The "Run Eligibility Rules when there is Requisition Compensation" setting in Edit Tenant Setup - HCM is specifically designed to address this scenario. When enabled, it instructs Workday to execute compensation eligibility rules during the Offer and Hire business processes, even if default compensation plans are already populated from the job requisition. This ensures that any changes to eligibility-driving criteria for the candidate, such as a change in location, will trigger a re-evaluation, resulting in the correct compensation package being proposed on the offer.

B. Select the Enable Defaulting Based on Changes to Guidelines setting in Edit Tenant Setup - HCM.

This setting controls whether compensation amounts default based on guideline changes, not whether eligibility rules for the plans themselves are executed.

C. Edit the Offer business process security policy.

Business process security policies govern user permissions (who can initiate, approve, view, etc.), not the underlying business logic of compensation calculations.

D. Select the Enable Eligibility Rule Performance Enhancement for Compensation Plan Profiles setting in Edit Tenant Setup - HCM.

This is a performance optimization setting that alters how rules are processed for speed; it does not control the fundamental logic of when to run eligibility rules.
