Question 37
Your customer uses a look-up table to calculate custom budgets, as shown in the screenshot. The budget is based on an employee's country status. In the template, the country is defined with field ID customCountry the status is defined with field ID customStatus. What is the correct syntax to calculate the adjustment budget?
Correct Answer: A
In SAP SuccessFactors Compensation, using look-up tables in formulas is a common method to calculate budget adjustments based on multiple criteria like an employee's country and status. This question is about selecting the correct syntax for using a look-up table to calculate a custom budget based on these criteria. Let's break down the logic and syntax for why option A is correct. * Look-up Table Functionality in Compensation TemplatesIn SuccessFactors Compensation, look-up tables are used to fetch values dynamically based on specific conditions. The lookup function in SAP allows fetching data from a pre-defined table by matching values from specified columns. * Syntax and Parameters in the Lookup FunctionThe lookup function syntax in SAP SuccessFactors Compensation is generally: plaintext Copy code lookup("<lookupTableName>", <lookupKey1>, <lookupKey2>, <columnIndex>) * <lookupTableName>: Name of the look-up table (in this case, "2018_BudgetPool"). * <lookupKey1> and <lookupKey2>: The fields in the form template used to search in the look-up table. Here, the customCountry and customStatus fields are used to locate the relevant budget value. * <columnIndex>: Specifies the index of the column to retrieve. In this scenario, "1" refers to the budget adjustment percentage in the look-up table. * Correct Formula Explanation * Option A: toNumber(lookup("2018_BudgetPool", customCountry, customStatus, 1)) * curSalary * This option correctly uses the lookup function to locate the appropriate adjustment factor (e. g., 1%) from the 2018_BudgetPool table based on the employee's country (customCountry) and status (customStatus). * The toNumber() function is applied to ensure the fetched value is numeric, allowing it to be used in multiplication. * The formula then multiplies the adjustment factor by the current salary (curSalary) to calculate the adjustment budget. * Why Other Options Are Incorrect * Option B: toNumber(lookup("2018_BudgetPool, customCountry, customStatus, Adjustment)) * curSalary * This option contains syntax errors, such as missing quotation marks around the table name, and "Adjustment" is not a parameter in this lookup. The syntax is incorrect for SuccessFactors' formula setup. * Option C: toNumber(lookup("2018_BudgetPool", customCountry.customStatus, 2)) * curSalary * Incorrect because customCountry.customStatus is treated as a single parameter, which is invalid. Each key (customCountry and customStatus) should be separated by a comma, not a period. * Option D: toNumber(lookup("2018_BudgetPool", customCountry, customStatus, adjustment)) * curSalary * This option misuses "adjustment" as a parameter in the lookup, which is not defined within the context of the table structure. * Additional SAP SuccessFactors Compensation References * SAP SuccessFactors Compensation Guide: Refer to SAP Help Portal's SuccessFactors Compensation Guide for syntax rules of lookup tables. * Lookup Table Configuration: In the configuration, ensure that the look-up table (2018_BudgetPool) is correctly defined with customCountry and customStatus as keys, and that the adjustment percentage is in the correct column (column index 1 in this example). The correct formula, Option A, follows SAP's syntax requirements and functional logic to retrieve the adjustment budget accurately.

Correct Answer: A
Question 39
What is the recommended leading practice workflow for a compensation template?
Correct Answer: A
The recommended workflow for compensation templates ensures structured review and approval, following best practices to ensure accuracy and compliance in compensation decisions. * Recommended Workflow Stages * Process Setup: The Compensation Admin configures the process. * Manager Planning: Line managers make initial compensation recommendations. * Next Level Manager Review: Next-level managers review and adjust recommendations as necessary. * Final Review: HR or Compensation Admin conducts a final review to ensure compliance and data accuracy. * Complete: The process is finalized and completed. * Why Other Options Are Incorrect * Options B, C, and D omit the Final Review or include additional manager levels not typically required, making them less aligned with the standard leading practice. * Reference Documentation * SAP SuccessFactors Compensation Guide on Compensation Cycle Workflow and Template Setup.
