The following article will help to explain how you can add or update a “Configurable Compensation Basis” in Workday through Configbot.



  1. Enter your Username and Password and click on the submit button to login.  




  1. Navigate towards the "Home screen" and click on the " Talent Panel" and then Click on Compensation Module. 




  1. Select the workspace that best suits your preferences or requirement 




  1.  Navigate to the generated workbook (in my case, Iteration #1) and open the workbook. 




  1. Navigate to the worksheet tab labeled as “Configurable Compensation Basis”. 



  1. Provide the “Name”, add “Description” & “Eligibility Rule”, then select “Yes or No” for Inactive and add remaining information appropriately, then select the processing status as “Pending”. 




  1. Close the Workbook, navigate back to your workspace, click on the hamburger menu and select start configuration option. 




  1. The Start Configuration pop-up window will appear. Enter your Workday password and provide any relevant execution notes. Then, select the checkbox for the “Configurable Compensation Basis”. Finally, click the "Confirm and Start" button.




  1. You can track the progress of iteration by clicking on Information Icon (i). 




  1. Once the status shows "Complete," then return to the workbook to confirm that the data was successfully added. The following rows and their fields will be highlighted in green, indicating successful execution. Additionally, the Processing Status will be changed to Processed. 






  1. To confirm the changes made, navigate to the “Configurable Compensation Basis” window by searching for it by name using the search bar on the Workday Home page. 



This confirms a successful execution where a new “Configurable Compensation Basis” was added to the Compensation Module using ConfigBot, ensuring accurate data transfer and configuration within Workday.
