3400431 - Define the PDF file name format - Compensation Advanced Settings

Symptom

This KBA aims to clarify what file's name we are defining with the "Define the PDF file name format" in Compensation Home, when going into Plan Settings/Advanced Settings.

Environment

Reproducing the Issue

Go to Compensation Home
Select a template

This will have a default and a Custom setting. (By clicking "View List of Available Variables" you can see additional info on this feature:)

Advanced Settings is used both for Performance Management and Compensation Modules. However the "Define the PDF file name Format" is not applicable to Compensation, only to Performance Management.
