Compensation elements, where you select which compensation types to include. The drop-down lists all elements loaded into the Data Foundation. You must enable at least one element by checking a relevant box in the list. Your chosen elements will then appear as removable tags, each adding a per-element configuration sub-section.

Click the Save & exit button located in the top-right corner of the page to finish making your changes or proceed and save later.

In this Side panel subsection, you can define the Pay information widget for workers’ digital reward statements using the following settings:

Pay information description, where you add a rich-text description to provide workers with context.
Country-based eligibility, where you select one or more countries by checking relevant boxes in the drop-down list. Only workers whose work country matches a selected country will see the widget. Country values are populated dynamically from the Data Foundation.
Request submission mode, where you choose how workers submit pay information requests:
Button only (one-click request with no additional input from workers)
Dropdown reasons (workers select from a configurable list of predefined reasons). For this mode, define the drop-down options available to workers. Default options include Pay level comparison by gender, Pay band and grade information, Criteria used for pay decisions, and General pay transparency inquiry. You can add options by clicking +Add reason, reorder them via drag-and-drop, and delete them using the X icon next to each field.
Free text (workers provide a free-text description of their request)

If you want, you can also provide resources in the digital reward statement page. In the List of resources, add a Label and a Link.

To save your changes, click the Save & exit button located in the top-right corner of the page. To discard them, click Cancel.
Managing translations for the digital reward statement
The digital reward statement also supports granular localization, so you can deliver translated compensation content to workers based on their preferred language.
To do so, go to the Settings section in the configuration form, as illustrated in the picture below:
Settings in the digital reward statement
This section specifies the number of languages used in the statement and lets you configure translations as follows:
Click Manage translations. The following drawer will slide from the right side of the screen:
Manage translations drawer
In the drawer, click the Add translation button.
In the Language pop-up window that will appear, select the target language from the drop-down list and click Add.
Your newly added language is now displayed on the left in the Manage translations drawer, with English (United States) as the default language.
You can type your translations in Section header, Section description, and Dropdown options fields for the widgets, such as Pay information or Compensation history. Any element left without a translation automatically displays in the default language. This means that you can translate only the elements that matter without disrupting the rest of the statement.
Click the Save button located in the bottom-right corner of the drawer to save your changes. To discard them, click Cancel.
When workers update their language setting in the application, all translated widgets render in the selected language.
