Personal Information Data for People with Organizational Relationships
The system requires the same personal information regardless of a person's organizational relationship, so all people with an organizational relationship are added to the system using the Personal Data components (PERSONAL_DATA or PERSONAL_DATA_FL). This enables you to simplify data entry and maintenance and to use a single, unique identification code for people as you add new organizational instances for them or as their relationships to the organization change.
The generic classic Add a Person component is on the Administer Workforce menu and the fluid Add Person tile is on the Manage Human Resources dashboard, but there are additional components on the menus of other applications enabling you to create records for people of interest specifically for that application. For example, you can add PeopleSoft Global Payroll payees on the Add a POI Payee component (PERSONAL_DATA) on the menu.
Note:
Enter people whose relationship to the organization does not constitute an organizational relationship, such as emergency contacts or beneficiaries, on specialized components throughout HCM.
The identification number can be labeled as EmplID, Person ID, or ID. These fields all refer to the same identification number. Do not assume that a field labeled EmplID refers to employees only.
