Add a Lookup Table to Job Data Packages
Users with full access to the Job Data Packages permission can complete the following steps.
- Select All Apps in the top left corner of the header and then Settings from the drop-down menu.
- From the Settings page, select Job Data Packages under the Jobs section.
- From the Job Data Packages page, either open the preferred package or create a new one from the + Create Package button in the upper-right corner of the All Job Data Packages list.
- When the data package opens in a slide-out drawer, select the action menu, or ellipses, next to the Base Pay Minimum field and then Reference Lookup Table from its drop-down menu.
- A new page of the drawer will open. Select the preferred Lookup Table to use.
- Note: Only active Lookup Tables will be available for selection.
- All columns from the table will then display. For each column, select the following:
-
Data Reference – This is what the system will reference for this data column. Update this column to one of the following:
- System Attributes – This allows you to choose from Job and Location Attributes.
- Lookup Table – This allows you to nest a Table Lookup from this table. Only a single nesting is available to prevent a cyclical lookup.
- Column Input – This allows you to choose a fixed value from the options in the column. If a column has multiple of the same values, it is only displayed once in the list.
- Value – This is the value associated with the selected Data Reference. Choose your preferred value from the selector's options.
-
Data Reference – This is what the system will reference for this data column. Update this column to one of the following:
- From the Default Value field, enter in a value that will be used if the calculation fails for any reason.
- Select Confirm in the bottom right corner of the drawer.
- The original page of the drawer will display. Review the calculation by hovering over the table to view the chosen inputs.
- Note: No exact value will be posted here, as the calculation will take place on the job.
- If you want to set the Base Pay Maximum in the same manner, repeat steps #4-9 for this field.
- Create or save the Job Data Package.
