How to Mass Update/View History Employees Salary & Allowances

This screen is used to initiate a background process (see Background Processing section later in this document) that will perform the following updates for all Employees in the Employee Groups selected:

•Update compensation records (salary) for all Employees, based on a new Salary Grid for the Employee Group

•Optionally update Compensation records (allowance) for all Employees based on a new Allowance Grid for the selected Allowance Code (a separate parameter record can be specified for each allowance code to be updated)

•Optionally update the Employees’ compensation step on the Grid and pass on the corresponding amount based on Service / Seniority value for each Employee

Compensation records are used by the payroll system to calculate Employee payment amounts. Compensation records can be updated manually; however using the background process reduces the effort and risk of errors significantly.

Only the same Run Mode and the same Adjustment Indicator are allowed in one run.
