Compensation Plan - Comments

The Comments pop-up shows a history of all of the comments made for a user for a specific component in the compensation plan. The pop-up also enables the compensation manager to add a new comment.

The Component Tab Comments pop-up can only be accessed from one of the compensation plan component tabs (i.e., Base, Bonus, Equity). To access the pop-up, select the Comments option from the Options drop-down menu that appears to the right of the user photo in the Plan Details table.

The Summary Comments pop-up can only be accessed from the Summary tab or the Read-only/Approval view of the compensation plan. To access the pop-up, select the Comments option from the Options drop-down menu that appears to the right of the user photo in the Plan Details table. Note: The Options drop-down is not available for ineligible employees.

Component Tab Comments Pop-up

The Component Tab Comments pop-up only displays comments that have been added for the corresponding user on the corresponding component tab. The pop-up title indicates the user whose comments are being viewed.

If more than three comments are available, the compensation manager can view all comments by clicking the View # Comments link.

  • To close the pop-up, click Cancel.
