Understanding the Change Employee Salary Process

eCompensation Manager Desktop provides three self service transactions that improve the efficiency for changing employee salaries:

Note: The Request Ad Hoc Salary Change and Approve Ad Hoc Salary Change transactions (classic version) are no longer supported. They are replaced by guided self-service transaction and approval functionality in Fluid. For more information about guided self-service transactions, performing and approving ad hoc salary requests in Fluid, see Understanding Guided Self-Service Transactions and Compensation Details Page.

  • Request Ad Hoc Salary Change.

  • Approve Ad Hoc Salary Change.

  • View Ad Hoc Salary Change Status.

To complete the salary change process, a manager:

  1. Accesses the Request Ad Hoc Salary Change page.

    The system displays a list of the manager's direct reports.

  2. Selects an employee.

  3. Enters information about the salary change.

  4. Submits the request.

    The system either updates the job compensation records or sends notifications to the approving managers.

The approving manager:

  1. Accesses the Approve Ad Hoc Salary Change page.

  2. Approves or denies the salary change request for the employee.

    The details of the salary change cannot be altered. However, the approving manager can enter a comment regarding the salary change.

Note: Using the View Ad Hoc Salary Change Status page, managers can check on the status of the request. Administrators access the Ad Hoc Salary Change page (administrator-specific) to view and process salary change requests, if needed.

Before you can begin the Request Ad Hoc Salary Change process you must:

  1. Activate Workflow.

  2. Set up group build if Group ID is going to be used as the access type for managers requesting salary changes for their direct reports.

  3. Set up the access type for the Request Ad Hoc Salary Change transaction (the HR_SALCHG_MGR component) on the Direct Reports Transaction Configuration page.
