Business Rule Changes on Salary Pages

You can now achieve these outcomes using Visual Builder Studio business rules:

• Default a salary basis using the new Proposed Salary Basis Code attribute. Earlier you could default a salary basis using only the Proposed Salary Basis attribute.

• Define business rules that can use a new attribute to differentiate between initiator and approver. You can include it in your business rule condition to vary the behavior on the Redwood Admin Change Salary, Line Manager Change Salary, and Salary History pages.
• Restrict the ability to add or remove incremental components or simple components to only certain roles using page constants.

• Hide the ranges that appear under rate definition names for salaries determined using rates, using a page constant.

These enhancements let accelerate your default and validation rule adoption and exclude irrelevant values.

Steps to Enable and Configure

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

• These changes apply to all Redwood salary pages and to salary sections on Global HR and Offer pages.

• When both proposed salary basis and proposed salary basis code are configured, the proposed salary basis code takes precedence.

• When a salary basis is excluded and you attempt to correct a salary using the excluded value, the salary basis field will be empty.
