Veteran Status Page

HR_VETERAN_STATUS

Employees use this self-service page to enter and update self-identification veteran information.

When the employee submits the Veteran Status page, the system displays the veteran self-identify data in the Veteran group box on the Regional page in the Personal Information – Add a Person or Modify a Person component.

Administrators can update the selection on the Regional page.

Update Personal Data-Future Page

PRCSRUNCNTL

Run this process shortly after midnight to update the Personal Data component. The process will update data with new, effective information that is not currently in the component.

The Update Personal Data-Future process runs the HR_PERSDATA application engine program.

Note: The Person Search (HC_HR_PERSON) search index supports real time indexing (RTI) with PeopleTools version 8.59.07 or higher. When enabled, RTI allows real-time updates to the indexed data to provide current person search using the latest information.

For more information about Real Time Indexing, refer to PeopleTools: Search Technology, “Administering Real-Time Indexing."

When you open the Add a Person component, the system requests a person ID. There are two ways to assign IDs:

  • Automatically

    If you use automatic ID assignment, the system adds IDs sequentially as you add new people.

    The system maintains the last assigned ID on the Installation Table - Last ID Assigned page.

    See Last ID Assigned Page.

  • Manually

    You enter the IDs, using any system that you choose for the organization. With manual entry, you don't need to assign IDs sequentially.

    Assigning IDs manually is the only way that you can include alphabetical characters in the IDs.

Note: To avoid maintaining two different sets of IDs, it is recommended that you use only one method to assign them: either always assign them manually or always let the system assign them.

Description

Date of Birth

Enter the person's date of birth. If you leave this field blank, a warning message appears when you save the record. You can continue entering information after you acknowledge the message. Though the birth date isn't required for the Administer Workforce business process, the system uses it to calculate a person's age in some benefit and payroll tasks. It also calculates dates, such as the U.K. expected retirement date, based on the person's age.

Birth Country

Biographical History

Field or Control

Description

Gender

Select the person’s gender. By default, the value is set to Unknown.

Note: (BRA) You must specify the person’s gender (Male or Female) for eSocial reporting to work properly.

If the Enable Gender Identity feature is enabled on the Installation Table, this section will appear differently. See the Gender and Orientation Details section that follows for the additional field definitions.

Highest Education Level

Select a value.

Note: (JPN) For Japanese education-level age-related pay calculations, a form of seniority pay, these values are linked to an education-level age basis as of hire.

Marital Status and As of

Select the person's marital status. Values are: Common Law, Divorced, Head of Household, Married, PACS [(FRA) this field is used in France. Pacte civil de solidarité], Separated, Single, Unknown, and Widowed. When a marital status is changed, the default as of date is the same as the biographical history effective date.

PeopleSoft Payroll doesn't use the marital status that is entered on this page for tax calculations. For U.S. employees, you enter that information in Maintain Payroll Data on the Federal, State, and Local Tax pages. Taxes for Canadian employees are based on net claim amount, which varies depending on the employee status.

Note: Laws in the Netherlands require tracking effective-dated marital status information for employees.

Language Code

Select the person's native or preferred language. Although tracking official or preferred languages is required in some countries in PeopleSoft Human Resources, the system also uses the preferred language when you communicate with people with a relationship to the organization. For example, PeopleSoft Global Payroll for Germany and Switzerland use the language code to print paychecks in the payee's preferred language. Other types of communication also use this as the default language for written communication.

Note: Don't use this field to record the organization's official language or to rate a worker's proficiency in speaking, reading, or writing various languages. Use the Location Table to track the organization's official language. Use the Languages table to record a worker's language proficiency.

The Language Code field prompts from the LANG_CD table, which concerns the person's native or preferred language, and not from the LANGUAGE_CD table, which contains the languages into which the application can be translated.

Alternate ID

To use a second type of ID for a person, enter the ID.

Full-Time Student

Select if the person is a full-time student.

