You are the Director of XYZ Company. Identify three standard functionalities available to you through Compensation Workbench Budgeting.
Answer : A,B,D
Explanation: Explanation -
Budgeting in Compensation Workbench
Compensation Workbench provides two general styles of budgeting:
* Automatic Budgeting: use this type of budget if you predetermine budgets prior to giving managers access. For example, you enter a budget of 7.5% for all managers in the west, and 10% for all managers in the east. Auto-issuing budgets gives the compensation professional control over the amount a manager can allocate to reporting employees and creates a uniform compensation distribution across the enterprise. You can set up variable rate profiles to vary the flat percentage or amount based on a variety of eligibility criteria such as location.
* Roll-Down Budgeting: use this type of budget if you predetermine the initial budget only, and line managers complete the budgeting task. As a compensation administrator, you publish the initial budget with the highest-level manager, or with multiple lower managers.
Managers roll the budgets down the hierarchy by distributing the budget. Managers decide the level to which they want the budget to trickle down by selecting the budgeting method on the Budget Task.

Company XYZ has two business groups. An HR super user would like to create the jobs in one business group and be able to view them in the Job Definition form (Navigation: Work
Structures > Job > Description) in the other business group. The user should also be able to assign the job to an employee in the other business group. How can this be done assuming the HR: Cross Business Group profile option is set to Yes?
Answer : C
Explanation: In order to map jobs from one job group to another, a master job group must be defined.

In Single Business Group Access mode, you can have one master job group for each business group and you can map jobs only within the same business group. In Cross Business Group Access mode, there is only one master job group, and you can map jobs across business groups
