Your client wants to restrict entry into the Lump Sum field to only members of...

Field-based permissions allow specific control over who can view or edit fields in the compensation worksheet.

Restricting Access to Lump Sum Field with Field-Based Permissions

Option C: In SAP SuccessFactors Compensation, you can configure field-based permissions so only selected users (e.g., members of the reward team) can access and edit the Lump Sum field.

This approach uses a permission group to grant edit permissions only to specific individuals, ensuring that only authorized personnel can make entries in the Lump Sum field.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect

Option A (mass actions via Executive Review) does not restrict individual access to fields.

Option B (setting guidelines to zero) does not provide role-based access restriction and may cause confusion in the compensation planning process.

Option D (setting the field to read-only) would prevent all planners from editing, not just those outside the reward team.
