Use

Contains the employee's National Insurance number which is a government issued unique reference to GB citizens.

Procedure

The employee's N.I. number should be on the P45 given to the personnel department by the employee when they commence employment.

If the employee does not know their N.I. number then it is possible to store a temporary number until the correct number is known. The system will generate a temporary number when a '*' character is input in the screen field.

Examples

The N.I. number is 9 characters in length:

2 alpha characters, followed by
6 numeric charaters, followed by
1 alpha character.

Where desired a temporary number will be generated as follows:

TNxxyyzz% where

TN is fixed signifying a temporary number,
xxyyzz is the employee's day, month and year of birth respectively and
% will be 'M' or 'F' depending on the employee's gender.
