Use this form to set up codes used throughout HR.

The code types are as follows:

The HR Codes form allows you to set up the majority of the different codes you will need without having to enter a variety of programs to do so. The exception to this is the Benefits and Position Codes programs, which are used only to set up benefit and position codes, respectively.

The Codes form uses a code Type to distinguish between the different categories of codes you can set up. Each of these types will be used in specific maintenance programs when setting up the miscellaneous types of information about a resource.

• Accident Type Codes – Used to identify different types of accidents. Codes of this type are used in the HR Resource Accident program.

• Body Part Codes – Used to describe the location of the injury. Examples of codes that you might want to set up are: left arm, right arm, left knee, right knee, left index finger, right index finger, and so forth. These codes are used when logging entries in HR Resource Accident.

• Schedule Codes – Use for codes that identify the different work schedules (e.g. Days, Swing, and Graveyard) or types of leave (vacation, paid time off, etc.). The system uses this type of code in the HR Resource Schedule, HR Leave Request, and HR Multi-Day Leave Request forms.

These codes are used when setting up rating groups in HR Performance Rating Groups, and when logging entries in HR Resource Review (Performance Ratings tab).
