    Number Of Contracts

    The number of Contracts to generate for each employee.

    Percentage Of Inactive Persons

    Percentage of employees with only Inactive contracts.

    Naming Convention

    Change how employees' Display names are formatted.

    Number Of Departments

    The number of Departments to generate.

    Percentage Of Departments With A Parent Department

    The percentage of Departments with a ParentExternalId defined. For more information, see Departments import script.

    Generation Seed

    An integer that determines the RNG seed used to generate the example data. Typically only needs to be changed if you have multiple HR generator systems, and you want them to have different data.

  7. Go to the Person and/or Contract tabs to Map person/contract fields.

  8. Run a manual import to initially import the system.
