Employer Step

Employer is a category of Optional Steps, which is accessed from the Configuration () page in the VETenrol Admin.

These settings apply to the Employer step in the standard registration process, where users can indicate they're employed and provide details for their employer.

Key aspects of the Employer category:

• Employer step options section
• Save
  This button commits any changes to the settings. It appears to the right of the navigation area and at the bottom of the page. Saving will keep changes to settings made across tabs.

Employer step options

First, control if the step will be included in the registration process:

• Enable Employer step

Then, the individual options are:

• Mandate collection of employer details
• VETtrak employers auto-complete
• Only allow registered employers
• Do not include ABN question
• Do not include Employer Contact question
• Include Positions list question
• Allow free-form positions
• Do not include Payroll ID question
• Mandate collection of Payroll ID

Enable Employer step

This option enables the step in the registration process.

• If the option is ticked () other settings relating to the step will become available.
• If the option is unticked () the step will not be part of the registration process.

Enable Employer step (  ) without any other options ticked

Mandate collection of employer details

Removes the user's option to indicate they are employed and enforces completion of the required fields for the step.

Important: If the Employer field is set in VETtrak for the occurrence the user is registering into, VETenrol will attempt to prefill that employer's details. The prefill will be successful when collection is mandated, as the Employer Step fields will not be disabled by default.

VETtrak employers auto-complete

This option sets the Business Name field to search all Employers in VETtrak when a user begins typing a business name. The user can select the employer from the drop-down list of search results.

Only allow registered employers

This option limits the Business Name field to a drop-down menu of preset Employers and pre-fills the other fields when the user selects one.

Do not include ABN question

This option removes the ABN field.

Do not include Employer Contact question

This option removes the Contact Name field.

Positions

The Include Positions list question adds Position to the Employer step. The question is optional. Users select a position from a drop-down menu where the list items are obtained from VETtrak (Configuration > Positions).

Allow free-form positions permits users to manually type their position, rather than selecting from the pre-populated list. Free-form positions are passed to VETtrak as additional data and may cause issues when Client Matching.

Include Position list question enabled (  ) without free-form positions.

Payroll ID

The Do not include Payroll ID question option removes Payroll ID from the Employer step entirely, whereas Mandate collection of Payroll ID adjusts it to be a required field.
