Validation Tables Overview
Validation tables are a central point which stores generic skills, events, positions and property used throughout hr. To facilitate your data entry, it is recommended that you populate the validation tables as much as possible before building your organisation structure. After implementation is complete, entries can be added to the validation tables at the point of data entry. For example, the company has an existing set of training courses, which you would pre-define in the validation tables at the start of implementation. When hr is up and running, new training courses can be added as you add the actual training record to the employee, incumbent or position.
Most entries in the validation tables are designed to facilitate two-step data entry, with primary and secondary entries. For example you can define a primary training type OH&S, with secondary training courses fire safety, electrical safety and incident investigation. When setting up a training event, selection of the OH&S training type automatically displays the linked secondary types.
