Mass Propose Compensation Change

You can process compensation changes as part of a mass

Change Job

business process. When you initiate a mass job change for a population of workers, you can edit their compensation details in the

Compensation Change

tab of the mass action interface. The columns in this tab are based on the fields you configure for your Compensation Change template. Your Compensation Change template must be enabled for the

Change Job

business process type.

When you initiate a mass

Change Job

, Workday creates a corresponding compensation event for each worker. This enables compensation rules and defaulting to run based on the proposed job changes. You can view these events in the

Compensation Group Event Details

report.

The fields and options visible in the

Compensation Change

tab and the

Mass Edit

modal depend on your permissions for domains associated with those fields and options. You can only view and modify compensation data for workers if they’re authorized to manage that specific compensation data.

When you select workers to mass edit and have the appropriate security access, you can access these sections:

Change Compensation Guidelines
Adjust Base Pay Plans

To access the

Change Compensation Guidelines

section, your Compensation Change template must include the

Guidelines

section. To access the

Adjust Base Pay Plans

section, your Compensation Change template must include both the

Hourly

and

Salary

sections.

You can increase or decrease existing

Salary

and

Hourly

plan amounts or percentages. This action only modifies plans already assigned to a worker; it doesn't assign new plans.

This feature isn’t available for all workers. It excludes:

Contingent workers.
Workers whose primary compensation basis is Manage Basis Total (MBT). If a change made during the mass
Change Job
process causes a worker to become MBT-eligible, their compensation data won’t be updated.
