What is Pays Setup and What is the Purpose of It

The Configuration Task definition typically defines how all compensation items will be calculated (calculation basis). Typically, it is set to Equal Monthly. You can access the Define Workforce Planning Budgeting Criteria Configuration task by navigating to Maintenance > Admin > Configuration Task.

However, Pays Setup acts as an exception to the Configuration Task definition for salary calculation basis. It may be needed when you have specific compensation items where employees gets paid based on a different calculation basis.
