Special Considerations
When joining this data to other appointment data views please consider the following:

  1. You may want to change the join properties so that you get back all the employees not just those with a Heritage Code on file (i.e. left join)
  2. You will need to use the Effective and End Dates of the Heritage Codes to make sure you are selecting the correct time period of interest.
