Use this screen to define labor groups or unions that exist within your company.
The purpose of this screen is to establish labor groups/unions that can be assigned to employees. This designation allows you to group and sort data in the People domain.
Initialize this screen after you set up the Labor Settings screen. You should define entries in this screen as part of your initial setup or any time you need to create a new labor group/union.
How does the system use data from this screen?
Labor groups are referenced in the Benefit Package Defaults, Employee Salary Information, Union Profiles, Update Excess Life Deductions, and Wage Determination Rates screens.
Can I change or delete labor groups/unions from this screen?
After you have saved a record, you can edit the Description field , even if you have assigned the labor group/union to an employee record. You cannot, however, modify text in the Labor Group Code/Union ID field. This field is non-editable.
If you have not assigned a labor group/union to an employee record, you can delete the code from this screen. You cannot delete the code from this screen if it has been assigned to an employee record because dependent data exists.
Enter up to three alphanumeric characters to identify the labor group. Each entry must be unique.

Note: This field will be labeled, "Union ID," if you selected the Enable Union Functionality checkbox in the Labor Settings screen. If you did not select this checkbox, this field will be labeled, "Labor Group Code." Your setup of the Labor Settings screen has a significant impact on the appearance of the fields in this screen and the function of this data throughout Costpoint. For example, if you selected the Enable Wage Determination Feature checkbox in the Labor Settings screen, completion of the Labor Group field will be required in the Employee Salary Information screen. If you selected the Enable Union Functionality checkbox in the Labor Settings screen, completion of the Union field will be required in the Employee Salary Information program. |
Enter up to 30 alphanumeric characters to describe the labor group/union.

Note: Since the Labor Settings screen is not available in this Web release, you must make settings changes in the client/server version of Costpoint. After you complete your settings modifications, you must return to the Web version and access the Reload Global Settings screen (Administration\Utilities\System Administration\Reload Global Settings). This utility establishes continuity between the Web and client/server environments. Select the appropriate checkbox and click the Action icon to execute synchronization. |
* A red asterisk denotes a required field.
Changes to this screen update the LAB_GRP (Labor Groups/Unions) table.
