Understanding Compensation Pivot Grids

PeopleSoft Pivot Grid is a PeopleTools technology that provides operational dashboard reporting. Pivot Grids are self-service, multi-dimensional analytics built into the applications that provide users with improved analytic capabilities and the business intelligence needed to make informed decisions. Compensation leverages this functionality and builds pivot grids that will streamline the process of viewing and analyzing data for users in compensation cycles.

Using pivot grids:

• Managers can view salary information in a graphical format to better understand the overall compensation levels of their employees. They are able to view and compare the performance rating and compensation levels of their direct and indirect reports to ensure that their employees are being compensated equitably according to their performance.

• Administrators are able to keep track of the status of all salary proposals within a compensation cycle, as well as identify the proposals that are outside the recommended guidelines that need follow-up.

Compensation delivers a number of pivot grids to provide quick, real-time reporting capabilities to administrators and managers during a compensation cycle. By default, they are displayed as charts but users can change to the display option easily to have them presented in the grid format.
