Manage Pay Grades

Manage Pay Grades

Pay Grades define salary bands and grade levels used with positions.

Common Fields

  • Grade Code - short code if the schema exposes it.
  • Grade Name - required grade label.
  • Grade Level - numeric or ranking value.
  • Minimum Salary - lower band limit.
  • Mid Salary - midpoint if used.
  • Maximum Salary - upper band limit.
  • Description - free text grade description.

Legacy Fields You May Still See

  • Position ID - legacy linkage field in older data models.
  • Base Amount - legacy amount field in older data models.

Workflow

  1. Create grades before assigning employees or editing salary structure overrides.
  2. Use ranges for policy reference even when payroll is driven by pay elements.

Notes

  • Some installations still show legacy fields because the page adapts to the actual schema.
  • Grades cannot be deleted while employees use them.
