The main function of the employee grades is to allow for the employee records access to be controlled in conjunction with the location field. This control operates by checking the grade recorded on the employee records password record of the user entering the module.
Warning: If the Human Resources module is used the grades should be set up as the same in both modules since the grade held on the employee and Human resource record is automatically kept in synchronized. This is under review.
