Understanding Salary Recommendation Reviews

The Compensation Review Workbench program (P08826 for human resource representatives or P08824 for managers) is the initial entry point for the salary review process. Both managers and human resources administrators use this program. The workbench provides you with a compensation planning tool to make salary recommendations using budgets, rules, and guidelines that the human resources department sets up.

The workbench enables you to perform these tasks:

  • Maintain multiple versions of different salary recommendations.

  • Review the salary budget allocation, budget spent, and budget remaining by increase types.

  • Review and change salary recommendations of a specified supervisor.

Managers access the Compensation Review Workbench program (P08824) through the Manager Self Service menu (G05BMSS1). When managers access the workbench, the supervisor field is disabled and the system automatically supplies the supervisor number.

Human resources administrators access the workbench through the Compensation Mgmt Periodic Processing menu (G08CM12). When you use the workbench as a human resources administrator, the supervisor field is enabled so that you can enter a supervisor number. You can enter a supervisor number and review the records of the employees who are in that supervisor reporting structure. You can then review or change salary recommendations and review summary information about the employees who report to that supervisor.
