Overview
The Tier Descriptions can be accessed from the Job Master File (Tier Parameters) screen.
Tier Descriptions are created for each Tier Caption. If one of your Tier Captions was Region, and your selections for Region included Midwest, Eastern, Western, Corporate and you wanted them to print in this order, you would assign the lowest ID number to Midwest.
Example: If the User who is logged on has a Basic Read Security level of 5, that User can assign any employee who has a higher security level, but cannot change or view any information in the Employee Master File that pertains to pay rate information.
Key Functionality
ID
WinTeam automatically assigns an ID to each new record, and uses the ID field to identify each record. You may change system-assigned ID Numbers.
Description
Use this field to enter a unique name for the record. After a new record is created, WinTeam displays this Description with the corresponding ID number in the Add/Edit list.
Contact
Enter a Contact to associate with the Tier, or use the Quick Lookup to locate a Contact.
Double-click in the Contact field to open the Contact record.
Employee Number
Enter an Employee Number, or use the Lookup, to associate an Employee with the Tier Description.
When determining if the logged on User can assign an Employee to a Tier Description, the system looks at the User's Basic Read security level.
