Employee Auto Numbering - HR Personnel Workbench

When adding a new personnel record, if the HR ID is left blank, then:

  • If the person has a Coins ERP+ payroll type and EMPAUTON is not blank, the HR ID will be auto-generated according to the Payroll parameters.

  • If the person has a non-Coins ERP+ payroll type and AUTOID is not blank, the HR ID will be auto-generated according to the HR parameters.

If a personnel record is updated so that the payroll type changes from non-Coins ERP+ payroll to Coins ERP+ payroll or vice versa and/or the company is changed, and the HR ID is not changed at the same time, then:

  • If the person now has a Coins ERP+ payroll type, EMPAUTON is not blank, and the HR ID does not already comply with the standard validation rules, the HR ID will be automatically re-generated according to the Payroll parameters.

  • If the person now has a non-Coins ERP+ payroll type, AUTOID is not blank, and the HR ID does not already comply with the standard validation rules, the HR ID will be automatically re-generated according to the HR parameters.

If the user sets the HR ID (add or update) and either the person has a Coins ERP+ payroll type and EMPAUTON is ‘ALWAYS’, or the person has a non-Coins ERP+ payroll type and AUTOID is ‘ALWAYS’, then they will get an error.

When auto-generating an HR ID or when checking the validity of an auto-generated or manually-entered ID, the function checks for any clash with either another HR personnel ID or another Payroll employee number .

Personnel Data Load

When creating or updating a person via the Personnel Data Load, the same rules will apply as when using the Personnel Workbench.
