Examples of How FTE and Salary Amount Changes Work
These examples show how a full-time equivalent (FTE) change affects an annual salary. The effect depends on the salary basis frequency and whether you use components to itemize the salary adjustment.
In both examples, you make these changes:
- Change the person's FTE from 1.0 to 0.5 starting on July 1, 2019 using the Manage Employment task.
- Add a salary change that also starts on July 1, 2019 using the Salary task.
Or make an assignment and a salary change together starting on July 1, 2019 using the Change Working Hours task.
Changes to a Monthly Salary Basis
Because you're using the same start date, the salary calculations automatically adjust all the salary amounts and related metrics using the new 0.75 FTE.
| Salary Info | Previous Value | New Value |
|---|---|---|
| FTE | 1 | 0.75 |
| Salary Amount | 10,000 | 7,500 |
| Adjustment Amount | NA | 0 |
| Adjustment Percentage | NA | 0 |
| Annual Salary | 120,000 | 90,000 |
| Annualized Full-Time Salary | 120,000 | 120,000 |
| Salary Range | 10,000-20,000 | 7,500-15,000 |
| Compa-Ratio | 66.67 | 66.67 |
| Range Position | 0 | 0 |
| Quartile | 1 | 1 |
| Quintile | 1 | 1 |
Changes to an Hourly Salary Basis
The calculations use the 2080 annualization factor and the new 0.75 FTE. The calculations don't automatically adjust the salary amount because FTE doesn't affect hourly periodicities the way it affects all other periodicities.
| Salary Info | Previous Value | New Value |
|---|---|---|
| FTE | 1 | 0.75 |
| Salary Amount | 50 | 50 |
| Adjustment Amount | NA | 0 |
| Adjustment Percentage | NA | 0 |
| Annual Salary | 104,000 | 78,000 |
| Annualized Full-Time Salary | 104,000 | 104,000 |
| Salary Range | 10,000-20,000 | 7,500-15,000 |
| Compa-Ratio | 66.67 | 66.67 |
| Range Position | 0 | 0 |
| Quartile | 1 | 1 |
| Quintile | 1 | 1 |
Changes to an Annual Frequency Incremental Salary Basis
When you change the FTE for an incremental salary basis with an annual frequency, such as from 1 to 0.75, the salary info adjusts. And the incremental component values get set to 0.
| Salary Info | Previous Value | New Value |
|---|---|---|
| FTE | 1 | 0.75 |
| Salary Amount | 100,000 | 75,000 |
| Annual Salary | 100,000 | 75,000 |
| Annualized Full-Time Salary | 100,000 | 100,000 |
| Salary Range | 50,000-1500,000 | 37,500-112,500 |
| Compa-Ratio | 100 | 100 |
| Range Position | 50 | 50 |
| Quartile | 3 | 3 |
| Quintile | 3 | 3 |
| Incremental Component | Previous Value | New Values |
|---|---|---|
| Adjustment | 10,000 | 0 |
| Cost of Living | 5,000 | 0 |
| Equity | 5,000 | 0 |
| Location | 10,000 | 0 |
| Market | 10,000 | 0 |
| Merit | 60,000 | 0 |
