Lattice Total Compensation allows admins to show employees the value of their base, variable, bonus, and equity compensation all together in one place. Total Compensation must be enabled by an admin before employees can access.
Admins can enable this by clicking the button on the top banner in the Total Compensation admin home page.
By default, all employees will be selected to view their total compensation view. If an admin wants to choose a select group of employees to show the view to, they will be able to manage their visibility settings by clicking the ‘employee visibility’ tab.
In the employee visibility tab, admins are able to choose between managing the visibility by employee or by groups. You are only able to edit these settings if total compensation is not launched.
Managing visibility by employee
Managing by employee allows admins to manually select which employees to exclude from seeing their total compensation view. By default, all employees are set to the ‘visible’ status indicating that they will see their view once launched.
Some employees may show an ‘ineligible’ status indicating that they will not see their view. The reasons an employee may be ineligible include:
- There is no compensation data for this employee
- This employee is paid hourly
- The currency the employee is paid in is missing a currency conversion rate
The reason an employee is ineligible is listed by their name in the table.
Ways to change an employee’s status
- Manually toggling an individual
- Bulk actions by selecting the checkboxes on the left hand side and choosing to bulk change the status
Admins can use the filter bar to search for specific groups or employees. Any status changes are automatically saved.
Managing visibility by groups
Admins are also able to select visibility by using groups created within Lattice. Go here to learn more about how to create groups in Lattice. Lattice groups have the added advantage of allowing admins to define the audience by a specific attribute rather than a manual selection. For example, if a group is defined as employees that have a location of “USA”, if an employee changes location from “USA” to “UK”, they will automatically be removed from the group.
If you have created groups that you would like to define visibility for, admins can select one or more groups from the dropdown. The employees in those groups will appear in the table below, and you can also see if any individuals are ineligible.
Unlike managing by employees, admins are not able to manually override group membership. If admins want to do that, they will need to edit the group itself.
Launching
Once the admin has defined visibility with employees or groups, they will be able to launch to those employees using the enable total compensation button at the top of the page.
