Defining Employee Positions

Employee positions are primarily used to help you choose the right employee for a shift. You can define a list of positions and select one from the list when you are editing or creating an employee. This way, you save time and the positions can be used to group and filter employees.

To add a new position:

1. From the Manage tab, click Positions. Then, click 

2. Enter the required code and description for the position.

3. Specify whether or not the position is active by checking/unchecking the corresponding checkbox, and click Save.

To edit a position:

• Code: A unique code for the position.
• Description: A unique description of the position.
• Display Sort Order: The order that the position is placed in a drop-down list. This is helpful when you have a large number of positions and would like to place the most frequently used position at the top of the list to minimize scrolling.
• Display Color: The color of the position's  icon. This helps you differentiate your various positions. The default color is black.
