4. Select the country from the drop-down list in the **Country** column.
5. Select the job role this range is relevant for from the drop-down list in the **Job Role** column.
6. Select the job grade this range is relevant for from the drop-down list in the **Job Grade** column.
7. Enter the date when this salary range becomes effective into the **Start Date** column.
8. If the salary range has an expiration date, enter it into the **End Date** column.
9. Select the currency for this salary range from the drop-down list in the **Currency** column.
10. Enter the minimal base annual salary for this salary range into the **Minimum Base Annual Salary** column.
11. Enter the midpoint base annual salary for this salary range into the **Midpoint Base Annual Salary** column.
12. Enter the maximum base annual salary for this salary range into the **Maximum** **Base Annual Salary** column.

*Notes**The **Country**, **Start Date**, **Currency**, **Minimum Base Annual Salary**, **Midpoint Base Annual Salary** and **Maximum Base Annual Salary** columns are mandatory.*  
*The **Minimum Annual Base Salary**, **Midpoint Annual Base salary**, and **Maximum Annual Base Salary** column values are synchronized between salary ranges and* [*job grades*](/v1/docs/job-grades)*. So, if you change them in one of these places, the changes will be reflected in both places.*
