Job Information Overview

You enter job information to identify and define the jobs within your organization.  This must be done before the job can be assigned to an employee.  When you enter a new job, you can review an existing job first, and then copy information from it, if applicable.  When you define a job within your organization, you can track additional information that is unique to your organization or your industry by using the supplemental data funtionality.  Periodically, you might need to update job information.  When you change information for a job, you can globally apply the changes for all of the employees who are assigned to that job.

When you assign a job to an employee, you can have the system automatically assign all the associated job information to the employee.  You can override this default job information for individual employees, if necessary.  After entering initial job information, you can evaluate a job to determine a salary for the position.  Job evaluation is a method of comparing jobs and establishing equitable salaries for all positions relative to their importance and value to your company.  You might evaluate jobs when you add new positions to your company or when you determine a salary increase for all positions in a certain job group to stay competitive with comparative salaries in the industry.  For more information on evaluating jobs see document Job Evaluation & Pay Range Formulas.

Job information is stored in the Job Information table (F08001).

Job Entry and Evaluation

To enter a basic job the following fields are required:

Note:  Adding a job in Job Entry and Evaluation (P08001) will add the job type value to the UDC 06/G.  However adding the value directly to the UDC 06/G does not add it to the Job Information table F08001.  Jobs to be used should be entered via the Job Entry and Evaluation process.
Note:  You can leave this field blank and enter a pay frequency at the employee level.  A blank value in this field at the job level does not override any value that you enter at the employee level.

Note:  If you have set up your system to use rates in the Pay Grade Step table as the default pay rates for employees, changing an employee's pay grade step causes the system to automatically update the following fields:

The following fields are optional:
