Associate Records with XREF
The XREF functionality in Adonis is designed to associate records in the Adonis lookup tables, such as General Codes and Organization Structure, with their corresponding codes used in external systems.
Before getting started, make sure, the third-party interface is predefined in APM.
Log into the Adonis Personnel Manager. Once logged in, navigate to the Setup ribbon tab > General Codes > Miscellaneous > Interfaces and proceed with the following steps:
On the ribbon, click New to make the dialog appear:
Enter a Code (mandatory field), a unique alpha-numeric APM code.
In the Text field, indicate the name of an interface and its alternative name, if needed, in the Alternative field.
In the Sort field, define the order number of a record (where 0 means the first record in the list).
In the Is Passive field, specify whether the code is to be active or passive. Passive codes appear as disabled. Setting a code to Passive is recommended if it is no longer in use.
In the APP Modules field, select the Adonis Personal Portal module(s) where you want to use the code.
Click OK to proceed.
Log into the Adonis Personnel Manager. Once logged in, navigate to the Setup ribbon tab > General Codes and proceed with the following steps:
Select the category code to be affected (e.g. Medical Codes, Personal Detail Ranks, etc.)and click Open on the toolbar.
Switch to the XREF tab and click the Append button. Clicking the command enables the fields to be filled out:
Interface. Select the interface from the drop-down list. If the interface is unavailable, you need to define the interface by following the instructions in How to add an xref interface above.
Xref Code. Enter a cross-reference value of the 3rd party system.
Comment. Enter any comment you want to add.
When completed, click OK to apply the changes.
