Documentation: My Employees

(Video Tutorial)

Institutions may elect to use the My Employees module. This module expands the system’s ability to support data management functions for Institution-Only Data. Please recall, Institution-Only Data is only collected if the institution opts to use this system feature.  If your institution elects to use the Institution-Only Data fields, the submitted data will not be viewable to other ARL PD Bank users or usable by users outside of your institution in searching the ARL PD Bank.  The functionality described below is only available for institutions opting to use the My Employees module.

Please note: the My Employees module requires the institution to use an Employee ID number for each employee record. 

The My Employees tab launches a screen which allows you to search for your institution’s employees by Employee Name or Employee ID number. A blank search will return all employees for your institution.

The search results for My Employees are depicted in a standardized screen.  An example of search results is shown below:
