2641834 - Compensation & Variable Pay - Suppressed Statements

Symptom

Administrators can add a custom column to a Compensation or Variable Pay template to control if a statement is generated for an employee.

Why is this important?

  • Often, reward statements would not need to be generated for employees in certain situations, such as those not receiving a pay increase or bonus payout.
  • With this enhancement the administrator can define when statements are not generated.

Resolution

Prerequisites

To use this feature a custom column on the worksheet needs to be defined with a value of "TRUE" or "FALSE".

For example: if(merit=0,"FALSE","TRUE")

You can define from the templates setting screen (Plan Setup> Settings> Statement Generation Settings) which custom field you would like to use for suppressing statements.

This custom field being used MUST be of STRING value and always set to be reportable.

  • FALSE Outcome of this column means NO statement will be generated for users
  • TRUE Outcome of this column means statements WILL be generated for users

NOTE

  • When generating statements for users you will get a log file to confirm who has not had statements generated for them.
  • The following is an example of a log file where one statement was generated and the second was suppressed.

  • Also note this log file will NOT generate should you create statements using the "By employee name".
