Symptom
This KB article explains how to add or delete a member from Compensation & Variable Pay worksheet or move a member between plans.
- We use the term Member to refer to a person who is on a worksheet.
- This will be done by a "planner" or Compensation administrator.
- A common scenario is the manager is the "planner" and his/her employees are the "members" on the worksheet.

- Employee/Worksheet Membership
Resolution
Employee's on Compensation or Variable Pay worksheets are typically moved for one of the following three reasons:
- If an employee changes planner, the Administrator will need to manually move the employee to the new planner's Compensation worksheet.
- When an employee joins the company (New Hire), the Administrator will need to manually enter him/her into the appropriate planner's worksheet.
For example if the Compensation worksheets have already been created and the employee is eligible to participate in this cycle, you can add them. - When an employee leaves the company, the Administrator will need to manually remove the employee from the appropriate planner worksheets.
To access the Employee membership section of your plan please navigate to the following.
Admin Tools> Compensation> Compensation Home> Select Plan> Manage Worksheets> Employee Membership

Note: Always ensure to delete the budget with the employee should this be required. If this is not done there will be budget inconsistency’s.
Automatically Transfer Variable Pay Worksheets to Other Managers/Planners
- You have the option to automatically manage employee changes during the Variable Pay process.
You can specify the actions you want to take for each change scenario and those changes are automatically applied to all in-progress and completed (optional) worksheets. - Go to the Update Worksheets page to automatically move a Variable Pay entry when there has been a manager change, and to remove inactive employee or planner forms.
Make your selections and click Update to save your changes.
Note: These updates happen one time only. You must return to this screen each time to process changes after each new employee import. Alternatively, you may automate these options if you import employee data via FTP.
IMPORTANT
You can have the same employee within the one plan on multiple worksheets when manually moving and adding them. For example
- Employee A is on worksheet 1
- Move Employee A onto worksheet 2 using the "Move Employees" option
- Add Employee A onto worksheet 1 using the "Add Employees" option
- Check both worksheets and you will see Employee on both.
Note: Selecting the "Do not duplicate employees on worksheets" from Plan Setup > Settings> Advanced Settings does NOT affect what is manually being done here.
This option ONLY kicks in during worksheet creation.

- The change is, while adding employees and using eligibility rules on base object employementInfo the start-date and end-dates will be ignored.
- Following b1911 deletion of members from completed worksheets can now be performed.
