Workday-Pro-Compensation Dumps With Exact Questions and Answers

InWorkday Compensation, step progression is controlled through a combination ofduration(time-based eligibility) andprogression rules(additional conditions, like hours worked or performance).

Here’s how the scenario breaks down:

Requirement 1 – 12 months of employment

Workday supports step duration, where you can specify that an employee must remain at a step for a defined period before being eligible for the next step.

Setting a duration of12 monthsensures that the employee only becomes eligible for a step increase after completing a year in the role.

Requirement 2 – 400 hours worked

Workday allows you to configurestep progression rulesthat evaluate conditions beyond time, such ashours worked, performance ratings, or other calculated fields tied to the worker.

Aprogression rule counting the number of hours workedensures that the pay increase is not triggered until the employee meets the required 400 hours.

Why not the other options?

A. Assign first step during compensation proposal + 12 months rule– This would only apply the first step, but it doesn’t enforce the “400 hours worked” requirement.

B. Hours worked only– This ignores the requirement of12 months of employment.

C. Duration of 12 months only– This ignores the requirement of400 hours worked.

Thus, onlyD(duration + step progression rule) satisfiesboth conditions simultaneously.

References (from Workday Pro Compensation knowledge & learning resources):

Workday Compensation – Step Progression Configuration:Duration enforces time-in-step, while progression rules allow conditions such as hours worked or performance-based eligibility.

Workday Pro Training Materials (Compensation module):Step increase rules require combiningdurationwitheligibility/progression conditionsfor multi-criteria automation.

Workday Community – Compensation Step Progression Guide:Confirms that when multiple criteria must be met (e.g., tenure and hours worked), they must be configured inboth the duration setting and the progression rule logic.

In Workday, when you set anActual End Dateon a compensation plan, the plan remains activethrough that date.

Workday automaticallyremoves the plan the day afterthe entered actual end date.

Example: If Actual End Date = March 31, the plan is removed effectiveApril 1.

Why not the others?

B. Last day of the month +1→ Too restrictive; not always tied to month-end.

C. On the actual end date→ Wrong; the plan is validthroughthe end date.

D. Last day of the pay period +1→ Not relevant; tied to end date, not pay periods.

Guideline warningsin Workday Compensation are configured at theprimary compensation basis pay rangelevel.

These warnings alert HR/Managers if an entered amount isoutside the allowed range or guideline thresholds(e.g., 90%–110% of midpoint).

They act as soft controls for ensuring compliance with comp policy.

Why not the others?

A. Position in range→ This is a calculation, not a configuration point.

B. Compa-ratio→ A metric comparing pay to midpoint; doesn’t hold guideline warnings.

D. Segment range→ Related to segment-based ranges in variable comp, not base pay packages.
