Defining a Job Code

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to navigate a Job Code admin object.

Job Code

Job Codes are used to define unique job functions or roles within an organization. They can be assigned to worker records to group people with similar skills.

When creating Job Postings, job codes can be used to search for workers according to the skills needed to fulfill an assignment. Only workers who share the same job code defined on the job posting would be listed. Results that display when using a job code search can include contingent workers, SOW workers, and profile workers, along with users and workforce records that also share the job code.

Job Code admin object list page listing several job codes. A Job Posting Template is also shown, displaying in the Job Code field dropdown menu the same codes that appear on the Job Code List page.

Navigating the Job Code Admin Object
