This section will discuss how to manage classification within your projects.  PRISM manages the classifications assigned to a contact.  Vendors can only utilize classifications that a jurisdiction has assigned to a contract.  Vendors will assign these classifications to their employees and subsequently a payroll.  This gives a jurisdiction a tremendous amount of control and restricts vendors from using classifications that a jurisdiction has not approved thus creating questionable data during an audit.

PRISM allows a jurisdiction to:

Assign a classification to a contract

Add a custom classification

Remove a classification

The Manage Classification functionality can be found in the Labor Management (Payrolls) capability not the labor management configuration.

To navigate to Manage Classification perform the following:

1.From the Labor Management contract list, select "Contract Classifications" from the small hamburger menu

Although wage decisions are available for a jurisdiction, you certainly do not want all of the classifications associated with a wage decision on a contract.  This creates a long list of items for you and vendors to review when reporting and creates a poor on-line experience.  A better way to work is to review wage decisions and assigned the classifications you wish to work with to a contract.  This creates a finite list of items for your vendor to choose from and removes all ambiguity from the process.   PRISM facilitates this by providing a screen that will present all of your wage decisions and classifications.  This allows you to assign a classification to a contract.

To assign a Classification to a Contract,

1.From the labor management contract listing, select "Contract Classifications" from the small hamburger menu (above screen appears)

2.Use the two drop down list to search for wage decisions or crafts

3.Click the "Search" button

4.Identify the targeted classification and click the "Make Assignment" button.

Note: By default the initial list will be populated with classifications that are already assigned to the contract.  When performing a search, the list is regenerated with the search results.  Classifications already assigned to the contract will still appear in green.
