How the System Stores Employee Master History and Turnover

Employee master history includes the history records that the system creates when you change information on the employee entry forms.

To track history and turnover, you must choose the data items (such as home company, tax ID number, and so on) that the system uses to gather data. These data items must exist in the Employee Master table. Whenever you change employee information, the system creates a separate history record for each data item for which you are tracking history.

The history records include:

• The specific change.

• The reason for the change (known as the change reason code).

• The date that the change became effective or the date that the change becomes effective.

• The system date when the change is made.

• The user ID of the person who made the change.

• The program ID that identifies where the change is made.
