Setting Up the Reclassification Process
The reclassification process relies on the reclassification ID. This ID establishes which circumstances result in reclassification and the effects of the reclassification. This data is stored in the Reclassification table.
This section discusses how to set up the reclassification process.

---|---|---|
FPMCONVTABL_PNL1 |
Specify the grade, step, action, and reason that are required for reclassification. |
|
FPMCONVTABL_PNL2 |
Enter the criteria and requirements before reclassification for each option in each grade and step that is affected. |
|
FPMCONVTABL_PNL3 |
Enter the grade and step after reclassification. Define the seniority correction formula. |
Use the Reclassification General Info (reclassification general information) page (FPMCONVTABL_PNL1) to specify the grade, step, action, and reason that are required for reclassification.

Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Grade |
Enter the value before reclassification. |
Step |
Enter the value before reclassification. |
Serial Number |
Enter the serial number if there are several possible reclassifications for the selected grade and step. The lowest serial number is assigned to the reclassification that is most beneficial to the employee. The system checks whether an employee meets the criteria for the lowest serial number. If criteria are not met, the system reviews the criteria for serial numbers in ascending order. |
Order Date |
Enter the date on which the government issued the order that defines the rules of the reclassification. |
Action and Reason Code |
Enter the action code and reason that qualify for the reclassification. |
Use the Reclassification Criteria page (FPMCONVTABL_PNL2) to enter the criteria and requirements before reclassification for each option in each grade and step that is affected.

Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Actual Min Seniority |
Specify the actual minimum seniority used to determine if an employee meets the criteria for reclassification. The employee meets the criteria if his actual step seniority is higher than the Actual Min Seniority entered here. |
Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Actual Max Seniority |
Specify the actual maximum seniority used to determine if an employee meets the criteria for reclassification. The employee meets the criteria if his actual step seniority is smaller than the Actual Max Seniority entered here. |
Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Step Seniority |
Specify the step seniority. The employee meets the criteria if his step seniority is higher than the step seniority defined here. |
Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Employment Date Before |
Specify an employment date before date. The employee meets the criteria if his hire date is smaller than, or before, the employment date before date. This is based on the first effective date of the employee record. |
Field or Control |
Description |
---|---|
Employment Date After |
Specify an employment date after date. The employee meets the criteria if his hire date is greater than, or after, the employment date after date. |
Minimum Age |
Specify a minimum age. The employee meets the criteria if his age is greater than the minimum age entered here. |
Minimum Rating |
Specify a minimum rating. The employee meets the criteria if he has a rating higher than the one defined here (based on the last employee review). |
All conditions displayed on this page are optional.
Use the Reclassification - New Grade page (FPMCONVTABL_PNL3) to enter the grade and step after reclassification.
Define the seniority correction formula.

Description |
---|---|
Grade |
Enter the value after reclassification. |
Step |
Enter the value after reclassification. |
Probationary Period |
Select if required in the new grade. |
Corrections - Seniority |
After reclassification, the employee's seniority is corrected by applying this formula: Step seniority after reclassification = step seniority before reclassification × multiplier + reduction in step duration in years, months, and days. |
Multiplier |
This is the factor applied to the seniority before reclassification to calculate the seniority after reclassification. Value is 1 when 100 percent seniority is retrieved, 0.5 when 50 percent is retrieved, and so on. |
Bonus and Seniority |
Enter the year/month/day for the bonus and seniority. After reclassification, the step seniority that the employee acquired before the reclassification can be converted as follows: Seniority after reclassification = (multiplier * seniority before) + bonus. |
