Salary Bases

Before you hire employees, you have to configure the payroll definitions and create a salary basis.

  2. From My Client Groups, click Compensation.

  3. Click Salary Basis.

  4. Click Create.

  5. Select the element you want to use for the salary basis and provide the required info.

  6. Click Save and Close.

Assign the Salary Basis

Once you have completed the setup for the salary basis, you can assign salary info to an employee.

  1. Sign in to the application with a role that has compensation manager privileges, such as CMP_MGR_ALL.

  2. From My Client Groups, click Compensation.

  3. Click Change Salary, and then search for and select the employee.

  4. In Salary Details, enter a salary basis and salary amount.

  5. Click Continue.
