Administer an Individual's Hierarchies and Access for a Workforce Compensation Plan Cycle
Manager and reviewer responsibilities during a workforce compensation cycle depend on the plan hierarchy and access settings.
- Primary managers finalize and approve workforce compensation plan changes submitted by their subordinate managers. They also finalize their own changes and then submit all of these changes to their approver.
- Secondary managers and other reviewers view plans delegated by the primary manager. Depending on the setup, they can suggest changes to the primary manager. The delegated individuals they review might appear in a different reporting structure than they do in the primary hierarchy.
Sometimes you might need to change the manager or reviewer. For example, the current primary manager is the new line manager for the person as the result of a recent internal transfer. You want the primary manager for this assignment, plan, and cycle to be their previous line manager because that manager knows this person better. Any hierarchy changes don't change the line manager for the assignment.
As needed, you can override the access levels configured for these hierarchies. For example, you want to remove all access for the primary manager. And you do want to give the secondary manager access and let them make changes.
You can change the plan hierarchies and access on the Administer Workers page, Status and Hierarchy tab. The changes apply only for the selected person, assignment, workforce compensation plan, and plan cycle.
