Setting Up Global Payroll to Work with Variable Compensation

In the Variable Compensation application, each variable compensation plan must be mapped to the appropriate Global Payroll earning elements.

In Global Payroll, you identify the earning elements that are associated with the award records that you want to retrieve and process. You enter this information on the Run Types page (in the Variable Compensation Details group box) when you set up the run type for the calendars that you use for award processing.

During the award retrieval process, the system retrieves only the award records that are associated with the earning elements that are included in the run type.
