Administering Seniority Pay

To administer seniority pay, use the Update Seniority Pay (RUN_CMP013) and Update Seniority Eligibility (RUN_CMP014) components.

To administer seniority pay:

  1. Run the Update Seniority Pay process (CMP013) to add and update seniority rate codes in worker compensation packages.

    You can also add seniority rate codes to worker compensation packages manually. Even though you add these codes manually, the Update Seniority Pay (CMP013) process updates them.

  2. Run the Update Seniority Eligibility process (CMP014S) to determine if workers are still eligible for seniority pay components.

    If a worker is no longer eligible for seniority pay, the system removes the seniority rate code from that worker's compensation package. However, the process does not remove the seniority rate codes that were added manually.

  3. Run the Multiple Seniority Components report and review the worker records that have multiple seniority rate codes and determine whether the seniority components are appropriate.

This topic provides an overview of the Update Seniority Pay process, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to administer seniority pay.

To run the Update Seniority Pay process:

  1. Run the Application Engine process HR_CMP013.

    The Application Engine process finds the workers who meet the criteria specified in the run control parameters, and loads their information into a temporary table.

  2. Run the SQR report CMP013 to review the information loaded by the Application Engine process.

  3. Run the Application Engine process HR_CMP013_CI to load the information to the worker Job Data pages.
