Example: Compensation Pay Ranges Scramble Field

You want to scramble compensation pay ranges on your Implementation tenant.
  1. Select the
    Compensation Pay Ranges
    scramble field.
  2. Select the
    Input Percentage Variance
    scramble method.
  3. Enter 10 for
    Variable % Decrease for Minimum
    .
  4. Enter 5 for the
    Variable % Increase for Maximum
    .
For an employee with a
Pay Range Minimum
of 50,000 and a
Pay Range Maximum
of 150,000, Workday:
  • Scrambles to random values according to your input variance percentage settings for the pay range minimum and maximum.
  • Recalculates the segments in between evenly.
Pay Range Minimum
Because you entered 10 for the
Variable % Decrease for Minimum
, Workday scrambles (decreases) to a random value from 1 through 10 percent, from 45,000 through 50,000.
In this example, Workday randomly selects 6.4%: 50,000 - (50,000 * 0.064) = 46,800.
Pay Range Maximum
Because you entered 5 for the
Variable % Increase for Maximum
, Workday scrambles (increases) to a random value from 1 through 5 percent, from 150,000 through 157,500.
In this example, Workday randomly selects 2.2%: 150,000 + (150,000 * 0.022) = 153,300.
Pay range segments.
Workday recalculates segments evenly, exactly as if you selected the
Calculate Segments
check box on the
Create Compensation Grade
task:
  • Minimum = 46,800.
  • Segment 1 Top = 82,300.
  • Segment 2 Top = 117,800.
  • Maximum (or Segment 3 Top) = 153,300.
  • Midpoint = 100,050.
