Managing imported values in the compensation module
In Factorial’s Compensation module, every import generates a new entry for each employee in the side panel. You can import as many files as needed—for example, one for each payroll concept.
Editing imported values:
- Individually: Open the side panel and update the value directly for the selected employee.
- In bulk: Import a delta file containing the changes you want to apply to multiple employees at once.
Deleting imported values:
- Individually: Remove the entry directly from the side panel for each employee.
- In bulk: Re-import the same values as negative amounts. This will generate negative entries, but the final total in the table (the value that is exported) will correctly reflect the deletion.
