Selecting Employees

Use

You specify the employees to whom you want to assign authorization to use Employee Self-Service . If you do not want to allow all employees to use ESS, you can select a specific department or employees assigned to a specific employee group.

When starting a pilot project, you are advised to select a small number of employees first before applying the project to your entire enterprise.

You can also exclude specific employee groups, such as inactive employees or retirees.
