Employee Group Type Fields

Field Description
Group Type Code

Enter a 10-character, uppercase alphanumeric employee group type code. Each employee Group Type Code must be unique. Although this code does not display in other screens, you should assign a meaningful code because this field can be used in user-defined reports/inquiries.

Description

Enter an employee group type description of up to 30 characters. Because they are used in drop-down list and as column headings for reports/inquiries, make descriptions as short as possible and properly capitalized.  Each employee group type Description must be unique.
