Remap Data Fields

From IHRIS Wiki

In version 4.1.6 of iHRIS we have introduced a new administrative feature that allows you to remap data fields. This functionality is only available to a user with the administrator's role.

The remapping data feature is part of a new "auto list" functionality that has not been fully integrated into the iHRIS software. This integration will come with the 4.2.0 release. In the meantime the functionality is still available.


Accessing the Auto List

If you are accessing your site at for example

http://localhost/ihris-manage/index.php

then you can access the "auto list" page at

http://localhost/ihris-manage/index.php/auto_list

Remapping A Field

In this example, we will suppose that we have two jobs "Registered Nurse" and "General Nurse" that have been used but they are really the same thing and we want to use "Registered Nurse" instead of "General Nurse." What we will want to do is to "remap" every form field that points to "General Nurse" to use "Registered Nurse" instead.


Selecting the Job form

Once you have accessed the auto list page, you want to go to the job form


Selecting the value to remap

Once we have selected the job form, we want to select the "General Nurse" job to remap.
