Character Limits

When creating a new employee, please keep the following character limits & requirements in mind:

First Name: Can include letters, numbers, special characters, and spaces. A minimum of one character is required and there is a limit of 50 characters.

Last Name: Can include letters, numbers, special characters, and spaces. A minimum of one character is required and there is a limit of 50 characters.

Email: Emails are required for each employee. If an employee doesn't have an email, an Admin can use their own or any other email. Emails are typically only used in the event an employee needs to reset their password - it is not used to access their account.

Username: Can include letters, numbers, special characters, and spaces. A minimum of one character is required, and there is a limit of 100 characters.

Password: Can include letters, numbers, special characters, and spaces. Must include at least one letter. A minimum of 6 characters is required, and there is no character limit.
