About Reversing Terminations
When reversing a termination, any work relationships and assignments previously ended are restored with the statuses prior to the termination. If a primary work relationship or assignment became non-primary during the termination, it's changed back to primary when the termination is reversed.
HR specialists and line managers can use either the Termination (version 2 (V2)) or Terminate Employment (version 3 (V3)) quick action on the My Client Groups and My Team tabs respectively for reversing a termination. You can search for the terminated worker, and click Reverse on the View Termination page. Line managers can reverse the termination, provided it's in the future and they have the privilege to do so.
What Happens to Roles and User Access
-
Any roles automatically provisioned to the person at termination (Beneficiary, for example) are automatically deprovisioned.
-
Any roles deprovisioned either manually or automatically at termination are provisioned again.
-
If the person's user account was disabled at termination, it's re-enabled.
Changes Before and After Termination
If any employment-related actions or changes took place before the termination, they're applied back when you reverse the termination. But any future-dated changes taking place after the termination aren't restored. Let's say the employee's department was end-dated after his termination and all employees were relocated to another department. The reversal of the termination restores the end-dated department and not the new department. An employee's line manager isn't automatically restored when you reverse the termination. You must manually add the employee back under the line manager hierarchy by running the Refresh Manager hierarchy process with parameter 0. It's important to manually verify the employment data after reversing a termination and make the required changes.
Restriction for Reversing a Termination
You can't reverse the termination if the same legal employer has rehired the worker at the same time. Let's say you terminated an employee on April 15 and rehired the employee with the same legal employer on May 1. You try to reverse the termination on May 15. You can't do so because this causes the person to have two concurrent employee work relationships with the same legal employer.
