Planning for Employee Level Security Setup
If your company is using the Employee Level Security for payroll, all employees in your company must be grouped into a number of selection lists. These lists can be broken down into other lists.
Selection List Examples
This example shows how all employees in your company could be grouped into the selection lists to be used with Employee Level Security.
BC. All employees in the British Columbia offices
BCS. All employees in the southern BC division
BCSEXEC. All executives, southern BC
BCSSALES. All sales staff, southern BC
BCSREG. All regular employees (not executive or sales), southern BC
BCSREG01. All development department employees, southern BC
BCSREG02. All testing department employees, southern BC
BCN. Same pattern for the northern BC division
As this example shows, an employee who is on the BCSREG01 selection list is also on all of the lists above that list. A lower-level list can contain only employees in the lists above it in the hierarchy.
Lower level selection lists must include ONLY the employees that are in the selection lists that are above them in the hierarchy.
A selection list can be assigned to a user as either a main list or a reporting list.
Note: When a new employee record is added in payroll, the employee is automatically added to the selection list of the user who added it and to all selection lists to which that list belongs.
