Employees
The Employee Maintenance module allows you to set up the names of all of your employees, technicians and contractors, coordinators, managers and anyone involved in the process of running your service operation.
Once set up, employees can be assigned to jobs and added to time sheets. The users of TSM are also considered employees and are setup here.
Adding / changing Employees
For a new Employee:
- Click
on the toolbar. - Each employee must have a unique Employee Code. This can be their name, initials or any other code you want to use to uniquely identify an employee. Enter a unique identification code here.
Whether adding or changing Employee details:
- Enter all employee details
- Click
on the toolbar to keep the information or 
to reset.
To delete an employee, press the 
button and click on OK to confirm or Cancel to change your mind.
Note: You can not delete the last employee with Supervisor privileges.
Note: Deleting an employee will not delete any of the employee’s transaction history.
Searching for an Employee
If you wish to find a particular employee, use the Search window, by clicking the 
button from the toolbar, to enter codes or names to find a matching employee.
Within the Employee Search screen you designate the criteria to Search By and enter the value to search in the adjacent field to do the match against. When you have found a match, press the Select button to retrieve the details.
For example, if you have forgotten an Employee’s Code and only remember their first name, simply select First name as the search criteria and enter their first name and wait for TSM to bring you a match.
You can also click on the column heading to change the sort order and click again to change between Ascending and Descending order.
