Using the Staffing Service Branch Add Wizard

The Staffing Service Branch Add Wizard takes you step-by-step through the information necessary to add a staffing service branch to your database. It is easily navigated using the following buttons:

• Next: Takes you to the next screen in the Add Wizard. Note: The Next button only becomes active when you have completed all the required fields on the current screen. Use this button to walk forwards through the Add Wizard.

• Back: Takes you to the previous screen in the Add Wizard. This is useful if you realize you made a mistake entering information during the Add Wizard.

• Cancel: Closes the Add Wizard WITHOUT adding a new staffing service branch.

• Finish: Only available on the final screen (Verify Staffing Service Branch) of the Add Wizard, this closes the Add Wizard and ADDS the new staffing service branch to your database.

The Staffing Service Branch Add Wizard Fields

The Staffing Service Branch Add Wizard contains the following fields (click the field name for detailed information):

1. On the Branch Add Wizard window:

2. Select the Staffing Service that this branch belongs to (Required)

   Allows you to associate a Staffing Service Branch with a previously entered Staffing Service. For example, you could associate a branch with a divisional/regional Staffing Service component entered earlier. A "+" symbol indicates the existence of component sublevels within the Staffing Service. Click on the "+" symbol to see these components. You should only associate branches to a divisional/regional Staffing Service component and never to the main (or parent) component. Highlight the divisional/regional Staffing Service component to continue.

3. Branch Name (Required)

   Type the legal name of the Staffing Service Branch (e.g., Acme Staffing).

   NOTE: You may not duplicate branch names within a single Staffing Service component. For example, one divisional office cannot have two identically named branches.

For example, you could have an Acme branch for one divisional component and another Acme branch for a different divisional component.

4. Branch Number (Required)

   Enter a unique number to identify the branch.

   NOTE: You may not duplicate branch numbers within a single Staffing Service component. For example, one divisional office cannot have two identically numbered branches.
