There are many fields you can add in your Employee records. As the organisation grows, it becomes difficult to manage more records. It is advisable to keep updating and entering records to facilitate data management of employees.

Employee records also help in keeping a list of your team’s skills, previous employment history and emergency information.

Numbering Employees (Employee ID)

By default, in ERPNext Employee Records are Numbered. You can have multiple series if you are a really large company and want to have separate numbering series for separate locations etc. You can set the numbering series just like any other transaction by going to:

Setup > Customize > Document Numbering Series.

Alternatively, you can create employees by the “Employee Number” field if you already have an existing Employee Numbering system you want to follow. To set this, go to

Setup > Global Defaults > HR

and update the “Employee Records created by” field.
