User Defined Supervisor Web Screen Menu

The User Defined Supervisory Web Screen Menu allows authorized users to create a web-based inquiry screen to display selected information regarding an employee. You are able to choose from hundreds of fields exactly what employee information you want to display. You can also control that layout and format of the screen by entering standard HTML tags.

Web Screen Additions

The Web Screen allows authorized users to create a web-based inquiry screen to display selected information regarding an employee.
Once the Web Screen is defined, those with appropriate rights can access the information over the network through any web browser. Creating the screen requires a degree of knowledge of HTML to format the display of data on the web page. You will define the characteristics for three web pages corresponding to the Group Selection Screen, Location Summary Screen and Employee Detail Screen headings listed on the sample Web Screen Additions window below.
The screen is divided into four sections. The Employee Group Selection section allows the selection of groups of employees by category or Payroll ID. Up to 10 Categories or Payroll ID's can be selected for each screen code defined.
The Group Selection Screen defines the characteristics for the first screen displayed after login. The Group Selection Screen html properties will always be that of the first screen listed alphabetically by Screen Code. If you would like the properties of the Group Selection Screen to change you must modify them in the first screen listed alphabetically, when you search on the Screen Code field. A button will display on the Group Selection Screen for each category or Payroll ID group selected in any of the screens you have defined.
If a group and its properties has been defined in more than one screen code, a button will be displayed on the Group Selection Screen for each time that group has been defined in any screen code. The html formatting and properties of each screen code will be retained and displayed differently according to the button chosen. The button is a link to the Location Summary Screen for the group named on the button.
The Location Summary Screen contains a summary of information for each employee in that location and group selected. The first field listed in each row of the summary is a link to the detail screen for that employee.
The Employee Detail Screen displays the selected information for an individual employee in more detail.

A selection window will open to allow you to select the fields that you would like to display in the heading of the Group Selection Screen (i.e. possibly location description, group name, etc.).
