Change the Labor Code Number

To change the number of a labor code record, use the Key Conversions utility for labor codes.

Warning: If your company uses an on-premises deployment of Vantagepoint, Deltek strongly recommends that you create a backup copy of your database before running the utility. There is no way to undo this process without a backup database.

If your company has an on-premises deployment of Vantagepoint, your company manages your database backup. If your company has a cloud-based deployment of Vantagepoint, coordinate with Deltek about your database backup.

1. In the Navigation pane, select Utilities > Key Conversions > Labor Codes.
2. On the Change Number tab of the Labor Codes form, click + Add Labor Code below the grid.