Biographical History: Gender and Orientation Details group box

This group box appears within the structure of the Biographical History section when Enable Gender Identity is selected on the Installation Table - HCM Options Page. This allows administrators and employees to track gender identity details in Personal Data. This functionality is delivered turned off.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Biographical Details page: Gender and Orientation Details group box.

Biographical Details: Gender and Orientation Details group box

These videos provide an overview of the gender identity functionality:

Video: Image Highlights, PeoleSoft HCM Update Image 41: Gender Identity and Expression

Video: PeopleSoft Gender Identity and Expression

When you or a manager approves a gender identity update from an employee, the system will insert a new Biographical History effective dated row. However, if you do not allow the employee to update and submit gender details, you need to insert a new Biographical History effective dated row to retain historical information. See also Pending Approvals - Gender Identity Change Page.

Gender details are specific to an individual and a person can choose to identify all gender details or just a few. The Gender, or Current Sex, field (the label may vary depending on the configuration of this field label on the Gender Configuration Page) is the only required field. Employees can update their own details on the fluid self service Personal Details - Gender Details Page when they have been assigned the Fluid Dashboard - Person Dtls role and granted access to update the fields. Employees must also be part of a regulatory region that is configured for gender identity (see configuration on the Gender Details Page).

Note: Unless otherwise noted, the values for these fields are defined on the setup Gender Details Page.

Field or Control

Description

Regulatory Region

Enter a region that is configured for gender identification. After you exit this field, the additional gender fields will appear in the group box. The valid values for the remaining fields are based on the regulatory region you enter here.

Important! The regulatory region for gender details should align with the regulatory region assigned to a person's primary job on the Work Location Page.

The employee self service Gender Identity Page and Gender Details Page use the regulatory region from Job Data to manage gender details. If this region varies from that in Job Data, the Gender Identity page will display the current information from this section. However, the employee will not be able to edit information that is tied to a regulatory region different from that stored in Job Data. Instead, the page will display an + (Add) button for the employee to enter gender details using the regulatory region associated with the employee's primary job.

Gender or Current Sex (label name may vary)

This is the only required field in the Gender and Orientation Details group box.

Select the person’s current sex. By default, the value is set to Unknown. Valid values come from the translate table and are not tied to region.

Note: This field label comes delivered as Gender but is configurable on the Gender Configuration Page. Current Sex is the new label delivered by default, but this value can also be overwritten.

<><gender field label> List Information icon <gender field label> List Information icon

Pronoun

Select the pronouns this person prefers to be called.

Note: When you enter this information, and the system is configured to show pronouns, the pronouns will display next to the employee's name on the Company Directory - Profile pages in fluid (see Using the PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface for the Company Directory).

To configure the Company Directory to display pronouns in fluid, see the Chart and Profile Settings - Profile Content Page.

Sexual Orientation

Enter this individuals inherent attraction to a sexual partner of a certain gender.

Gender Identity

Enter the person's inner sense or self perception of being male, female, a blend of both or neither. One's gender identity can be the same or different from their sex assigned at birth or current sex.

Considerations when Entering Gender and Orientation Details

Since gender information is driven by region and an administrator's security access, there are situations that will impact what gender fields you can access.

Assuming all setup has been done to support recording gender details, consider the following scenarios in regards to the regulatory region assigned to the employee on the Job Data - Work Location Page and your security access:

  • You have row level and global security access to a region configured for gender identification (for example, USA). You can:

    • Search for employees in the USA regulatory region.

    • See and select USA as a regulatory region within Biographical History: Gender and Orientation Details section of Personal Data.

    • See the gender identity fields for the USA region.

    • See the modified Gender label as Current Sex, if applicable.

  • You have row level and global security access to a region configured for gender identification and one not configured for gender identification (for example, USA and MYS respectively). You can:

    • Search for employees in the USA and MYS regions.

