The Skills Evaluation register
The Skills Evaluation register allows Employees to list their skills together with ratings, thus building up a record of the skills in the company. You will then be able to use the
Skills Evaluation report when you need to find Employees with particular skills.
To open the Skills Evaluation register, first ensure you are in the Human Resources Management module. Then, if you are using Windows or Mac OS X, click the [Registers] button in the Navigation Centre and then double-click 'Skills Evaluations' in the resulting list. If you are using iOS or Android, tap the [Registers] button in the Navigation Centre and then tap 'Skills Evaluations' in the 'Registers' list. The 'Skills Evaluations: Browse' window will be opened, listing the Skills Evaluation records that you have already entered.
To enter a new Skills Evaluation record, select 'New' from the Create menu (Windows/Mac OS X) or the + menu (iOS/Android). You can also use the Ctrl-N (Windows) or ⌘-N (Mac OS X) keyboard shortcut. Alternatively, highlight or open a Skills Evaluation record similar to the one you want to enter, and select 'Duplicate' from the same menu. If you don't want to open the 'Skills Evaluations: Browse' window before creating a new record, you can also use the + menu in the Navigation Centre (all platforms).
The 'Skills Evaluation: New' window will be opened, empty if you selected 'New' or containing a duplicate of the highlighted Skills Evaluation record. Complete the Skills Evaluation record as appropriate and as described below, then save it using the [Save] button (Windows/Mac OS X) or by tapping √ (iOS/Android). You can then close it using the close box (Windows/Mac OS X) or by tapping < (iOS/Android). Then, close the browse window using the close box or < again.
