This document outlines a general guide to follow to create New Contracts.
Job Calendars
Make sure that Job Calendars for the new fiscal year are created in order for new contracts (with the type set to contract) to calculate pay information and days accurately.
Create New Contracts
There are three different ways to create new contracts. You can choose which option works best for you to create your new contracts.
For all contract type contracts, make sure Compensation Start and Compensation Stop dates are defined.
