Employee Fields Impacted by the Multicompany Feature

If you have multiple companies in DPS and employees are associated with multiple companies, some fields in the Employees hub are company-specific and others are not.

When you have an employee who is associated with multiple companies, the employee has multiple employee records in the Employees hub, and each employee record is associated with a different company. The entries in company-specific fields in the Employees hub, apply only to the company that the employee record is associated with. The table below identifies the fields in the Employees hub that are company-specific. For example, fields for information such as organization, job cost rate, and pay rate are company specific since this information would not necessarily be the same for the employee for each company they are associated with.

The Employees hub also has fields that are not company specific. The entries in these fields automatically apply for all the multiple employee records that an employee has. For example the employee name, credentials, resumes, and personal information are the same across all the employee's multiple employee records. For employees with multiple employee records, if you change the entry in a field that is not company specific in one employee record, the field is automatically updated in all the employee's other employee records.
