You can create as many additional salary components, as you require. However, only ten components can be displayed in the Salary Management folder. If you want your new components to be displayed in the folder instead of the default components, you must update a view.

   To create new salary components to display in the folder:

1. Query the Lookup Type PROPOSAL_REASON in the Lookups window and add a new code for each new component.

2. Open the View file peupl01v.sql in a text editor.

3. Go to the component reason list and replace the default Lookups with the new codes you have created.

   Note: There are two places in the file where you need to change these codes.

4. Go into SQL*Plus as hr user and run the edited script.

5. Change the column names in the Salary Management folder by choosing Change Prompts from the Folder menu.
