Edit Pay Zones

You can edit the details of pay zones in the Pay Zones tab of HR Admin > Pay Structure.

If you edit the Differential Percentage field of a pay zone, Dayforce checks associated records in the Pay Zone Differentials subtab in the Pay Grades tab of Org Setup > Jobs and Job Assignments. The Pay Zone Differentials subtab is where pay zones are associated with pay grades.

During this check, Dayforce does the following to associated records in the Pay Zone Differentials subtab:

  • If the record is active, Dayforce assigns an effective end date to it and generates a new record with the new percentage in the Differential Type field.
  • If the record is active in the future, the percentage in the Differential Type field of the existing record is updated.
  • If the associated record is active, but the percentage in the Differential Type field was different from the original differential percentage of the pay zone, the record isn’t updated. In this case, Dayforce shows a warning message in the Pay Zones tab of HR Admin > Pay Structure when you save.

To edit a pay zone:

  1. Go to HR Admin > Pay Structure and click the Pay Zones tab.
  2. Select a pay zone from the list to open a slide-out panel containing its details.
  3. Update fields as needed. See Create Pay Zones.
  4. Click Save.
