Field-based permissions allow specific control over who can view or edit fields in the compensation worksheet.

Restricting Access to Lump Sum Field with Field-Based Permissions

Option C: In SAP SuccessFactors Compensation, you can configure field-based permissions so only selected users (e.g., members of the reward team) can access and edit the Lump Sum field.

This approach uses a permission group to grant edit permissions only to specific individuals, ensuring that only authorized personnel can make entries in the Lump Sum field.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect

Option A (mass actions via Executive Review) does not restrict individual access to fields.

Option B (setting guidelines to zero) does not provide role-based access restriction and may cause confusion in the compensation planning process.

Option D (setting the field to read-only) would prevent all planners from editing, not just those outside the reward team.

In SAP SuccessFactors Compensation, when using formulas with lookup tables, data type consistency is essential for calculations to function correctly. Here’s how the issue can be addressed:

Option B: "Surround the lookup function with the toNumber function."

In this formula, (curSalary lookup("budget_table", customCountry, 1)) / 100, the lookup function is retrieving a value from the table, but the output may not automatically be interpreted as a number. By using toNumber(lookup("budget_table", customCountry, 1)), the retrieved value is converted to a numeric type, preventing the formula from displaying N/A when recalculations occur.

To allow planners to make recommendations outside of the high/low values but only display max and min values on the worksheet:

Option A: "In Display Settings use min-max, Hard Limit: No, High/Low Action: Allow"

Min-max display shows only the minimum and maximum guideline values. Setting Hard Limit to "No" allows planners to make recommendations outside these values, and High/Low Action: Allow enables the flexibility needed by the client.

When a customer uses SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central with specific pay components and a Pay Component Group (PCG) designated for total cash (TC), integration configurations can help manage the pay components based on the planner’s adjustments in the compensation module. Here’s how the setup can be achieved to maximize integration and minimize manual updates:

Option B: "Map TC to the standard Current Salary field. Use the Merit column for the TC update. Publish the finSalary value back to the pay component group in EC and have business rules split the sum into the components."

By mapping the total cash (TC) to the Current Salary field and using the Merit column for any updates, planners can adjust TC directly. The finSalary field can be configured to reflect the adjusted TC, which can then be published back to Employee Central. Business rules in Employee Central will then split the updated TC value among the components (SALARY, CARALLOWANCE, HOUSEALLOWANCE) based on predefined rules, ensuring that allowances remain consistent with the employee’s grade.

To use the Executive Review Offline Edit feature in SAP SuccessFactors Compensation, certain permissions are required for downloading data, making bulk changes offline, and re-uploading those changes.

Executive Review - Export Permission

Option A: This permission allows users to export the compensation data from the Executive Review page to a downloadable format (such as Excel). This is essential for performing offline edits.

Executive Review - Import Permission

Option B: This permission enables users to import or re-upload the edited data back into the system after making bulk changes offline. It’s critical to ensure these changes are successfully integrated into the worksheet.

Executive Review - Edit Permission

Option D: This permission allows users to edit entries within the Executive Review interface. It is necessary for making adjustments to compensation data.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect

Option C (Executive Review - Mass Action permission) is unrelated to offline editing; it pertains to actions like applying mass updates within the online Executive Review.

Option E (Ad Hoc Reports for the Compensation Planning domain) is for reporting rather than permissions directly related to offline editing capabilities.
