• Weights and Business Goals not showing in worksheets correctly.
• How to define the import file?

SAP Success Factors Compensation Variable Pay

• In Variable Pay Weights and Mappings are required in the Template in order to establish a link between the business goals and the bonus plans. This then determines the unique weights we wish to set for these fields.
• See below for details on how to define the import file.

• The business goal weights file is imported into SuccessFactors at: Admin Tools > Compensation Home > Select correct plan > Plan Setup > Plan Details > Import Business Goal Weights. Business goal weights must be imported prior to calculating bonus payouts.
• When the business goal weights file is imported, there is an option to Delete all existing records prior to importing new data. It is strongly recommended that a full file replacement be done each time, so this option should generally be selected.

 
Important! The business goal weight file must be re-imported every time the business goals file (discussed in the previous section) is imported to reestablish the link between business goals and bonus plans.

Assumptions on file format:

• The import file should be a CSV text file: comma-delimited, with string values enclosed in double quotes. The file can be named anything you wish (but should have a .csv extension).
• The first record is designated as the system header for the field.
• Bonus plan name and Business Goal name is unique for a bonus program.
• If the same relationship appears more than once in the file then the last one will actually take in to effect
• All percentages should be imported in decimal format (Example. 10% = .10)

     Validations

• Bonus plan and bonus program exist for the program.
• Weight should be between 0 and 1.
