About the Personnel Database
One of the primary functions of the Personnel database is to store information about your employees. Because DDMS is fully integrated, the information you enter in the personnel database is supplied automatically to other parts of the system. In this case, this information is used for payroll operations. Setting up your personnel database involves:
Setting personnel parameters
Creating personnel files.
DDMS makes it quick and easy to start your personnel database with as few errors as possible. For example, you can let the system assign employee identification numbers automatically, which prevents duplicate numbers. Once you build your personnel database, it is easy to retrieve an employee. You can retrieve an employee by name or identification number.
Accurate Employee History Information
You can build and maintain complete and accurate employee history information. DDMS uses information from payroll to keep cumulative year-to-date totals for each of your employees. It uses this information at year-end to print W-2 forms and reports.
Reporting Capabilities
To operate your business more effectively, you need immediate access to information about reports. A catalog of standard reports with pre-designed formats makes reporting easy. For more information, see About Personnel Reports.
