The duplicate function is used to create a new employee record when you are rehiring a previously terminated employee. You can also use this when an employee is changing companies. You should check each screen for any required changes.
The copy function is used to copy an existing employee to create a new record, when the majority of the information is the same e.g. pay class and rate details.
To copy or duplicate an employee record:
Go to Payroll, Maintenance, Employees, Employees.
Highlight the employee you want to duplicate or copy
Right-click on the employee.
Select Duplicate or Copy.
Complete the new employee details by confirming each screen is correct.
OK to save the record.
Important: You cannot use the same Employee Code when you copy or duplicate, as each record needs a unique Code.
