Column Configuration
8. The available columns hold the following information:
Column Name Description
Key Tells you whether the object is an Organization Unit (O), a position (S) or a person (P). It also gives the ID number of the object.
Relationship Text Identifies the relationships between objects in the structure.
Code Gives the short code the for Organization Unit or Position, in the case of employees the code is the Employee Surname
Validity Period Shows the start date of the object and if it is due to finish, when.
The “valid to” dates all appear to be unlimited and therefore are unreliable. Only the “valid from” dates are useful.
Link period period Largely the same as validity period and as such provides little extra information.
Percentage 100% for all employees therefore gives no meaningful information.
