Updating Salaries by Percentage

To update salaries by percentage, use the Salary Increase ID JPN (SALINC_ID_TBL_JPN_GBL) and Salary Increase Matrix JPN (SALARY_MATRIX_JPN_GBL) components.

This section provides an overview of the update salaries by percentage process and discusses how to update salaries by percentage.

Usage

Define Salary Increase ID Page

SALINC_ID_TBL_JPN

Define a salary increase ID and associate a rate code, which must be of class DFRPAY and of type Flat Amount, and worker groups with it. You run the salary increase simulation by salary increase ID.

Define Salary Increase Matrix Page

SALARY_MATRIX_JPN

Establish the fixed percentage increase for each review rating by quartile. The fields on this page are identical to those on the Define Salary Increase Matrix Table page.

Generate Salary Increase Data Page

RUN_CMPCALC_JPN

Enter the parameters for running the salary increase process and populating the Salary Increase Simulation table.

Simulate Salary Increase Page

SALINC_SIML_JPN

View the results of running the simulation process. All fields in the results grid are display-only, except for the Adjustment Amount field on the Changes tab, in which you can adjust the amount of an individual's salary increase.

Salary Simulation Report Page

RUN_SALREPORT_JPN

Run the Salary Simulation report (CMP020JP) that displays the results of the Salary Increase Simulation process.

Percentage Increase JPN - Load Salary Increase Page

RUN_UP_SALINC_JPN

Update worker job compensation records with the results of the salary increase and adjustment results.

To use the updating salaries by percentages method, which includes a simulation process that shows the effects of various increase options, you set up two tables: the Salary Increase ID table and the Salary Increase Matrix table. In the Salary Increase ID table, you specify a single compensation rate code, which must be of class Defined Range Pay (DFRPAY) and of type Flat Amount. You then run the simulation process, which, like other methods, uses review results in its calculation. You can adjust the result of the simulation for workers, by increasing or decreasing it, and view the overall results—the totals—online. When you are satisfied with the results, you run a second process, similar to the processes that conclude the other methods, to load the salary increase amounts to the workers' job compensation records.

Note: To use this salary increase method, select the Defined Range check box on the Calculation Rule Settings JPN page.

You complete these steps to update salaries by percentage:

  1. Define a Japanese salary increase ID.

  2. Set up a Japanese salary increase matrix.

  3. Run the Run Salary Inc Table process.

  4. Run the salary increase simulation and adjust as required.

  5. Run the load salary increase process.

Use the Define Salary Increase ID page (SALINC_ID_TBL_JPN) to define a salary increase ID and associate a rate code, which must be of class DFRPAY and of type Flat Amount, and worker groups with it.

You run the salary increase simulation by salary increase ID.

Definition

Calculation As Of Date

Enter the effective date that the system uses to determine from which job compensation record it should get the worker's current data to calculate new data. For example, if the worker's review band earns a worker a 6 percent increase, the system must get the existing rate code amount to calculate the new rate code amount.

Salary Increase Date

Enter the effective date of the new job record that the system inserts for the worker for the review-based increased amount. The action and reason are Pay Rate Change and Salary Increase by Percentage.

Comp Rate Code (compensation rate code)

Enter the rate code. It must be of the class Defined Range Pay (DFRPAY) and of the type Flat Amount.

You can add only one compensation rate code for each salary increase ID, and only one salary increase ID is associated with each simulation run. To run a simulation for a different compensation rate code, you must define additional salary increase IDs.

Note: You cannot have more than one rate code of class DFRPAY on a single worker's Job Data - Compensation record.

The process that populates the Salary Increase Simulation table includes all workers in the groups that you specify who have this compensation rate code as well as the currency code and frequency set in the Compensation Rate Code table for this rate code.

If you have changed the default currency code or frequency from that set on the compensation rate table in the workers' job compensation record, then those workers go into error and are not included in the simulation.

Apply Rounding At

Select the numerical "place" at which to apply the rounding rule you select.

Rounding Rule

Select the rounding rule for the simulation process based on this salary increase ID. Options are:

  • Round

  • Round Down

  • Round Up

Group ID

Enter the group IDs for the workers being included in this process.

You must enter at least one group ID to complete this process. If a worker in a group that you specify does not have the compensation rate code that you specified for processing, the system skips the worker without processing.

Note: This salary update method retrieves the required percentage increase from the salary matrix table where you linked review bands to percentage increases, quartile by quartile.

Use the Generate Salary Increase Data page (RUN_CMPCALC_JPN) to enter the parameters for running the salary increase process and populating the Salary Increase Simulation table.

Salary Increase ID

Enter the salary increase ID for which to run the simulation.

Calculation Number

Enter the number that identifies a particular simulation in a series that you might run for comparison purposes.

Select All Groups

Select to have the system populate the Group ID group box with all groups that you originally associated with this salary increase ID.

Group ID

If you do not want to run the simulation for all the groups that you associated with this salary increase ID, deselect the Select All Groups check box and enter only those groups to process.

Note: This process includes only workers with the single compensation rate code that is associated with the salary increase ID, but only if their currency code and frequency are the same as the compensation rate code default.

If you try to run a simulation with a combination of salary increase ID, calculation number, and group ID for which results exist, you get a warning. If you proceed, the results of the previous simulation are overwritten. To add groups to or remove them from an existing simulation and maintain the results of the previous simulation, change the calculation number.

Use the Simulate Salary Increase page (SALINC_SIML_JPN) to view the results of running the simulation process.

All fields in the results grid are display-only, except for the Adjustment Amount field on the Changes tab, in which you can adjust the amount of an individual's salary increase.
