Dear Viewpoint Suggestion Box contributor;
We at Viewpoint sincerely thank you for your contribution to Suggestion Box on how we can improve Viewpoint products. While we can’t do everything at once, we rely upon your feedback to help guide the prioritization of our product improvements, and Suggestion Box is a critical tool for us to understand and prioritize our customers’ needs.
Viewpoint reviews Suggestion Box regularly for all of our products and updates statuses, adds comments, and performs various house-keeping (including deleting) as needed to ensure that Suggestion Box is maintained as a productive environment for product enhancements requests.
We, as are many Vista customers, have (or are) moving our HR process to UKG. UKG provides for a 7 character employee number allowing for employee numbers to exceed 999,999. We sync our Vista employee numbers to UKG so employees have a single employee number, for both HR and Payroll. Our UKG platform supports our entire corporate enterprise. With turnover, we expect UKG employee numbers to exceed 6 digits within 3 years.
The Vista HR Resource number and PR Employee number both have an input length of 15 but the input mask allows only 6. This should be an easy fix as it is just a forms change (maybe).
