In Workday, when multiple configurable compensation bases qualify for an employee, the system determines the primary compensation basis using ranking precedence. The compensation basis with the lowest numerical ranking takes priority, provided the employee meets its eligibility criteria. Unranked compensation bases are only used when no ranked bases apply.

In this scenario, the employee is:

Full-time

Not in sales

Located in Mexico

Based on eligibility:

Total Compensation Non-Sales applies (full-time, non-sales).

Total Pay (Mexico) applies (Mexican employees).

Salary and Seniority applies (all employees).

Among these, Total Compensation Non-Sales has the highest priority because it has the lowest ranking value (20). Although Total Pay (Mexico) is country-specific, its ranking (40) gives it lower precedence. Salary and Seniority is unranked and therefore only applies if no ranked basis qualifies, which is not the case here.

Workday’s compensation basis evaluation logic always selects the highest-ranked (lowest number) qualifying basis as the primary basis for compensation calculations and validations.

Therefore, the correct answer is Total Compensation Non-Sales.
