Edit an Employee Detail

Editing employee records is part of maintaining employee data. Changing information on employee records is achieved by going directly to the screen, entering the updated information through the edit mode, and saving the changes to commit the updated records to the system.

To edit an existing record, locate the specific detail record that you wish to edit. Access the appropriate detail from the menu or the Browse Details tab of the Employee Master.

Note:  Some organizations opt to prohibit employee's from editing their own master and detail records except through employee self-service or on the Employee Out of Office Detail. If this control is activated for your organization, and you need to change your own records, ask another user to add, edit, or delete records as needed.

Edit an Employee Detail Record

1. Select an Employee. To browse for an employee, select from the drop-down list or click on the Next Record and Previous Record arrows on the upper navigation bar. If you have the search icon next to the Employee(s) navigation bar, then you can search for the employee.
2. Select a record to edit from the Browse List. You may also browse for the record, by clicking on the Next Record and Previous Record icons.
3. Click on the Edit icon. Notice that in edit mode, the Save and Cancel icons become available for selection.
4. Complete the relevant field entries. To move from field to field, press the Tab key on your keyboard or use your cursor to click inside the next field. In screens that have selection lists that are inter-related, tabbing from field to field may populate fields from associated validation table records. Edit entries as needed.
5. Click on the Save icon. When you save, the system will prompt ‘Do you wish to save this record?’ (If you do not want to save, click on Cancel.)
6. Select OK to finish saving the record.
