Employee Master - Required Fields

When entering a new employee into the Employee Master there is certain minimum information that is 'Required'.

Required fields are marked with a red ' * '.  If you attempt to save an employee master record without an entry in one of these fields the screen will not close and remain open until an entry is made.

The fields include:

- Code                           - Date of Engagement

- Surname                     - Department

- First Name                  - Cost Centre

- Date of birth               - Paypoint

- Occupation,               - Employment type

- National ID                 - Rate of Pay

These fields are 'Required' primarily because the information is used in the payroll in various calculations and reports.

If any required fields have not been completed for an employee a message will displayed when trying to save the record. Once the missing information has been entered then it is possible to save the record.
