Salary Scales Detail {FPRG-1}

This option is used to create salary scales.

A person's salary scale usually consists of one or more “sub-scales”, each comprising a bottom notch, equal increments and a top notch, e.g. 24 000 x 240 = 30 000 or 9 000 x 120 = 12 360 x 150 = 12 660.

The system allows the building of any scale by combining consecutive sub-scales into a so-called “tree”.  A scale may consist of one or more trees, which need not be consecutive, i.e. the top notch of the first tree need not be the same as the bottom notch of the second.  Since the number of sub-scales in a tree may conceivably increase in future, it is recommended that a few scale codes are left unused between trees.

When the user clicks on the scale validation button, the option will validate the salary scales and generate a validation report.  The system will check that the start of a scale, plus a whole number of increments, results in exactly the end of the scale.

Functionality exists to import the salary scales, to eliminate the manual process of capturing them; see {FPRG-16} Import Salary Scales to {FPRG-1}
