Payroll Relationship and Rehires for Mexico

When you rehire a person, the application adds the new assignment to the original payroll relationship or creates a new payroll relationship.

The behavior of the application depends on the legislative rules of your country.

Mexico supports the Continuous Period of Service rule for payroll relationships. When you create a work assignment, the application looks for an active payroll relationship of the same payroll relationship type and payroll statutory unit. If it exists, the new work assignment is attached to it; otherwise, a new payroll relationship is created.

When you terminate a work assignment, the associated payroll relationship remains active even though it doesn't have a work assignment associated with it. In the case of a rehire, the new work assignment is attached to an existing active payroll relationship and the existing balances are updated.

Note: These rules only apply to rehires that exist for the same person type such as employee and PSU as the original employment. The application creates a new payroll relationship for any rehires that exist for a different person type or PSU.
