About Employee Selection

The Employee Selection task allows you to create groups of employees, organized in groups as created by your design. These groups are called Selection Lists and can be used to select employees on many windows in Sage 300 Payroll. Most employee-related Sage 300 Payroll windows allow you to select which employees to include in a process, task, or report.  

Selection Lists can include as many employees as you require. The same employees can belong to several different selection lists if needed. After you create a selection list, you can use it on any Sage 300 Payroll window that has a Selection List field.

Selection lists also provide the basis for Employee Level Security.

If your company uses Employee Level Security, you have access only to the employees that have been assigned to you. Therefore, you can set up selection lists only for this group of employees. If database security is turned on for your company, you require at least one of the following authorizations to use the Employee Selection window and to print the Employee Selection Report:

  • Selection List Maintenance
  • Employee Maintenance
  • Employee Deletion
  • Employee Inquiry
