- Navigate towards the "Home screen" and click on the "Compensation" module tile under Talent.
- Select the workspace that best suits your preferences or requirements.

- The workbook will appear in a new tab on your browser. Navigate to the worksheet tab labeled ‘Metrics definition’.
- Enter the Unique Object Name and reference code for Metrics Definition you are creating, then add relevant data as per your relevance. After completing data entry across all relevant tab sections, set the processing status to pending.
- Close the workbook and navigate back to ConfigBot. Under the Actions tab for the same iteration number, click the hamburger menu, and select the "Start Configuration" option from the dropdown menu.
- The Start Configuration pop-up window will appear. Enter your Dayforce password and provide any relevant execution notes. Then, select the checkbox for Metrics Definition. Finally, click the "Confirm and Start" button.
- You can later click the information icon to monitor the progress of your iteration.
- Once the status shows "Complete," return to the workbook to verify that the Metrics Definition is created. The corresponding rows and their fields will be highlighted in green, indicating successful execution. Additionally, the Processing Status for particular rows will be changed to "Processed”.
- Navigate to your Dayforce instance to confirm the changes. Under Metrics Definition, you’ll see the newly created Metrics Definition “CSR”.
This confirms a successful execution where a new Metrics Definition was create in Compensation module using ConfigBot, ensuring accurate data transfer and configuration within Dayforce.
