Mass compensation change without import ?

Can we mass update compensation field

Pay group

by updating a job information field ?

for example, i create a cross-entity business rule if comment field = paygroup_UPDATE

in job info

Then

Set

Compensation payroll-group= XYZ

that is attached to comment field in job info

then i do a mass change to the people i need by updating comment with

paygroup_UPDATE

Is there some chance the update of comp info will happen ?
