Creating or loading a resource

Resources can be loaded from HR11 employee records or created individually and not tied to an HR11 employee record. If using a standalone application, resources cannot be loaded from HR11 employee records. Resources are setup as other in standalone applications.

Note: 

Upon successful addition of a Resource, the system automatically creates an Agent Record with the key values of the Finance Group and Resource ID. You must associate the Agent record to an Actor record before the user logs in to Infor Rich Client.
