The Cost Management / Current Hike bulk update allows users to apply salary adjustments across multiple contracts simultaneously.
This feature is typically used for:
- Salary reviews
- Annual increases
- Cost-of-living adjustments
- Market alignment corrections
Instead of updating each contract individually, users can define a group of contracts and apply consistent changes in a controlled and traceable way.

Process Overview
The bulk update process follows three main steps:
- Filters – Select the contracts to update
- Expression – Define the new values
- Review – Validate changes before applying
Step 1: Filters
In this step, you define which contracts will be affected by the update.
Available Filters
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Companies | Defines the organizational scope (can be tenant-wide) |
| Statuses | Filter contracts by status (e.g., Active, Future) |
| Managers | Select contracts by reporting manager |
| People | Select specific employees |
| Departments / Areas / Functions | Filter by organizational structure |
| Categories | Filter by contract classification |
| Start Date / Renewal Date / End Date | Filter based on contract timelines |
| Include External Employees | Includes non-permanent workers |
| Include Deleted | Includes inactive/deleted records |
💡 Use filters carefully to ensure only the intended contracts are selected.
Click Next to proceed.
Step 2: Expression
In this step, users define how the salary values will be updated.
Although the exact configuration options may vary, this step typically allows you to:
-
Define new salary values
-
Apply increases based on rules (e.g., fixed or calculated adjustments)
💡 This is the logic layer where the system determines how current values will change.
Click Next to proceed.
Step 3: Review
The Review step displays all impacted contracts and the calculated changes.
Key Elements
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Employee ID | Unique identifier of the employee |
| Company | Associated company |
| Person | Employee name |
| Monthly Base | Displays value change (old → new) |
Value Representation
-
The current value is shown (often crossed or highlighted)
-
The new value is displayed next to it
Example:
2,500 EUR → 3,000 EUR
💡 This comparison allows users to validate the impact before applying changes.
Applying the Update
After reviewing the changes, click Apply.
A confirmation message will appear:
“You are about to update the Current Hike Monthly Base for X contracts. Are you sure you want to proceed?”
Click Yes to confirm.
Key Considerations
-
Changes are applied to all selected contracts simultaneously
-
Salary updates may impact:
- Payroll calculations
- Financial reporting
- Cost allocation
⚠️ These updates are not easily reversible—always validate before applying.
Best Practices
- Use precise filters to avoid unintended updates
- Carefully review all calculated changes
- Apply updates in smaller groups when possible
- Coordinate with Finance/HR before executing mass salary changes
Summary
The Cost Management / Current Hike bulk update provides a powerful way to manage salary changes at scale while maintaining control, visibility, and consistency across contracts.
