Organization Structure#

The Wiki Organization Structure is the building block for the entire system. Every business application defined in the system will utilize this structure in one way or another.

These definitions are the high level rules and policies that will be associated to employees and govern the day-to-day operations. Careful consideration and planning are required to ensure the structure will meet the organization’s current and future requirements.

The organization’s legal and financial structures contain data concerning payroll and human resources government reporting, general ledger chart of accounts, distribution rules, etc. This information is used primarily in the payroll functions, however, basic setup of the G/L company is required at this time.
  • Entities (IDEN)
  • Business Calendars (IDCL)
  • General Ledger Companies (IDGL)
  • Industry Codes (IDIN)

Human Resources Policies pertain to the work agreement between the organization and its employees.

These agreements will be analyzed and then organized into units and then sub-divided into groups. These definitions will be looked at in terms of payroll rules, benefits eligibility, attendance (or leave) policies, salary ranges, and wage rates.
  • Change Reason Codes (IDCR)
  • List Change Reasons (RDCR)
