New Employees Screen

If the TimeForce database contains employees that are not assigned to any pay policies, the New Employees screen will open when any user with the necessary access rights logs into the system.
Note: In order for the "New Employees" screen to appear, the user must have the following access rights specified: "Administrative Policies" and "Add Employee."  See User Security for instructions on specifying user access rights.

This screen allows you to assign the new employees to a Pay Group, thus assigning them to each pay policy specified within the chosen group.

When creating an employee from within the TimeForce program (from either the main "Employee" tab or using the Employee Setup Wizard in the "Admin" tab) default pay policies are already assigned.  The New Employees screen will only appear when employees have been imported into TimeForce via an Excel Spreadsheet or the Quickbooks or Millennium Seamless Interface.

Using the New Employees Screen

The New Employees screen is divided into two sections.  The left-hand side of the screen allows you to search for new employees and assign them to a Pay Group.  The Pay Groups setup screen appears in the right-hand section of the screen.

Searching for New Employees

All new employees that this user has access to are listed on this screen.  Use the search option to narrow the displayed list down to specific employees only.

  • The First Name column allows you to enter an employee's first name to search by.

  • The Last Name column allows you to enter an employee's last name to search by.

  • If you would like to search for employees assigned to a specific department level only, make the desired selection from the Department drop-down menu.  Click on the icon to select the department from a map.

  • Use the Sort By field to define how you would like the system to sort the found search results.

Click on the [DISPLAY] icon to search for new employees.

Assigning New Employees to a Pay Group

New employees are displayed directly below the [DISPLAY] icon on the left-hand section of the screen.  Select the Pay Group that you would like to assign the employee to from the Assign Pay Group drop-down menu and click on the [>] icon.

Creating and Editing Pay Groups

The main Pay Groups screen is displayed on the right-hand section of the New Employees screen.  Click on the following link to view detailed instructions on setting up and using Pay Groups.
