Create Period Salary Plans

Create Period Salary Plans

  • Set up compensation components and grades.
  • Create compensation basis.
  • Security:
    Set Up: Base and Plan
    domain in the Core Compensation functional area.
Create a plan that enables you to assign extra months, weeks, or days of pay to employees.
  1. Access the
    Create Period Salary Plan
    task.
  2. In the
    Details
    section, select Inactive to indicate the plan isn't available for use.
    Processes already using plans marked Inactive complete as normal.
  3. In the
    Period Salary Defaults
    section, consider:
    Opzione Descrizione
    Compensation Element
    Compensation elements store the earnings associated with compensation.
    If you select a compensation element designated as base pay, Workday includes the plan's compensation in the employee's base pay calculation.
    Compensation Period Multiplier
    Multiplies the
    Compensation Period
    . (Up to 2 decimal places allowed.)
    Example: If the
    Compensation Period Multiplier
    is 15.50 and the
    Compensation Period
    is Day, Workday assigns 15.50 extra days to pay employees.
    Compensation Basis
    Available if you select the
    Percent Based
    Plan
    option.
    Select the compensation basis Workday uses to determine the target amount (if the worker isn't managed by a compensation basis) for this plan. If the worker is managed by a compensation basis, Workday doesn't exclude this plan when calculating the target amount.
    If you select a compensation basis that includes this plan, Workday excludes this plan when calculating the employee's target amount.
    If you select a subtractive compensation basis, Workday subtracts the subtractive basis amount from the worker's primary compensation basis before calculating the percentage-based target amount.
    If the plan is part of a compensation basis that has the
    Manage Basis Total
    check box selected, you can't change the selected compensation basis. In this case, the period salary plan works like any other proportional plan. Workday allows individual plan changes in business processes that allow compensation changes.
  4. In the
    Plan Eligibility
    section, select 1 or more rules.
    Eligibility rules determine which employees are eligible for this period salary plan. If you select multiple eligibility rules, Workday evaluates each rule independently to determine employee eligibility for the stock plan. Employees are eligible if they meet the qualifications of any one rule.
  5. (Optional) Complete the
    Period Salary Plan Profiles
    section.
    This enables you to have different payout amounts for different groups of employees.
    Example: You can set up 1 profile where the target for an individual employee is 2 months total base pay and another with 3 months total base pay.
You can:
  • Assign (roll out) the plan to employees on the
    Rollout Compensation Plans to Employees
    task.
  • Add the plan to a compensation package on the
    Create Compensation Package
    task.
  • Access the
    Salary Plan
    report for detailed information on a specific plan.
  • Access the
    Edit Period Salary Plan
    task.
    You can update default values only for plans not yet assigned to employees. You can, however, update the
    Compensation Element
    field regardless if the plan is assigned or not.
  • Hide the compensation plan type from specified groups of workers using the
    Worker Data: Compensation Plan Type
    domain in the Core Compensation functional area.
