Generating Compensation Reports

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to define the various Compensation reports.

Introduction

Compensation reports are readily available to provide summarized information on various data. Compensation reports include:

  • Rollup Report
  • Compensation Aggregate Export
  • Live Metrics
  • Executive Review
  • Ad hoc Reports
  • Custom Reports

Compensation Reports

  • Compensation Rollup Report: Selecting the Reports tab within a compensation plan displays the aggregate total values of all users in the hierarchy below the user in view. Drill-down capabilities allow for viewing forms in the hierarchy. This report is exportable as an Excel workbook.
  • Compensation Aggregate Export: This report can be exported via Admin CenterCompensation Home and shows the total compensation planning data for everyone involved in a compensation planning process.

  • Live Metrics: Displays live charts on standard measurements directly within a form or Executive Review.
  • Executive Review: Those with Executive Review permission can view compensation data for employees in the hierarchy below themselves according to selections set by that user’s choice of filters.
  • Ad hoc Reports: These can be created and/or generated by users with the appropriate permissions through the Analytics/Reporting section of SAP SuccessFactors.
  • Custom Reports: The above listed standard reports are available for all compensation implementations. If your organization wants to develop additional custom reports, you should inform your sales account manager and/or implementation consultant. Custom report development adds complexity, scope, and cost to your implementation. To meet your organization’s Go Live date, you should start scoping custom report requirements as soon as possible.

Summary

  • A common use of the Ad Hoc report or Executive Review export function is to extract data from the system for import into external HRIS systems
