How You Reassign Direct Reports for Terminations and Resignations

If a line manager resigns or is terminated then depending on the configuration, you can reassign their direct line report types to new managers before you approve the resignation request or terminate the work relationship.

When you reassign direct reports, the reassignment is effective after the termination date plus one day with changes at the assignment level for each report.

Whether it's termination, correction of termination, or resignation you can reassign only direct line reports in these transactions. Here's what happens if the manager has line reports:

  • The Reassign Existing Reports area displays, otherwise it doesn't.

  • The direct line reports are displayed as of the termination date and not the current date.

If the manager has multiple assignments, each assignment is listed separately with the direct line reports to be reassigned.

If the manager has other types of reports such as project reports, resource reports, or mentees, you must reassign those reports before the termination effective date using the Direct Reports task.
