Element and Salary Details of Transfer Workforce Compensation Data to HR Process

The salary and element mapping property configurations of the compensation amount columns determine where the Transfer Workforce Compensation Data to HR process posts the data. The configurations also determine the step where you configure the transfer details.

If Post as Salary is No, the changes post to the element entry of the specified payroll element. You include or exclude this data in the transfer using the Element Details page. If none of the compensation amount columns in the plan have this property configuration, then the Element Details page of the transfer process is blank.

If Post as Salary is Yes, the changes update people's salary records. If the column also has a salary component specified, such as Merit or Cost of Living, the salary changes include that component for future reference. If none of the compensation amount columns in the plan have this property configuration, then the Salary Details page of the transfer process is blank.

Given that plans can have up to five compensation amount columns, the transfer might have all amounts post to either elements or salary records. Or the transfer might have some amounts post to elements and others to salary records.
