Typically, a newly created Employee record has blank User ID and Contact record
To add this information, complete the following steps:
- Go to HR Main Menu> Employee, and open the Employee record
- Click the Employee record Extended Menu > Create / Update User ID and Contact. Note: this process will not function if you have not entered a Branch and Department on the Employee record.
- In the pop up window that appears, type a new USER ID, or leave blank to use the “default” and the system will create a USER ID for you.
- The following records are automatically generated and linked to the Employee record:
- A Contact record with the Employee’s Name and Title
- A User ID record with the Employee’s Name, Title, Company Number, Branch, Department, and link to the other newly created Contact record
-
- Recommended: Your System Administrator is expected to further define this new User ID’s permissions
-
For any future changes required for an Employee such as Title, Branch, or Department, complete the following steps:
- Go to HR > Employee, and open the Employee record
- In Edit mode, make the necessary changes to the record
- Click the Extended Menu > Create / Update User ID and Contact. The changes made are automatically synchronized with the linked User ID and Contact records
