Set Up Basic Files

You can set up basic information files with name, title and marital status details.

Name Style Configuration

You can report previous surname and decoration (honours), but they are optional report fields and are not in the predefined UK name style. You can configure the UK name style to include these additional name components:

  • Use the Person Name Styles task to search for your name style.
  • Configure your name style as follows to report these name attributes:
  • Previous Surname – use the Previous Last Name component
  • Decoration – use the Honors component. Optionally, add values to the HONORS lookup type to associate with this field.

Title and Marital Status Mapping

MyCSP accepts only valid title codes and marital statuses. An invalid code will raise an error in the Basics file. Codes are mapped in the application using the Extended Lookup Codes task. Do not delete any predefined mappings to MyCSP codes.

See Appendix for a list of marital statuses and titles that have predefined mappings to MyCSP codes.
Note: The Extended Code column displays the reported code.
If your lookup type includes additional values that are not mapped, you must map them using the Extended Lookups task:
  • To map a title, use the Title (TITLE) lookup type.
  • To map a marital status that is in:
  • Both the system lookup type Marital status for person (System Lookup) (PER_MAR_STATUS) and the user lookup type Marital Status (MAR_STATUS), map to the reported MyCSP code from either lookup type.
  • The user lookup type Marital Status (MAR_STATUS) only, that is, a new user-defined value, map to the reported MyCSP code from that user lookup type.
Note: If no marital status exists for an employee, the application reports U (unknown). A warning is displayed in the Errors and Warnings report.
