In Workday, compensation entered during the Offer event only carries forward to the Hire event if it is part of the compensation package associated with the job or position. Compensation packages define which plans—such as salary plans, allowance plans, and one-time payment plans—are eligible to flow through staffing events.
If a signing bonus is entered during Offer but not included in the compensation package, Workday treats it as an isolated entry that does not persist into Hire. This behavior is by design to ensure consistency and control over compensation structures.
Security policies, approval steps, and subprocess configuration do not control whether compensation carries forward between Offer and Hire. The determining factor is inclusion in the compensation package.
Therefore, to ensure the signing bonus carries forward, the Signing Bonus one-time payment plan must be included in the compensation package, making option A correct.
