The VA Personal Record Main View (VA-P) is the main area for managing personal records in the Employee Master Database (EMD) module. It displays a list of all individuals registered in the system, including both active and inactive records. This section allows users to search, add, view, update, disable, or reactivate records, making it easier to keep employee personal information accurate and up to date.
VA Personal Record Main View

The VA Personal Record Main View provides users with an organized list of all personal records stored in the EMD. Each record displays important details such as the individual’s name, status, and available user actions. This page serves as the central point for managing personal information before linking it to employment records.
At the top of the page, a search function allows users to filter records using specific criteria such as Name. This makes it easier to quickly locate a specific record without scrolling through the full list.
Users can also adjust the number of displayed records per page through the Show Records dropdown menu, making it simple to navigate large datasets.
On the upper-right corner of the page, the Add Personal Record button enables users to create a new personal record and enter all relevant details such as name, birthdate, contact information, and address.
User Actions
For each record in the list, users are given several action buttons for managing personal data:
- Edit – Allows modifications to existing personal information such as updating contact details or correcting entries.
- Disable – Deactivates a personal record, marking it as inactive while keeping it visible in the list for tracking and reporting purposes.
- Reactivate – Re-enables a previously deactivated record, restoring it to active status and allowing further updates.
- View – Displays a disabled (inactive) record in read-only mode, ensuring historical personal information remains accessible for audit or reference purposes.
Record Status
Each record includes a Status column that indicates the current state of the personal record:
- Active-Incomplete – The person’s record is active but not yet linked to an employment record and a cohort assignment.
- Active – The person’s record is linked to an employment record and a cohort assignment.
- Inactive – The record is inactive but retained for audit and historical tracking.
