Person Number Generation Modification for Automatic Upon Final Save in Redwood

When using the Person Number Generation Method set to Automatic Upon Final Save with approvals enabled for the Redwood add person pages, the Person Number, Assignment Number, Payroll Relationship Number, and Contract Number weren’t the same. In the Responsive or Classic add person pages, these numbers are the same. This difference has been corrected in Redwood. During the addition process, a temporary random person number is assigned to the person until the final approvals are received. After the final approval, the final number is assigned appropriately. The temporary random person number has the format TEMP123456790123, and it’s displayed in the approval notification.  

If the user enters an Assignment Number or Contract Number during the add person process, the numbers entered will be honored.

This enhancement for the Redwood pages replicates the original Responsive and Classic feature of keeping the Person Number the same as the Assignment Number, Payroll Relationship Number, and Contract Number.
