10 Privacy and Personal Data Management

Before entering and storing the personal information of an employee in the system, consent must first be obtained. Consent can be denied, which stops you from entering a new employee record. You can enable or disable the prompt of the consent message. The prompt of the consent message applies for the Enterprise.

The consent notification message for an employee appears in the EMC at the Enterprise level when creating a new employee. If consent is granted, the personal information is entered in the Employee Maintenance module and stored in the application database.

The Audit Trail tracks and logs the user name of whomever is currently logged in (either in the EMC or workstation), and responds to the consent request for employees. Audit Trail contains more information.
