You can calculate compensation for all resources who have valid compensation plans, for all resources in the notify log file, or for resources you specify. The Calculation Requests page displays a summary of all of the calculations that you have submitted.
You can click the link in the Batch Name column or use the search parameters at the top to narrow your search to selected batch names. Or, click Calculate Compensation to create a new calculation submission.
You can click View Log to view the log messages generated during a given calculation run. You can navigate to the View Notification Log page to view the changes that have been made to the Oracle Incentive Compensation system that Incremental Calculation uses to speed up the calculation process.
It is recommended that you run calculation for all resources if you are running Complete Calculation. If you are running Incremental Calculation, you should specify For All Resources in Notify Log. This ensures that all dependencies among resources are handled automatically by the application. If you intend to run calculation for a small number of resources and want to specify the resources, be sure to include all resources having dependencies among them in your calculation submission. You can check the Include Hierarchy box to include resources below a specific resource.
The Request ID is stored as a column and a search parameter for any calculation request that is submitted concurrently. The Request ID is not recorded for calculation requests that are submitted as an online process.
Calculation can be run as often as necessary.
You can select commission calculation or bonus calculation. See Two Types of Calculation, page 6-1.
In the procedure below, to create a new batch, start at step 1. To use a previously defined batch, click the link in the Batch Name column and begin at step 8.

Compensation Manager > Calculate Compensation
Prerequisites
❒
Transactions must already be collected and loaded.Steps:
1. Click Calculate Compensation.
2. Enter a name in the Name field.
3. Select the beginning and end dates of the transactions to be calculated.
4. Select the type of calculation to be submitted, either Commission or Bonus. At this stage, the calculation status is Incomplete.
5. For Bonus calculation, select an interval type.
Bonus calculation often uses a different interval than Commission calculation. For
example, a bonus can be paid once a year while commission is calculated monthly.
Therefore, you must select one of the seeded interval types: Period, Quarter, or Year. Commission calculation can use any interval types as defined separately by the Incentive Compensation Administrator using the Compensation Workbench.
6. Check the Incremental Calculation box if you want to run incremental calculation to process the pending changes made to the system.
7. Select one of two resource options. These options change depending on whether the Incremental Calculation box is checked or not. If the box is unchecked, these options appear:
• All Resources: Calculates compensation for everyone
• Specific Resources: Enables calculation of compensation only for resources you choose.
If the Incremental Calculation box is checked, these two resource options appear:
• Resources in Notify Log: Calculates compensation for resources affected by recent changes to their compensation setup or newly loaded transactions, as recorded in the Notify Log.
• Specific Resources
The following steps apply to batches that you have just created or previously created batches. For previously created batches, it is assumed that you have run a search for the batch.
8. Select a calculation method.
• Run Calculation: Runs online, and is best for small jobs.
• Schedule Calculation: Sets up a concurrent request, and is best for big jobs that can run in the background. See Restrictions for more information.
9. The process changes depending on a number of factors:
1. If you selected All Resources or Resources in Notify Log in the Resource Option field previously, and you selected Commission type, calculation runs if you click Run Calculation, or you are sent to the scheduling procedure if you selected Schedule Calculation.
2. For bonus calculation only, select the bonus plan elements that you want to use from the drop-down list. This finer granularity of choice for bonus calculation enables you to calculate bonus plan elements individually. After you select the bonus plan elements, click Run Calculation or Schedule Calculation
3. If you selected Specific Resources you must enter the specific resources for whom you want to submit a calculation.
10. To enter specific resources for calculation:
1. Click Add Resources.
2. Select a resource from the list of values. Create more blank rows as needed.
3. Check the Include Hierarchy box if you want to run calculations for the resource and all of that resource's subordinates.
4. When you have finished entering names, run or schedule the calculation.
11. If you are scheduling calculation, proceed through the six-step procedure. Click Next between steps, and after you have reviewed the submission, click Submit.
12. If calculation was successful, the Status field now displays Completed.
To verify that the calculation was processed correctly, you can go to the Year to Date Summary for the corresponding fiscal year. Search for the resource name and select the correct fiscal year.
13. After the calculation batch Information page displays, click OK to return to the Requests page.
14. Click the Details icon to see more information, including Diagnostics.
Restrictions
The Status field displays the status of the calculation using these values:
• Incomplete: The calculation has not been submitted.
• Complete: The calculation has completed successfully.
• Failed: An error has occurred. You can run the calculation again, if necessary.
• In progress: The calculation is still in the process of running.
Transactions with process dates that fall within the dates you specify are included in the calculation.
If you have made a change that affects the calculation, for example, to a rate table, then the application lists in the Notify Log all resources and periods that are affected by the change. Select Resources in Notify Log to calculate all the resources affected by the changes made.
You can use parameters to determine for whom calculation is performed:
• Schedule Calculation: If the calculation is large, select this option to run the
calculation as a background process in the Concurrent Manager. After you submit a concurrent process, you can proceed to do other things while it completes the calculation. You may want to make a note of the concurrent request ID number in case you want to check the status of the process later on. If a batch runner fails during concurrent calculation, the application automatically cancels other running and pending batch runners. If you deselect this option, then calculation is
performed online.
• Incremental Calculation: Use Incremental Calculation for most or all of your calculations. This option calculates only newly added transactions and transactions that are affected by the new transactions. This option also calculates the
compensation for resources who are affected by events that happened since the previous calculation.
