Employee Defaults

Each type of master data has the respective form, holding the default values to be applied to the ERP data. These fields are principally the fields which are required in FT but are not available in the ERP system. The employee default form holds the default values to be applied to employee records copied from the ERP system. Employee information can be downloaded to Factory Track when the Time Track Module is used or when the Shop Floor module is used. The data must be downloaded from the ERP, and using the default records as a guide, must create the employee temporary records. These can be processed to add employees or update existing employee records.
