Compensation Task - Compensation Plans Tab
The Compensation Plans tab of a compensation task enables the compensation manager to create a compensation plan. Also, this tab displays all of the compensation manager's compensation plan drafts for the compensation task. If Executive Roll-up is enabled for the compensation task, then the compensation manager can view a subordinate's compensation plan drafts when viewing the subordinate's User Profile Dashboard.
The Compensation Plans tab only displays if one of the following is true:
- The user that is displayed in the User Profile Dashboard is the compensation manager.
- The user that is displayed in the User Profile Dashboard is the compensation manager's co-planner.
- Executive Roll-up is enabled for the task.
To access the Compensation Plans tab of a compensation task, go to Home > Scheduled Tasks. Click the compensation task title. Then, click the Compensation Plans tab.
The Compensation Plans tab is the default tab for the compensation task if the compensation manager or their co-planner does not have subordinate compensation managers (i.e., the Roll-up Summary tab does not appear).
