How to Update Base Compensation

Navigate to Team > My Team >  Employee Information 

This will bring up all active employees. Search for the employee whose base compensation you need to update and select the Employee Information Icon to navigate in to the Employee's Profile. 

This will bring up the employee's profile. On the Main tab select Base Compensation. 

Click on the +add button to the right side of the screen to create a new record.

Note:  Best practice is to always add a new record rather than to overwrite the old record so that the base compensation history displays for the employee.

This will pop up a new Add New Base Compensation screen . Input all of the following information:

1.  Effective From: This date needs to be when you would like the new base compensation to be effective. 

2.  Reason Code (if applicable): The reason for the base compensation change

3.  Amount: This will need to be the new amount 

4:  Amount Earning Autopay: If you are updating a salaried employee, you will need to make sure that Regular is added into this box. If this is an hourly employee, leave this field blank.

After all information has been updated, Save the record.
