Edit

Most records can be edited by clicking on the Edit icon when the record is displayed on its screen or validation table. Clicking on the Edit icon changes the mode of the screen to accept data entry. System constraints may prohibit editing certain fields.

When possible, instead of editing existing records, add records to establish history.

Note:  From the online system, an employee's own records are view-only, except through self-service roles or on the Employee Out of Office Detail. A user with a different employee number needs to edit records for the employee.

How to Edit

• A record?   On any screen with the Edit icon, to edit the displayed record, click on the Edit icon, make changes as needed, and save to keep the changes.
• An employee detail record?  To edit a detail, select the Employee, access the appropriate detail screen, browse until you find the relevant record, and click on the Edit icon.  Save to keep the changes.

• A code record?  Avoid modifying the value in the Code field itself when editing a validation table record. The edit function is used to modify the description and other related information for a Code. Save to keep the changes.
