Update Employee Compensation Band Assignments During an Active Compensation Cycle

  • Updated

Admins can make the following updates to an employee’s compensation band assignment during an active compensation cycle: 

  • Assign an employee to a different compensation band
  • Assign a compensation band to an employee who doesn’t have one
  • Remove a compensation band assignment from an employee

Changes made to employee compensation band assignments will only be reflected in cycles that are still in draft or active state; they will not be reflected in a cycle once it is ended.
