Request Compensation Change After Termination

Request Compensation Change After Termination

  • Define the steps for
    Request Post Termination Compensation
    business process.
  • Define reasons for the
    Post Termination Assignment
    event using the
    Maintain Event Categories and Reasons
    task.
You can request a salary or hourly plan assignment for an employee 1 day after the employee's termination date up to the employee's
Pay Through Date
. The termination date and the pay through date is defined from either the process or the employee's severance package.
Workday uses the
Pay Through Date
from a severance worksheet to pay severance and to determine payment durations in the
Request Post Termination Compensation
business process.
Workday recommends that you use either the
Request Post Termination Compensation
business process or severance, but not both simultaneously.
  1. Access the
    Request Post Termination Compensation
    task.
  2. As you complete this task, consider:
    Option Description
    Effective Date
    Enter the effective date for this request.
    The date must be 1 day after the termination date and 1 day before the pay through date.
    Employee
    Only terminated employees that match the requirements of the effective date are available for selection.
  3. Complete the proposed compensation.
    If there was already a salary or hourly plan in the post-termination section of a severance package, Workday displays it as deleted. However, you can restore them.
    Workday doesn't calculate retroactive payments.
