Designation

A job title for employees. No ledger effect.

In detail

A Designation is a job title such as Accountant, Driver or Tour Guide that is stored on each Employee record. It is a plain list with no accounts and no ledger effect. Designations appear on employee reports, appointment letters and the organisation chart, and the Social Security Fund filings ask for them. Keep the list short and consistent, with one spelling per role, because every variation becomes a separate entry in reports. It is created once during setup and rarely changes.
