Entering Salary Recommendations for Groups of Employees

Access the Quick Entries form.

Increase Type

Enter a code that indicates the reason for:

  • Changing an active employee record

  • Terminating an employee

  • Recommending a change in salary or rate

This is a defined code (06/T). If you are reactivating an employee, the code must be numeric. The code for new hires is the default reason code.

Show Only Eligible Increases

Select an option that specifies whether records will appear when their modified eligibility equals 0.

Pay Grade/Step

Enter a code that designates a category for grouping employees according to pay ranges. For each pay grade, you enter a pay range that includes a minimum, a midpoint, and a maximum pay rate. The system uses these pay ranges to calculate compa-ratios for the employees that you assign to pay grades. After you enter a pay grade for an employee, the system displays either an error or a warning message if you enter a rate for the employee that is not within the pay range for the employee pay grade.

To set up pay grades, use Pay Grades by Class (P082001).

If you have set up the system to use rates in the Pay Grade Step table as the default pay rates for employees, changing an employee pay grade step causes the system to automatically update these fields:

  • Salary

  • Hourly Rate

  • Hours per day

  • Hours per year

  • Days per year
