This guide will show you how to update Job and Pay records based on a spine review.
Contents
Overview
There are two types of spine update:
- Spine rate review: Where the spine rates are updated and applied to Job and Pay records, such as following a cost of living increase (covered in this guide plus the linked guide)
- Spine increments: Where people move up a spine point within an associated Grade (see linked guide for more details)
| ⚠️Important: Where you wish to apply both types of update at the same time, they should be done in the order shown above. |
Introduction
Having applied a review and update to the salary information on a Spine, the review can then be applied to the Job and Pay record for everyone that is paid based on that Spine.
|
Note: A Spine is associated with a Grade, which is how it is attached to employees via their Job and Pay record.
Applying a change in Job and Pay is irreversible so care should be taken to ensure that the data is accurate before you update. |
