Admins can synch each employee's level automatically using the Job level default field. Auto-sync helps remove the duplicative work of manually updating employees when they move into a different level within their compensation band.
Note: This process replaces the previous custom field functionality of connecting an field to auto-sync track levels within the Grow Settings page. Learn more in What to expect after track level auto-syncing with custom fields is now deprecated?
Before you start
- Auto-syncing job levels allow employees to move levels within their assigned track automatically. If an employee is not in the track yet, they need to be assigned to the track first. If an employee moves to a different track, the track change will need to be updated manually.
- You do not need to input job architecture (job function or job type) fields to align job level in a track.
Auto-sync job levels
Admins can set up and link track levels to the default field job level values separately from aligning a track to job function and job type.
Step 1: Sync or import the default job level field
- Navigate to Admin > Organization > People > Fields.
- Sync or import your company job levels to the default job architecture field Job Level.
Step 2: Align Grow track levels to the job level
- Navigate to Admin > Grow > Tracks.
- Enter the desired track and navigate to the Settings tab.
- Expand the Manage job architecture and job levels section.
- Under Manage job levels, align each track level with the desired job level field by selecting the job level field next to the corresponding track level.
- Select Update Levels.
