Overview of Assignment Segments in Workforce Compensation Plan Worksheets

You can include prorated values for relevant component worksheet columns is a separate table in the worksheet when you configure assignment segments.

Rather than multiple columns in the detail table, you can show the information using separate rows for each segment. And you can let managers make changes in the relevant fields. For example, the bonus amount for this person is calculated according to their eligible earnings and target percentage for 2 segments of time during the workforce compensation cycle.

Start Date End Date Salary Currency Days Eligible Proration Factor Eligible Earnings Target % Target Amount Modifier Payout Amount
Jan 1 Mar 14 75,000 USD 73

.2

(73/365)

15,000 15 2,250 1.1 2,473
Mar 15 Dec 31 82,500 USD 292

.8

(292/365)

66,000 20 13,200 1.1 14,520
16,995

The segment values, in this case payout amounts, are summed and shown in the table footer. When the manager clicks Apply, the total passes to the read-only worksheet column that you specified.

Tip: It's important that when you configure assignment segments, you start with the end in mind. Identify what data you need to store, what you want to calculate, and what data is and isn't editable.
