Specifying a Salary !asis
The salary basis establishes the &uration $or 'hich a salary is +uote&0 such as hourly 7$or

pay rate can ha,e the salary basis ;ourly Salary0 but can ha,e an assi%nment to a 'ee2ly
payroll an& there$ore ha,e a 'ee2ly pay $re+uency.
You can also associate a %ra&e rate 'ith the salary basis. 3racle ;<4S uses the %ra&e rate to
,ali&ate your salary proposals. You recei,e a 'arnin% i$ the salary you enter $or an employee is
