Use This Feature

• User name - Each employee needs a unique user name to log into your practice management system, timeclock, and HR Manager. This name is the same in both the ViewPoint User Accounts and HR Manager employee lists.

• Abbreviation - The employee abbreviation is used when you audit ViewPoint actions performed by this employee. The abbreviation is the same in both your ViewPoint Edit User Accounts feature and the HR Manager. Once you have created the employee record, you can edit the abbreviation from the Office panel area of the HR Manager or in the ViewPoint Edit User Accounts feature. See "Office Panel" for details

• Password / confirm password - The employee uses the password to log into your practice management system, timeclock, and HR Manager. You must type the exact same password into both the Password and Confirm Password fields before the HR Manager will accept it. Once you have created the employee record, you cannot change the password from the HR Manager: You can only change the password from your ViewPoint User Accounts. See "Change Your Password" for details.

• Full name - Enter the employee's first name, middle initial (optional), and last name.

• Save - Click to Save your changes, or click Cancel to exit editing mode without changing the record.

Notice!

• Assign security - Assign new employees to a security group. Until you do so, they will not be able to log into your practice management system or timeclock. See "Set Up Operator Accounts" for details.

• Acquire fingerprint - If you use a fingerprint sensor to log into your system, obtain fingerprint identification from the new employee.See "Acquire Staff Fingerprints" for details.

• Administrative option- You can "hide" records from the employee list by enabling the Don't Show in HR Module option in your ViewPoint Edit User Accounts. This feature is useful for "employee" records you have created for administrative purposes and not individuals. See "Set Up Operator Accounts" for details.

• Delete employee record - Once created, you cannot delete an employee record. You can, however, flag that record as Inactive in your ViewPoint User Accounts.
