Define Employee Assumptions

Key business drivers in the applications are managed in the Scenario, Employee, and CSC assumptions grids accessed via the Report Menu on the main application toolbar. These assumptions are typically applied to the data entry values created in Salary and Non Salary planning grids.  The resulting calculations are only visible in the Employee Projections and overall Consolidated budget grids.

Scenario Assumptions

This reporting grid holds the corporate agreed upon assumptions for overhead rates, benefit rates, salary increases which are used to drive calculations into the budgets you create.  Below is a list of those assumptions:

Assumptions that cannot be overridden:

• Overhead rates
• Benefit rates

Assumptions that can be overridden:

•  Worktime % - global – see Employee Assumptions – Override Global Assumption for Worktime %
•  Salary Increase % - Global – see Override Scenario Assumption for Salary Increase

NOTE: Since scenario assumptions impact all users and all data in the planning model scenarios, only a small set of users has the authority to change scenario assumptions. 

Employee Assumptions

The Employee Assumptions tab is a data entry grid where users can:

1. Plan individual or a subset of employee worktime %:  Override an employee's or group of employees' work time % as defined in the Scenario Assumptions tab.

2. Plan employee assignment-driven CSC charges:  Define an employee's CSC division for a period of time to plan CSC charges.
