- Rates-Based Salary Basis Type Introduction
You can now maintain a person’s salary using the new rates-based salary basis type, built on the Oracle Fusion Cloud Global Payroll rates engine.
- Architecture for a Rates-Based Salary Basis
The new salary basis type lets you maintain individual rate components, which can have their own characteristics, such as periodicity and currency.
- Element rates can accept factors or amounts that are either user-entered or fixed.
Progression grade ladder-based rate definitions derive their rate value from grade or step rates defined in the progression grade ladders.
Derived rates are calculated by adding or subtracting other rates, or multiplying other rates by a factor.
Value by criteria rates can identify rate values based on criteria.
- Rates-Based Salary Basis Type That Uses Various Categories of Rate Definitions
The sequence column determines the order that the component appears on change salary pages.
Here’s a simple example of salary details for someone with a salary basis that uses rates.
- Basic salary, enterable
- Housing allowance calculated as 50% of the basic salary
- Grade based allowance calculated as $100 for IC1, $200 for IC2 and $10 for other grades
- Overall salary calculated as the sum of the preceding components

IMPORTANT Actions and Considerations for Compensation
REPLACED OR REMOVED FEATURES
From time to time, Oracle replaces existing Cloud service features with new features or removes existing features. When a feature is replaced the older version may be removed immediately or at a future time. As a best practice, you should use the newer version of a replaced feature as soon as the newer version is available.
