When any attribute field in the profiles tab changes
you may either update the field or create a new profile. When a
change may affect future or past scheduling activity it is recommended
that you create a new profile because
dates contained in the
profile tab may affect scheduling days.
| IMPORTANT |
| It is important that only one profile is active
at a time and the dates in the From and Through fields do
not overlap across profiles. |
Rule of thumb:
Clone or add a new profile with a new effective (from) date
and end the old profile when:
- Any attribute such as rank, can act as, specialties, or
groups are assigned with a future effective date.
- The Wage value changes and historical data or accurate cost
reports or both are desired.
- The Pay Information value changes and that value is required
to feed a disparate system.
Update the profile tab when the information does not affect scheduling
or a disparate system.
Security permission settings control the ability to edit and
create new profiles.
