1. Go to Add New Employee.
2. Fill in all the information relevant for the Identity, Personal and Job Info session.
3. After submitting the new hire, pay components should be defaulted.

SAP Guidelines has a procedure on how to default pay component during hire and rehire processes. Please see the details at Optional: Defaulting Pay Components During Hire/Rehire

Here are some tips about the rule configuration:

• If you are using Pay Component Recurring Model as Base Object, you can select Trigger onSave Rules for HRIS Elements;
• If you are selecting any other Base Object, the scenario must be Trigger Cross-Entity Rules (see details at Cross-Entity Rules); 
• The rule must be assigned onSave in Manage Business Configuration;
• You can also set the default pay component in compensation information during hiring based on the pay scale level selection in the Job Information with Trigger onInit Rules for Hire/Rehire as the scenario for the rule (details at Example Business Rules under section "Set Pay Component During Hire Process");

Notes:

• There must be an IF with a pay component in it for the rule to work;
• For existing users the rule will work only when the pay component mentioned in the IF condition is the first pay component for them;
• If there is already an existing pay component, then this rule may not work. Also this rule will only work in hire via Add New Employee Scenarios.
• If the same pay component id is set by other rule or same system will save only the last one set by rule will be kept as system does not support multiple entries by same pay component id. This kind of rule is also applied for concurrent employment scenarios.
