The auto-increment option of Core HR allows you to specify when Employee IDs should begin. This can help when your company has already assigned Employee IDs before you began using Core HR.
Navigating to General Settings
- Expand 'Setup' and click Setup Properties from the menu.
How to Set Up Employee ID Auto-Increment
- Enable the 'Auto increment Employee ID starting at' and specify the employee ID that should be automatically generated for a new employee.
- Save any changes.
- The next time you add a new employee, the employee ID should begin from the ID entered in Step 1. For example, if the employee ID should begin at '90006', then the next employee that you add will have the employee ID '90006'.
If using Onboarded New Hire Tile
If you have integrated Arcoro's Onboarding and Core HR modules while using auto-increment IDs with no duplicates enabled, the employee IDs will be reserved when selecting an employee from the Onboarded New Hire Page. This helps minimize situations where employees may have duplicate employee IDs.
If the new hire is selected, but not completed or deleted, the auto-incremented employee ID will remain incremented and will not be reused.
