HR: Employee Compliance Tracker Quick Entry

Overview

The Employee Compliance Tracker Quick Entry window is accessed from the Compliance Tracker By Employee window. Use it to quickly enter Compliance information for multiple employees. It also allows you to filter for Compliance Codes and also set defaults for completing Compliance information.

Note:  The Compliance Tracker Quick Entry feature can only be used for non-license compliance codes (codes on the Compliance Codes tab). It cannot be used for License/Expiration Codes.

  • If a compliance code is not configured to support Failed or Skipped options, then the Failed option in unavailable in the grid.
  • When the Advanced Security option is selected on the Compliance Tracking Codes window, users cannot edit or delete compliance code history in an employee's record.

When you filter items, you selectively choose what items will appear in the grid. You can filter by Compliance Code, Due Date, Date Completed, Score, Primary Job Number, Employee Number, Primary Job Tier, User Name Added, and Hire Date Range.

Defaults can be set to make data entry easier. It is a good idea to include as much information that is the same for all employees that completed the Compliance item. You can set the Compliance Code, Due Date, Date Completed, Skipped, Score, Completion Notes, and Employee Number. With most of the default information added, you can then quickly enter the Employees who completed the item. When Default information is entered, that related field in the grid is removed from the Tab stop. This is much faster than entering information in each employee record.
