Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central - Compensation Information
Resolution
When configuring Pay Components, you must specify the following 2 values in order for the system to determine which Pay Component is available in which section/portlet -:
- Recurring
- Target
These options can be set in different combinations, which will allow the system to determine which portlet the Pay Component will be available in, to the end user.
The 2 standard area's where Pay Components are displayed are -:
-
payComponentRecurring
-
payComponentNonRecurring
For a Pay Component to display in the 2 area's for payComponentRecurring, the Recurring/Target options for the Pay Component must be set as follows -:
payComponentRecurring -:
For a Pay Component to display in the Spot Bonus portlet (payComponentNonRecurring), the Recurring/Target options for the Pay Component must be set as follows -:
payComponentNonRecurring -:
Important Expected Behaviour Note
- There are a few other fields in the Pay Component configuration
- Display on Self-Service: This is only considered in self-service pages (ESS/MSS)
- isEarning: This flag determines if the Pay Component is used for Deductions. This is ignored in Compensation Information. For Pay Component Non recurring(or Spot Bonus portlet), a warning message appears if a deduction Pay component is assigned(Refer KBA 3275887 - Warning Message In One-Time Payment "You've selected a deduction pay component")
- In cases where Display on Self-service = No and isEarning = No, then the Pay Component is relevant only for Self-service Scenarios for Deductions.
- It is important that the DSS flag is not considered in the Add New Hire wizard, so there is a possibility that Deduction Pay Components appear under Compensation Information > Compensation for the hire scenario.
Please note the following behaviours for the Spot Bonus (payComponentNonRecurring) portlet
- Only Non-Recurring Pay Components are selectable under:
- Employment Information/People Profile -> Award Spot Bonus
- Admin -> Add New Employee (New Hire)
- All types of Pay Components (Recurring and Non Recurring) are selectable under:
- Spot Bonus Portlet -> Edit or Plus/Add Icon (+)
