How do I set up/add payment grades to employees?

Modified on Tue, 10 Dec at 2:27 PM

Salary (Payment) grades are used by many organizations to help managers manage employees and establish appropriate pay increases for existing employees, while maintaining equity among the jobs in the company. Payment grades provide a structure for compensating employees and managing the payroll.

You can add a Grade and/or Pay Spine against an individual employee's Grade History form.

Important:

If you use the Grade History form, you can only add one grade and one spine point.

To set up

Navigate to the employee's Grade History form.
Go to Cintra iQ: Employment Record> Forms> Grade History.
Right-click: New in the Grade History pane. The Select Grade window appears.
Click the Insert button. The New Record: Grade form appears.
Enter the desired information.
Click the Finish button. The Grade is created in the Select Grade window.
Continue to add a Spine Point to the Grade.

To add payment grades

Navigate to the employee's grade history form.
Go to Cintra iQ: Employment Record> Forms> Grade History. The Grade History form appears.
Right-click: New in the Grade History pane. The Select Grade window appears.
Highlight the desired grade.
Click the Select button. The Insert Employee Grade form appears.
Enter the dates in which the grade is in effect and applied against the employee.

Note:

The To Date can remain blank unless you know in advance of any changes to the Auto Increment/Next Increment Due Date field.
Click the OK button. The record appears in the Grade History pane of the Grade History form.
