When configuring a Workforce Management Pay Code in PeopleXD, it is recommended to copy an existing similar Pay Code to ensure consistency and reduce configuration errors. Default system Pay Codes can be used as a baseline and customised to meet organisational requirements. This guide outlines the standard configuration for an Absence Pay Code and explains the recommended settings for each tab.

When you create a new WFM Pay Code, copy an existing similar Pay Code. This ensures a consistent setup and reduces the risk of errors.
Default configuration
When your system is initially set up, it usually includes a set of default Pay Codes with standard configurations. These serve as a baseline for each Pay Code type, which you can further customise to meet your organisation's needs.
