Incentive in ProTrack Warehouse is a powerful tool used to identify individual employees who are eligible for performance-based incentive pay. Incentive pay is configured by setting up an 'Incentive Plan' and assigning employees to the plan. Once an Incentive Plan is configured and effective, employees will be automatically evaluated as to whether or not they are eligible to receive incentive pay. Refer to Incentive for the approval / disapproval of individual employees on a plan.

To access the Maintain Incentive screen:

  1. Log in to ProTrack Warehouse.
  2. Click the Incentive Config tab under the Maintenance menu. The Maintain Incentive screen appears.

    Indicates that the incentive pay is a monetary incentive.

    Pay Criteria

    Incent on Learning Curve

    Leave the box unchecked to consider an employee's performance in ONLY activities in which they are NOT currently on a learning curve. Any activities that are receiving a learning curve adjustment will not be factored into the performance that triggers incentive. If the box is selected, the plan will consider ALL activities (regardless of whether or not the employee is currently on a learning curve for certain activities). When the box is selected, the 'Performance Level' option is enabled.

    Performance Level

    If the 'Incent on Learning Curve' box is selected, select whether the adjusted performance (for activities on learning curves) or the baseline (non-adjusted) performance will be used to trigger incentive.
