Helpdesk Ticket Changes in Webpay

Helpdesk Ticket Changes in Webpay in Mar 2011
1. Helpdesk Ticket Category: No major change except the caption is now dynamic i.e. you can choose what to call it.
2. Helpdesk Query Category: No major change except the caption is now dynamic i.e. you can choose what to call it.
3. Helpdesk Location : New Form
4. Pending Due to: No major change except the caption is now dynamic i.e. you can choose what to call it.
5. Helpdesk Labels: New Form. In this form you can create the labels for forms Point 1 to 4 which are at present mentioned as Category, Query, Location and Pending Due to. This means you can decide on the nomenclature yourself. The three parameters viz. category, query and location are used to decide on the ticket response authority. You can now map the users as per these three parameters. Earlier it was only available with category. But still these two new parameters viz. query and location are not mandatory to be mapped with the user who is suppose to provide the response.
6. Helpdesk Ticket Authority: Changes done in this form is that you can now assign ESS users (Employees) to respond to ticket. This way you do not need to give access of company admin to the users who are to respond to tickets. They can do so from ESS. Secondly, there is a major change i.e. you can give authority to the users as per Category, Query, Location and Effective Date. Therefore if a user A is assigned one category, query and location and you wish to also assign another user to do the same then you need to enter the effective date. This means that one user can provide help for one type of combination at one point of time and the combination is Category, Query, Location and Effective Date.
7. New form added in ESS where by the employee can give reply to the tickets. Blog by BBSPL

Changes in Webpay with regards to Salary Structure Import method in Webpay

Changes in Webpay with regards to Salary Structure Import method.

The following change effects only import salary structure and not the individual salary structure assignment form.

Objective: The users of Webpay (Company Admin) can now be mapped with the template and the paycodes in the template. When the user logs in then he/she would only be able to insert the paycode which he/she is authorized to. Even if there are more paycodes in the template but you have assigned fewer to the user, the user can only insert which he/she is authorized to.

To use the above you need to do the following:

1. Map the user with the paycode in user administration section. However this process is not mandatory, if you do not wish to map the users with paycodes the process would work as earlier.

2. The user logs in and uses the import method to assign salary structure

3. The user would only be able to view the paycodes he/she is assigned with and also insert only those.

Unable to use formula in excel report in Webpay

Unable to use formula in excel report in Webpay

To execute the formula in the excel sheet you need to change the format of the columns in the excel sheet to "GENERAL".
Select the whole sheet --> Right Click --> Format Cells --> Number --> Select General and Click OK. Now you would be able to execute the formulas. The excel sheet that is published is in Text Format because if the employee code is 0001, it would change to 1 in excel.

Remember if the employee code is like 0001 then do not change the employee code column format.
