An action code may vary too depending upon other job changes related to the rank change, such as promotion or department transfer.

PeopleSoft Human Resources Manage Profiles manages the attributes of jobs or individuals. Typically, profiles summarize the competencies, qualifications, and skills of a job or a person as well as a service member's military ranks. The profile search and compare features enable you to perform searches for profiles that match user-defined criteria and easily compare profiles.
In order to keep military rank profiles up to date with Job Data, use the Refresh Names and Profiles MIL process (MIL_NAME_BLD). The system uses the HCM Event Manager to raise an event when a change to an assignment's military rank has occurred and execute this change.
The following prerequisites must be in place prior to running the Refresh Names and Profiles MIL process:
The Integration Broker must be active.
In HCM Event Manager, the event AssignmentMilitaryRankChanged must be active.
