Administer Bonus Department Allocation
Prior to making bonus recommendations, if you have more than one department reporting to you, the departments must have dollars allocated to it. You can move the dollar amount down to lower level departments or up to higher level departments. It is important to note that this application will adjust your dollar amounts immediately however, this is only in your browser memory. To keep your changes you must click on the Save button to report the changes to the server.
Click on the function you want to perform:
Move dollar amount down to lower level
Move dollar amount up to high
