FTE Adjustments for Salary Amounts Determined by Simple Components

When simple components decide the salary amount, HR actions ignore the salary adjustment type selected for the grade ladder. The actions always prorate the progression grade ladder rate component for FTE changes, along with other components.

You can configure the calculations to use FTE or Adjusted FTE when prorating the amount. Use the ORA_CMP_USE_AFTE_INSTEAD_FTE profile option and set the site-level profile value.

  • If the profile option value is No, the calculations use FTE from the assignment.
  • If the profile option value is Yes, the calculations use the Adjusted FTE value from the assignment. If the Adjusted FTE is NULL or 0, FTE from the assignment is used instead.

Here's what happens if the calculations use FTE:

  • HR actions adjust all component amounts, including the progression grade ladder rate component, when FTE isn't equal to 1.

  • HR actions don't adjust the component amounts when FTE is 1.

Here's what happens if the calculations use Adjusted FTE:

  • HR actions adjust all component amounts, including the progression grade ladder rate component, when Adjusted FTE isn't equal to 1.

  • HR actions don't adjust the component amounts when Adjusted FTE is 1.

The HR actions prorate the progression grade ladder rate component amount, even when the grade and step aren’t changed. For example, the Change Working Hours action always prorates the amount. But if you deselect Update salary if proposed salary is less than current salary, any HR action that would result in a lower component amount can't default the lower component amount. But people can still manually adjust the amount lower.
