Personnel > Maintenance > Staff Demo > Credentials

This tab contains the following employee information categories: education, certification, special credentials, permit, and permit area. The categories contain specific details about where the degree was received, as well as specifics about the certificates and special permits obtained by the employee.

This data is retrieved from the Personnel > Tables > Credential tabs.

The Teaching Specialization field is a PEIMS Reporting Element if it is associated with a PEIMS PK Teacher Requirement. Per TEA, if an LEA offers a four-year-old prekindergarten program, the program is considered a high-quality prekindergarten program. For additional information about the High-Quality Prekindergarten Program, review TEA website: https://tea.texas.gov/Academics/Early_Childhood_Education/High-Quality_Prekindergarten_Program/.

Personnel > Maintenance > Staff Demo > Verification

This tab displays employee demographic information in addition to hiring, contract, and salary data. (Contract and salary data is based on the current logged-on pay frequency.)

Employee data on this page is display only for verification purposes and cannot be changed. Use the applicable maintenance pages to make changes.

Personnel > Maintenance > Staff Demo > Insurance

This tab contains insurance information for the employee. The data includes the insurance company, the plan type, coverage information, the individuals covered by the plan, and the demographics of the covered dependents.

Since ACA is reported over a calendar year, some employees may have multiple rows if they changed insurance companies during the last enrollment period and you added insurance codes for each plan.

If this data is maintained throughout the calendar year for all applicable employees, you can use the Personnel > Utilities > Extract Insurance Data to 1095 Data page to extract insurance data from this tab to the Personnel > Maintenance > ACA 1095 YTD Data maintenance page(s). Most data will populate accurately; however, there are some records that may require manual edits.

Personnel > Maintenance > Staff Demo > Service Record

This tab contains service information for the employee. The data includes specific positions held, years of experience, service dates, as well as state and personal leave information. An employee may have multiple service records.

Personnel > Maintenance > Staff Demo > Responsibility

This tab is used to maintain job responsibility records for employees, which is used for state reporting purposes. Although responsibility records retrieve the necessary data from the Master Schedule for most classroom teachers, other employees such as administrators and classroom aides must be manually entered on this tab. Employees who have responsibilities at more than one campus, assume more than one role, and/or perform more than one type of service will have multiple records.

See the Quick Reference by Professional or Auxiliary Role ID for additional information.

Note: If you need to delete a responsibility record for multiple employees, use the Personnel > Utilities > Mass Delete > Responsibility Data page.
