How to Set Unique Employee History fields by Program

Different Variable Pay programs often have differing eligibility rules, calculations and incentive program variables (e.g. earnings versus YE salary). This information is defined in the Employee History Data file and defined specifically for each customer in the data model (background-element id=varPayEmpHistData). The Employee Detail section of the VP manager form includes these customer defined fields to help end users audit, verify and understand specific VarPay program participation and calculations.

• SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite
• Compensation and Variable Pay

Context:

• It isn’t required to create a background element for every Variable Pay plan. A new background element is required only if the customer's required fields have been changed. In such cases, the data model can have multiple background element sections.
• Customers can define different employee history fields in the data model for different Variable Pay programs
• The Variable Pay employee history fields are defined in the data model.
• You can differentiate which Employee history fields display for which Variable Pay program.

 Configuration Steps:  

• This is an opt-in change requiring modification to the Form Template XML and Data Model XML.
• As a customer, you do not have access to Provisioning. Please engage a Certified Partner to assist with this configuration.
• You may refer to KBA 3346452 for a list of configuration changes that can be accommodated by Product Support.
• You may also create new employee history background elements via Manage Business Configuration (BCUI), under the subsections Employee Profile > Background Elements

Example configurations:
 
   < background-element id="varPayEmpHistData4ProgramA" type-id="24">
   <label>Variable Pay History Data</label>
   <data-field id="startDate" field-name="startDate" required="true" max-length="999" max-file-size-KB="1000">
   <label>Start Date</label>
   < /data-field>
   .......
   < /background-element>
   < background-element id="varPayEmpHistData4ProgramB" type-id="24">
   <label>Variable Pay History Data</label>
   <data-field id="startDate" field-name="startDate" required="true" max-length="999" max-file-size-KB="1000">
   <label>Start Date</label>
   < /data-field>
   ...
   </background-element>
