Update Employee Earning - Paycor Data Target

Overview

DataBlend supports updating existing recurring earnings on employee records in Paycor using the Update Employee Earning data target action. This action modifies an existing earning entry identified by the employee and earning GUID. Rows sharing the same EmployeeId, Id, and Code are treated as one earning with one amount entry per row.
