We would like managers to be able to submit, track, and approve compensation adjustments of their employees. This would then, if approved, schedule a pay rate increase in Payroll.

Hi Tracy!
We released Action Items in June, they are as Mark described - custom templates you can build for any workflows you may want.
Here's a link to the release notes!
is there any movement on this?
I am asked about this a lot since we are still on the paper forms as well. Our Supers are in the field and have to make special trips to the office JUST to fill out these forms. They ask everytime about doing it through the Portal.
Hi Evan,
We are thinking about a solution related to this suggestion: https://keystyle.ideas.aha.io/ideas/KDS-I-129
Having forms in HR would allow you to build any templates you want and then use SQL to move any information over to Vista once the forms have been finalized. We won't be able to start the development of this soon, but this is on our roadmap.
Thanks!
Mark, any update on this?
I'll talk to the team about what something like this might take.
Thanks!
Where do you store the information of who someone's supervisor is? Or would this need to be selected?
We could store it in Vista, but it could use the manager field in the Portal and the workflow can be based on Reviewer groups like expenses.
What's up Mark! Let's make this happen sir.
Hi Evan,

Hey Mark!
Our Current workflow is the supervisor gets a wage increase form, fills it out, and sends it to his/her supervisor. That supervisor reviews it and then send its to a higher up (if necessary). If all approve, then the original supervisor sends the form to Payroll to request an increase.
I am thinking something similar to expenses would work perfectly fine, with the ability to state the amount increased (in % or $), a date of execution (when the adjustment should go through), and some notes. Not sure if anything else would be necessary data entry wise, however, I would definitely need to review with our team to get more detail. In terms of display, it would need to show their current pay and maybe date of last raise or a history of raises.
The important part would be to have it then schedule a change to automatically update payroll. This would really tie it all together. Otherwise, it is just a glorified checklist.
Hi Evan,
What are the current workflows for your managers to review and approve these compensation adjustments?
Thanks!
