Understanding Supplemental Data Entry for Jobs

Supplemental data is any type of information that you want to track that is not already provided for by the system. You can track supplemental data for these databases:

  • Employees

  • Jobs

  • Applicants

  • Requisitions

When you set up your JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Human Resources system, you define the types of supplemental data (data types) that you want to track. Supplemental data is not required by the system.

For jobs, typical types of supplemental data might include:

  • Job descriptions

  • Major responsibilities

  • Authority level

  • Job reporting relationships

  • Education required

  • Experience required

  • Skills required

  • Job progression patterns

  • Hazardous materials handling

  • Succession candidates

The method that you use to enter supplemental data is the same as for any other type of supplemental information that you track.
