Employee Prefix

On the Payroll Parameters form, specify the default prefix to be used with employee numbers.

A prefix can consist of numeric and non-numeric (letters and symbols) characters. However, the prefix should end with an alphabetic character to ensure that the system increments employee numbers correctly.

When a prefix is added, this prefix will not affect any existing employee numbers. Also, when entering employee numbers in the system, you may overwrite this prefix.

For example, if you enter UX in the Employee Prefix field, the default employee numbers generated by the system are UX00001, UX00002, UX00003, and so forth. If you do not enter a value in the Employee Prefix field, the default employee numbers generated by the system are 1, 2, 3, and so forth.
