should be available for display. Please note that this preferred period may not be defined depending on how the cycle definition has been set up. These display periods relate directly back to the same periods that have been set within the Administer Compensation Cycle component, which was created by the administrator. The actual range of date are specific to each cycle. |
Text Catalog Keys Tab
Text catalog keys are used to populate the message text for the alert. The Object owner identifier, Sub ID and Text ID fields all contain existing prompt values currently in use when setting up the HR Test Catalog.
Use the Maintain Text Catalog page (HR_SSTEXT_TEXT) to create or update the message text used for compensation alerts within the eCompensation Manager Self Service functionality.
