Human Resources People Management

PART 2 EMPLOYEE MAINTENANCE

You can use descriptions or codes to identify the division, department,

position, location and supervisor fields by setting user preferences. For

more information, refer to Setting up Human Resources user preferences in

Chapter 3, “Human Resources Preferences,” in the Human Resources

Installation and Setup manual.

To create an employee record:

1. Open the Employee Maintenance window.
   (Cards >> Human Resources >> Employee >> Employee)


2. Enter an employee ID.

To ensure information on reports will be printed in the correct order, be

sure that each employee ID has the same number of characters. The

characters are sorted from left to right, and numbers take priority over

letters.

If you don’t use the same number of characters for employees IDs, the

numbering system won’t be consistent and your employee IDs may not

be listed in the order you intended.

3. Enter or select a class ID to assign this employee to a class and choose
   the note button to store additional information about the employee. For
   more information about setting up employee classes, refer to Creating
   an employee class in the Payroll manual.