    • See the gender identity fields for USA employees and see the modified Gender label as Current Sex, if applicable.

    • NOT see the gender identity fields for MYS employees, or see the modified Gender label as Current Sex, if configured as such.

  • You have row level security for USA (which is configured for gender identification) and MYS (which is not configured for gender identification), but you have global security for MYS only. You can:

    • Search for employees in the USA and MYS regions.

    • NOT see the gender identity fields for USA employees in person data, or see the modified Gender label as Current Sex, due to global security.

    • NOT see the gender identity fields for MYS employees in personal data, or see the modified Gender label as Current Sex, due to MYS not being a gender configured region.

National ID

Field or Control

Description

Country

Select the country that issued the worker's national ID.

National ID Type

The system enters the value that you establish for this country on the National ID Type Table page. You can override this default.

Note: (BRA) Add rows to enter one or more of the following IDs for the person: CAIXA, CPF - Person Registry, CTPS - Work Card, Civil Registry ID, Class Entity Registration, Foreigner ID, General Registry, Health National Card, Militar Certificate, NIT Number, New Born ID, PASEP, PIS, and Voter Registration Card.

Note: (BRA) Changes made to a Brazilian person's CTPS - Work Card and PIS national ID types will be recorded on the National ID History page.

National ID

Enter the worker's national ID number. The system checks the format of the entry against the default format that you enter on the National ID Type Table page.

(GBR) For the U.K. the normal format of two letters followed by six digits and then one letter for National Insurance identification appears by default. Other options that are dependent on employee status are available.

(GBR) When you enter a national insurance number, the system uses the NID Prefix GBR page to check that you have entered a valid national insurance prefix. You can't save this page if you have entered an invalid national insurance prefix.

Primary ID

Select if the national ID is the person's primary ID. If this is the only data row for this person, the system selects the check box by default. You can deselect it.

Tax Ref

(SGP) Select if the worker's national registration ID is used as the person's employer tax reference number. This field is for information only.

National ID Expiry Date

(CAN) Enter the expiration date for this National ID.

(CAN) Verifying Social Insurance Numbers for Canadian Employees

Invoke a modulus 10-check digit formula to verify an employee's social insurance number (SIN), if needed. The formula follows federal standards for using the ninth digit in an employee SIN to verify the number.

If you enter an employee SIN that doesn't match the check digit that is calculated by the formula, an error message appears.

(NLD) Verifying Social Security IDs for Dutch Employees

The Dutch national ID is commonly called the SoFi (Social/Fiscal) number. You can invoke the 11-check digit formula to verify a Dutch employee's SoFi number. The 11-check formula is a mathematical formula that evaluates the entry for the employee's social security ID and verifies that the result of the calculation is 11, to determine whether the national insurance/social security ID has a valid format.

(USA) Reporting to Government Agencies When the Social Security Number Is Unknown

When the social security number (SSN) is missing, the system enters the default number that is defined on the National ID Type table, usually all 9s. However, reports and files that are created by PeopleSoft Payroll for North America for submission to government agencies, such as the IRS or Social Security Administration, convert missing or unknown SSNs to the specific format that is required by the government agency. For example, a missing or unknown SSN is reported to the IRS using all zeros on the W-2 file.

Expected Retirement Date

The system calculates and displays this value, based on the system date and the birth date that you enter on this page. This field is for information only; you can't change it.

A person's expected retirement date is based on the birth date that you enter on the Name/Location page. For men in the U.K., the expected retirement date is always the 65th birthday. For women, it is the 60th birthday. The British government is introducing measures to raise the state pension age for women. The retirement age for women will gradually increase to 65 years between 2010 and 2020. This table shows the expected retirement dates for women in the U.K.:

Birth Date

Expected Retirement Age

Before April 6, 1950.

After April 6, 1950 and before April 6, 1955.

Retirement date is delayed one month for each month that the woman is born after April 6, 1950.

After April 6, 1955.
