For example, when you click the icon next to the Current Salary value for an hourly employee, Dayforce shows the calculation used to determine their salary based on their hourly rate and annual hours:

If your compensation cycle uses target bonuses, you can click the information icon to view the payout calculations of the target bonus for each employee:
