Workday-Pro-Compensation Dumps with Practice Exam Questions Answers

APeriod Salary Planin Workday supports paying employees more than 12 times per year (e.g., 13 or 14 payments for regions like Italy or Spain).

This allows payroll to spread annual salary across the correct number of pay periods.

Why not the others?

A. Unit salary plan– Pays based on units (like per credit hour for faculty), not extra months.

B. Hourly plan– Pays by worked hours, not relevant to salaried employees.

D. Salary plan– Standard salary plan assumes 12 months and does not support extra 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.

In Workday,eligibility rules are optimized by sequencing broader population filters first, followed by narrower ones.

Here:

Organization = 50 employees

Job family = 5 employees

To ensure performance optimization, the system should firstfilter by organizational membership (50), then applyjob family (5).

This reduces the number of workers Workday needs to evaluate at the second step.

Why not the others?

B. Eligibility sequenced automatically→ Not entirely true; sequencing can be configured for optimization.

C. Remove job family→ Would ignore requirements.

D. Job family precedes organization→ Less efficient, because it would start from 5 but miss optimal evaluation across 50 employees.

When multiplecompensation basesapply to an employee, Workday selects theprimary basisbased onranking (lowest number = highest priority).

Rankings here:

Management = 1

International = 2

Sales = 3

Therefore,Management Compensationis the primary basis.

Why not the others?

B. Sales Compensation→ Ranked lowest (3).

C. International Compensation→ Ranked 2, lower than Management.

D. Total Base Pay→ Not listed among eligible ranked bases here.

The company wants to enterone total compensation amountfor Milan employees instead of entering salary, allowance, and bonus separately.

This is achieved byManage Basis Total, which allows admins to configuretotal comp entryat the worker level while Workday allocates automatically across plans.

This simplifies data entry for regions where comp is communicated as atotal package.

Why not the others?

A. Eligible Earnings Override→ Used for payroll overrides, not comp plan entry.

C. Total Base Pay→ Only includes salary + base pay elements, not full compensation package.

D. Total Salary & Allowances→ Not a standard Workday configuration option; the correct feature isManage Basis Total.
