Non-Scheduled Class Increases
Use this option to set up salary increases for either the current year or budget year for job classes that do not use salary schedules. The increases, which are stored in Personnel Budgeting's Non-Scheduled Class Increases table, can be based on percentages, amounts, or a combination of the two. When you run the Salary and Fringe Calculation option, the system references the table and applies the increases it contains.
To increase salaries for employees whose job classes use salary schedules, run the Auto-Step Employees option instead. For details, refer to Auto-Step Employees.

Calculating Increases for NonScheduled Job Classes
Rates for employees and vacant positions with non-scheduled job classes use the following pay methods:
H - Hourly
D - Daily
P - Pay Period
In determining the budgeted annual salary, the system applies increases to pay rates for pay methods H and D and to annual salaries for pay method P.
When a new budgeted salary is generated in the Salary and Fringe Calculation option, employees' increases default to their Pay Rate Information pages.
- For employees receiving fullyear increases, the amounts are stored in the rate page's Increase B fields.
- For those receiving mid-year increases, the amounts are stored as Increase A if the increases occur on or before employees' anniversary dates and as Increase B if the increases fall after the anniversaries.
If more than one increase record applies, the records are processed in order of effective date. For example, to set up a 1% increase for the current salary, a 3% increase for the full budget year, and a 2% mid-year increase, the entries for each record would be:
Class | C/B* | Effective Date | Increase % | Increase Amount |
4000 | C | 05/01/2018 | 0.0100 | 0.00 |
4000 | B | 07/01/2018 | 0.0300 | 0.00 |
4000 | B | 01/01/2019 | 0.0200 | 0.00 |
|
The Salary and Fringe Calculation option calculates the increases in this order:
- The current year increase is used to calculate the new salary in the employee's Pay Rate Information page's Base Salary field.
- The full budget year increase is calculated on the new base salary.
- The mid-year budget increase is calculated on the budgeted salary.
The new base salary includes all current year increases, except for special pays.
