Before You Begin: Values in the guideline matrix are entered either as a percentage or a flat amount, depending on your selection in the Guideline Type field. For amount-based guidelines, you should ensure that the entered values are reflective of the Guideline Amount Type selection.
When you select Compa-Ratio in the Criteria section of Compensation Setup > Guidelines, Dayforce shows a table in which you can configure guidelines based on the employee’s compa-ratio. This table includes the Compa-Ratio, Guidelines and Override column. In the Compa-Ratio column, you can define different compensation levels in the guideline based on the employees’ compa-ratio:
In the Compa-Ratio column, you can define different compensation levels based on compa-ratio by entering a value in the Max field and selecting an operator in the corresponding drop-down list. When you enter a value in the Max field, the Min field in the row below gets automatically populated with the same value. This value indicates that the start of that range level is either greater than or equal to, or greater than, the value that you entered (depending on the operator that you selected).
For example, if you enter 20 for the first level and select the less than operator (
), Dayforce automatically populates the first value in the next level as greater than or equal to 20.
In the Guidelines column, enter the guideline values that correspond with each compa-ratio level in the matrix. If you selected Range in the Value Type drop-down list, Dayforce shows the Min and Max fields in each row of the Guidelines column, and you can enter a number in each field to define the guideline range. If you selected Single in the Value Type drop-down list, Dayforce shows a single field in each row of the Guidelines column, and you enter a single number in each field.
