List of employees
Window displays list of employees of the COMARCH ERP XL system User. To open it, from the menu: List, select the following item: Employees.
The window contains two tabs: By acronym and By surname. They differ in the layout of the employees list. Tab: By acronym, arranges the list of employees in alphabetical order of acronyms, tab: By surname arranges the list in alphabetical order of surnames.
Due to the fact that the list of employees is used in many places in the System, in this list, from version 2021.1 Comarch ERP XL, the PESEL column has been hidden as a standard. This ensures greater protection of personal data without having to hide this column for many operators. Operation from this version onwards will be in the reverse direction, that is authorised operators should be shown this column on separately defined list formats.
In this window, the user can find the following fields and functions:
[Enable filtering] – allows the user to display a list of employees or search for a specific employee according to the indicated criteria.
Cost centre – with the use of the button: [Indicate centre], or button: , the user can select the cost centre. Once selected, a list of only those employees assigned to the centre will be displayed.

From the employee list opened by right-click via the “List of employee centres” option, the user can open a list of cost centres to which the selected employee is assigned and which of these centres is the default employee centre. If there is only one centre linked, it will automatically be the default centre. If there is more than one link, then the default centre will be the last centre set on the general tab of the employee card. It is not possible to remove an employee from their default cost centre. Only one centre can be the default for a given employee. The default cost centre can be changed from the List of employee centres by ticking the Default parameter next to the centre which is to become the default centre. The parameter next to the current default centre will be automatically unchecked.
