Defining Job Codes and Occupation Codes
To define job code premiums and occupations, use the Jobcode Premiums (FPMJB_RATECODE) and Occupations (FPNBUSINESS_PNL) components.
The job code is a unique code that you associate with a specific job in your organization. Just as grades are shared between different statuses, jobs are shared among the entities that compose your organization.
An entity enables you to decentralize management of your organization. If you want to centralize corporate data management, use one setID.
This section discusses how to define job code premiums and occupations.
