The Profile tab identifies what this user can do and contains their attributes such as job title, pay information, skill sets, and acting capabilities. A profile is not an assignment; a profile is one version of a person in the application.
A person may have multiple profiles but only one profile may be active at a time. This means the staffing rules and filter queries will return the active profile for the given date.
Profile graphics have two statuses, a profile with a green background indicates an active profile. A profile with a gray background indicates an inactive profile.
As of application version 7.0 the person profile became job centric with wage information and skills and certifications located outside the person’s profile area. This means wages, skills, and certification are associated with the person and not a specific profile.
Security permission settings in Setup control the ability to edit or create new profiles, or both.
Customers using Dimensions must apply the product license that will be integrating with Dimensions, for example TeleStaff license indicates a TeleStaff Dimensions integration, and a Planner license indicates a Planner Dimensions integration and so on. You must identify and provide the product license for each employee in the Dimensions People Editor. Doing so will allow Dimensions to sync personnel scheduling activity, in addition to the matching profile data mapped between both applications. The Dimensions primary job populates the profile in this application according to the effective date. Modifications made to the person’s profile in this application meaning outside of Dimensions are retained in this application - except for the Opportunity# which is the Seniority# in Dimensions, or any field that is shared between the two applications. When the same field exists in both applications, the field in Dimensions will override data in this application.
