Compensation gives your employees insight into their pay, complete with an interactive summary and detailed breakdown of their pay, deductions and benefits.
Past pays in Avanti are available for employees to review, except for cancelled pays. Employees can conveniently access their pay statements in PDF format by simply selecting PDF.

Get Familiar with Compensation
Employees can review their pay period information, and the year-to-date amounts up to payday.
Compensation is divided into two categories, Take Home Pay and Benefits.
Take Home Pay
Cash Compensation
This details all the employee’s earnings with a year-to-date amount that is included on the breakdown, unless there are no earnings during the pay period and Suppress statement printing when earning amt = 0 is selected on the earning code.
Deducted from pay
All deductions with a year-to-date amount display in Compensation.
Benefits
Taxable Benefits
Displays all benefits which result in additional taxes with a year-to-date and don’t have Suppress printing benefit on statement selected on the Deduction/Benefit Code.
Non-Taxable Benefits
Includes all remaining benefits with a year-to-date that don’t have Suppress printing benefit on statement selected on the Deduction/Benefit Code.
Employees can also view a PDF of their pay statement from Compensation, which they can save or print for their records. The PDF is the same as the statement displayed in Payment Inquiry on the Avanti Desktop.
Compensation Security
The PDF with all the pay information can be password protected for additional security. Check out the Compensation Setup Guide for more information.
You may set up Compensation so employees can email themselves a PDF copy of their pay information. The email goes to their pay statements email. If the employee doesn’t have a pay statements email set, it gets sent to their primary email address. Go to Compensation Setup Guide for more information on enabling email.
The emailed PDF will always be password protected.
If the employee has a statement password, it’ll be used to password-protect the emailed file.
If the employee doesn’t have a statement password, it’s protected using the Default Email Statement Password Mask. You can update this from the Avanti Desktop on the Basic tab in Payroll Parameters.
Who can view Compensation?
Employees can only see their own pay information in the Compensation tab. Managers and Regular Users cannot view other employees’ pay information here.
Compensation doesn’t display if there’s no employee attached to the user or if the employee doesn’t have Enable Web Services selected on the Personal tab of the Employee Profile.
If you want managers and regular users to access employees’ pay information, you can enable Pay Statements. Employees won’t have access to Pay Statements if Compensation is set up.
Which Pays Display?
You decide which pays to display by setting the initial pay date. All past pays after this date displays in Compensation, except for cancelled pays.
Ready to Get Started?
Compensation replaces Pay Statements, so Pay Statements can’t be accessed from the ASSP once Compensation is set up.
