Worker Nicknames

Set up Nicknames for Workers

When setting up workers in Human resources > Workers > Workers, you can define a nickname for each worker in the Known as column.

Using nicknames helps validate and select the correct worker, especially when multiple workers have similar names.

When assigning workers as a resource in a maintenance request or work order under the field Responsible (see screenshot 01), or as a resource under the field Planner (see screenshot 02), or when assigning a worker in a maintenance worker group, the Known as field will be displayed along with the worker name during search lookups. This makes it easier to quickly identify and select the correct worker.

01: Maintenance request page displaying the nickname in the field 'Known as', while selecting a worker in 'Responsible' field.

02: Maintenance request page displaying the nickname in the field 'Known as', while selecting a worker in 'Planner' field.
