Seeking Insight: Salary Planning using Base Salary vs. Compa-Ratio using Total Cash

[vrajhendhran]

Hi Experts @xavierlegarrec ,

Has anyone dealt with a situation where salary planning uses Annualized Base Salary, while Compa-Ratio calculations are based on Total Cash (including Commissions)? 

As per my understanding, for the standard fields (increase fields and CR) to work, we have the option to choose only one of them for both scenarios

To implement this, I'm using the standard method for salary planning, i.e. mapping 'curSalary' to Annualized Base Salary. However, I'm creating custom fields to calculate the Compa-Ratio based on Total Cash

I am hoping to find a standard solution to retain the color coding in the standard Compa-Ratio field

Hi @vrajhendhran 

It's not possible in standard and the way you did it is the only way.

We've had this on our internal SAP Professional Services enhancement wish list shared with the Product team for a few years now. 

I have never heard back from them on this particular item so for now it seems to be a stalemate but stay tuned over the next few years for potential flexibility added there. 

I'm pretty sure there must be an enhancement request on this already, can you check and add your customer vote there ? If you can't find any could you have your customer add one ?

Would appreciate if you can share here the enhancement link if you find an existing one or create a new one so I can share it and get more votes on it.

All the best

Thanks a lot @xavierlegarrec. I will watch out for any updates on this topic.

Below enhancement link was found, but it seems to have lacked the necessary votes to proceed
