Employee administration is one of the most powerful tools Labor Management offers. In this area of the User Interface (UI), you can maintain all human resource information pertaining to employees on an enterprise level. Availability to users is determined by specifying user roles (for example, Sys Admin, Store Manager, and so on). Human Resources maintains vital data about each employee and defines individual tax, wage or salary, performance, related skill levels, and scheduling availability information.
Typically, configuring employees is a standard task carried out whenever a new employee is hired. It can also be used for updating existing employees. It is important that all users of this user interface are properly trained. It is generally carried out at the store level; however, higher level users have the ability to access employee information and make modifications as necessary. Because if its nature, store managers and other users with similar privilege levels should be able to enter and configure employees as they are hired or terminated, as well as if changes in any of their personal information were to take place. For example, an employee who recently marries should not have to contact the system administrator for a change in their exemption status. It seems more likely that these types of changes would be handled within the store.
Human resource information is used by and affected by settings configured in other sections of Labor Management. For example, the pay rate for an employee’s position, although assigned to the employee in Employee Administration, is configured elsewhere in Labor Management. Likewise, banking institutions, employee privileges, and so on are all created and defined elsewhere.
