The Employee View presents information regarding each employee, their review dates, last salary increase, etc.  It is intended as a simple human resource module.  

The Employee Window opens with a list of all active employees appearing at the bottom of the Search Frame.  Clicking on one of these records causes that bond to appear in the focus frame.  To create a new  employee record, click Insert New Record in the Search Frame.  To edit the existing record, click Edit in the Focus Frame.  Note that in order for an employee to use BARS, they must have a User record set up as well as an employee record.
