Link Actors and resources

Hi Randika, The Agent is the link between the Employee and Actor records.  An Agent record associates a prodline HROrganization and EmployeeID to an Actor record, and it is prodline specific. Once you have the Employee and Actor records created:

• use the Data Menu to go to the prodline>>person>>Agent business class
• Attach the Employee to the Actor
  • find the Employee record by filtering on the Name column using *{empnumber} (i.e. *1234567).  It will return something like "{HROrg}, {EmployeeID}" - in our case "JRS, 10040732" is my Employee Agent.
  • right click and select "Link to Actor".  You will then get a dialog to select the Actor to associate with that Agent.
• Attach the Candidate to the Actor (if you have Talent Acquisition)
  • find the Canidate record by filtering on the Name column using *{candidatenumber} (i.e. *98765432).   It will return something like "{HROrg}, {EmployeeID}" - in our case "JRS, 57690" is my Candidate Agent.
  • right click and select "Link to Actor". You will then get a dialog to select the Actor to associate with that Agent.

To remove an existing Agent relationship:

• Find the record
• right-click and "Unlink Agent" to do only that agent record
• OR right-click and "Unlink from Actor" to remove all Agents for that Actor.

I hope this is helpful. Kelly

If so, look at KB 1195256 Here's a quick version from it: Description: How do I link an Actor record to their Employee Agent record in Lawson Talent Management?
