Because the settings on this page are critical to the proper operation of Benefits Administration and Payroll for North America, PeopleCode handles most of the data manipulation in the database.

Use the forward and reverse buttons to navigate through the different effective dates for which changes to the primary jobs data have occurred. Add a new row to change the primary job designation. When you save the page, PeopleCode turns off the primary job designation of the previously designated job and ensures that all of the rules for data integrity are maintained.
