COMPANY:

The Company & Human Resources application is in the LeftNav->AssociateZone. You have to have at least employee privileges to access this application. Any of these accounts, admin, employee, or sales, would suffice. Click on LeftNav->AssociateZone, you should be served a window like this:

 

If not, log out and log back on as 'admin'. We will need to be more than 'employee' pretty soon.

There is nothing to search at this point. Because we don't have any employees yet. A couple accounts we have been using so far did have employee privileges, but they were not really the employees of the company, were they?

So, the first thing we need to do is to enter our employees into the company database. Normally the easiest way to do that, again, is to import whatever personnel records we have directly into the database. But if we want to do this thru the application, LeftNav->AssociateZone->AddEmployee is what we need. (requires 'admin' privileges).

Well, not so fast. There is more prep work prior to entering employees. To make our point, click on 'AddEmployee', and click on the input list 'Site' as shown in the image:

It is empty! As long as we cannot provide the site a new employee works at, 'AddEmployee' will not accept the input. So there is no use, we have to enter the company sites first. Note that other input field above like 'Title', 'Job Class', 'Department' in the AddEmployee window do have some data, so we can start using them immediately. We'll show you how to add more into those lists in a moment as well. But let's first start with the Sites:
