Understanding Compensation Review Updates

Select Compensation Mgmt Advanced & Tech Oper (Operations) (G08CM13), Compensation Review Updates.

After the compensation review period has closed and the final review has been submitted, the new compensation information needs to be updated to the Employee Master Information table (F060116). The Compensation Review Updates program (R08332) creates a history record for the new total salary change and updates the history table with the different increase types that make up the new salary. The increase types are associated with the appropriate change reasons.

Because the Compensation Review Updates program makes immediate changes to compensation information, you should run the update during the pay period for which the increase applies, but before prepayroll is processed for that pay period.

After the human resources administrator closes the compensation review process, he or she should also perform these tasks:

  • Set the CMPSYNC common setting to No to clear the synchronization of the compensation work tables.

  • Set the CMPOPEN common setting to No to close the compensation review process.

After updating the Employee Master table, the system clears the work tables and purges any comments that are stored as media object text and are associated with the compensation review.
