The fields and functions of the window are as follows:
Code: The record code of the workstation group. Code information is the most basic information allowing the workstation group records to be used rapidly and accurately in operations such as searching, sorting, and selection, grouping and reporting. Therefore, the code field is mandatory.
In the LOGO application, the analyses planned for the workstation groups must be carefully considered when specifying the codes due to the usage characteristics of the code field. An information infrastructure allowing multi-dimensional analyses can be established if each character or character group of the code contains classification information.
Description: The name or description of the workstation group. Although the workstation description field is an important field, it is not mandatory.
Since search and sorting operations can be made by description in the LOGO application, the employee records are also sorted by description.
The workstation group information is recorded in the following tabs of workstation group window:
- General Info
- Group Members
- G/L Codes
