Create or Copy an AAP Shell

There are three ways to approach the creation of a new AAP in The Complete AAP. Determine which of the following best suits your circumstances and use only the corresponding instructions to create your AAP:

• If your company does not have an AAP in place, or if your company has not previously used The Complete AAP to prepare an AAP, follow the instructions to Create a New Company with No Data.

• If your company prepared its last AAP in version 11 of The Complete AAP, follow the instructions in the Copy the Company and Prepare Adverse Impact and Goals Progress for New Year section of this chapter. This option transfers prior year base group totals into the adverse impact table and Goals Progress table and transfers the prior year goals into the Goals Progress table. This option also retains other helpful information that cuts down on the work involved in preparing your AAP.

• The option to Create an Exact Copy of A Company is useful if you wish to create different reporting scenarios.
