Time Configuration When Terminate Today Is on the Same Day or a Future Day, and Rehire Is a Future Day

Today you terminate someone's employment and rehire them with an employment termination date of today, or a future day. The rehire date is a future day.

Best Practice Configuration

The group membership configuration has the person continue as a member of relevant HCM groups even after the employment termination date. The group membership keeps the person automatically associated with active time entry and processing profiles that include those HCM groups. Starting on the rehire date, the active employee changes HCM group memberships because of the new job. The membership change can be manual or automatic, according to group inclusion and exclusion conditions. The change in group membership automatically changes the time entry and processing profiles that the active employee is associated with.

Functional Tasks Supported by This Configuration

Here's what happens before and after the employment termination date, and before the rehire date:

  • Everyone with the appropriate privileges, and scheduled processes, can create, edit, delete, and submit time cards for the person. This protects the sensitive period so that the person can't detect a future employment termination entered in Global HR. Between the employment termination and rehire dates, managers with the appropriate privileges can adjust and resubmit.
  • Approval, rejection, and informational notifications get sent automatically to recipients when the person's time cards get submitted. Task configurations for the time card approval workflows identify the recipients.

Before the employment termination date, administrators for applicable time consumers, such as payroll, transfer the approved time data. The person's configurations for the time consumer set and the time card approval workflows decide time data approval. After the employment termination date and before the rehire date, they can't transfer the approved time data.

Here's what happens after the rehire date:

  • Everyone with the appropriate privileges, and scheduled processes, can create, edit, delete, and submit time cards for the person in the new job.
  • Approval, rejection, and informational notifications get sent automatically to recipients when the person's time cards get submitted. Task configurations for the time card approval workflows identify the recipients.
  • Administrators for applicable time consumers, such as payroll, transfer the approved time data. The person's new time consumer set configuration and the time card approval workflow task configurations decide time data approval.
