Bulk Updating Salaries and Time Off Allowances

There are occasions where time off allowances and salaries need to be updated across the company. To achieve this, a Bulk Update can be performed by going to:

 Administration > HR > Bulk Update

• What would you like to update? - Salary or Time off allowances?
• What would you like to do?:
  • Choose Increase or Decrease;
  • Enter the number you want to increase or decrease by;
  • Choose Units or Percentage.
• Create history record for changes:
  • If 'Yes', the system will create history records for changed time off allowance and salary records.
  • If 'No', the history records are not required.
  • If this option is turned off, there is no way to add these records later.
• Selection Method:
  • If selected 'Employees', you can select the "All employees" check box if you want the change to affect all employees. Leave this un-ticked to manually select one or more employees from the drop-down list.
  • If selected 'Metadata', you can update all or some Job roles, Departments, Managers, Sites, Companies, Cost centres, Business Units, and/or Headcount classifications.

When you click on 'Submit', you will then be asked again if this is OK to action. This is because the Bulk update overwrites LIVE data in the employee file.

Please Note - Once this change has been submitted, this cannot be undone.

In the example below, only one employee has been selected for a salary increase so as an alternative, you could carry out this update by going to:

People -> Employees

Update the salary or time off allowance by clicking on the 'Benefits' action and then scrolling down the page until you find those fields which can then be updated directly.

Please Note - This uploader rounds updated salaries to two decimal places.
