* In this case, pilots earn extra based onkilometers flown, makingunit salary planthe correct choice.

When configuring asalary plan, you can choose whether the plan amount should automatically adjust for part- time employees based onFTE% (Full-Time Equivalent percentage).
* Apply FTE%ensures that the salary plan prorates according to scheduled hours vs. full-time hours.
* Example: If an employee works 50% FTE, a $60,000 annual salary plan will automatically adjust to
$30,000.
Why not the others?
* B. Compensation Element- Elements link plans to payroll but do not control proration.
* C. Eligibility Rules- Define who is eligible, not how amounts are prorated.
* D. Exclude from Merit- Used in merit review processes, unrelated to proration.

Workday Pro Compensation Training:Salary plans have a checkbox "Apply FTE%" to prorate salaries based on work schedule.
Workday Community - Salary Plan Configuration:Confirms FTE% is the method for automatic proration.

* Aconfigurable compensation basisallows you to definewhat plans contribute to compensation calculations.
* For the sales team, the basis should include:
* Base salary (salary plan).
* Monthly commission earnings (commission plan).
* Quarterly bonus plan (bonus plan).
* Configurable compensation bases are designed for flexible aggregation of multiple comp plans.
Why not the others?
* B. Total salary and allowances basis# Covers only salary + allowance, does not include bonus
/commission.
* C. Compensation grade# Defines ranges, not aggregation of comp plans.
* D. Calculation compensation basis# Not a Workday configuration type (confusion with calculated fields).

Why not the others?
* A. Unit-based allowance plan# Used when pay is based on number of units (e.g., kilometers, credits), not flat amounts.
* B. Percent-based allowance plan# Tied to % of base pay, not a fixed dollar figure.
* D. Reimbursable allowance plan# Used for expense reimbursements, not recurring flat compensation.

Why not the others?

* C. On the actual end date# Wrong; the plan is validthroughthe end date.
* D. Last day of the pay period +1# Not relevant; tied to end date, not pay periods.
