Step 1 - Creating/Launching Worksheets

Before launching worksheets, make your you have correctly linked employees to their business/bonus plans as well as running bonus calculation.

• Navigate to Compensation Home> Select your template> Manage Worksheets
• Here there will be several available options
• To create worksheets, select the "Create worksheets" option under Plan Action> launch

• Within the popup up screen you will have three sections to populate.

Fill out these sections as required.

Worksheet Name

• Define what title you would like the worksheet(s) to have. This will show within employee inboxes through Compensation.
• Note: Please avoid using characters such as /, \ as this may cause issues accessing the worksheets. If this is required, we recommend using - instead.

Set Plan Dates

• Here define the start/end date of the worksheet(s) as well as a due date.
• For example, the start date could be 01/01/20** and end date 12/31/20** which is normally the planning period of your template.
• Enter a due date of your choosing which is typically when the planning process should be completed by.
• These three fields are mandatory and need to be populated and will also show within the planner inboxes.

Select worksheets to create

• If you want to launch multiple worksheets at one time do not select the "Create for head of Planning only" option and select the head of your hierarchy.
• Typically, this would be the CEO and when launching forms worksheets will go to your defined planners. This can be checked in define planners.
• If you would like to create one worksheet rather than multiple for the whole hierarchy, then select the name of the planner you want to create a worksheet for and select "Create for head of Planning only".
• NOTE: Creating one worksheet for a specific planner is good for testing as you are not creating multiple worksheets.
• Selecting the "Send email notification to planner(s)" will trigger an email to be sent onto the respective planners.
• This is only applicable if "Document Creation Notification" is enabled.

Step 2 - Reviewing worksheets

The worksheets can be viewed from the Compensation Inbox.
