Map your job titles

Compensation

Updated over 2 months ago

Once your Job Levels and Job Tracks are configured in Workleap Compensation, you must map each Job Title to the following:

  • Job Function

  • Job Level

  • Job Track

To get started, go to Configuration in the navigation menu and click the Job Mapping tab.

Caution: Any Job Titles that still need to be mapped will show a warning icon and appear highlighted in yellow.

Bulk job mapping

Step 1: Export the job mapping template

Click the Actions dropdown in the top right, then select Export Job Mappings. This will generate a spreadsheet pre-populated with synced HRIS data (e.g., Job Title, Department).

Step 2: Complete the mapping template

Open the downloaded file in your preferred spreadsheet editor. Fill in the following columns:

  • Job Function

  • Job Track

  • Job Level

When done, save the file as a CSV or Excel format.

Step 3: Import your completed file

Click Actions, then select Import Job Mappings. Drag and drop your file into the import window or select it manually.

Caution: If any required columns are not auto-mapped, you’ll be prompted to manually match them before proceeding.

Step 4: Review and validate your data

Use the built-in data editor to check the imported information.

Tip: Use the Rows with issues tab to view rows that contain errors. Click any error icon in a column heading to filter by specific issues.

Step 5: Finalize the import

  • Optional: Click Export at the bottom to save a version of the file with all issues highlighted.

  • When ready, click the blue Import button to complete the process.

Caution: Use the Clean rows tab to view all entries that are ready for import. Clean rows and non-error rows will be imported together.
