You can now view the individual compensation details in the BI Publisher approval notifications using a new aggregate privilege without having to grant the approvers the ability to manage personal contribution, individual compensation, or administer individual compensation.

Earlier, the approver needed the manage aggregate privileges of the action to view the details.

This enhancement gives you the flexibility to let approvers just view data without needing the manage privileges.

Steps to Enable

Grant the aggregate privilege to your custom approver roles.

Tips And Considerations

  • The new aggregate privilege is shipped standalone and isn't inherited by any roles.
  • The approver with the new aggregate privilege can view the individual compensation details in only Personal Contribution, Individual Compensation, and Administer Compensation BI Publisher notifications. It doesn't affect the application behavior on any other pages.
  • When customers with custom data models want to use this feature, they have to include this role in the data security check query: CMP_VIEW_INDIVIDUAL_COMPENSATION_DATA.

  • When an approver without the manage privileges clicks Edit, one of these pages opens:
    • Home page when the transaction was started from a Redwood page
    • Blank page when the transaction was started from a classic or responsive page

Access Requirements
