Reason Codes on Separation Transactions
There are two Reason codes that appear in a Separation transaction: the Job
Change Reason and the Separation Reason. On the first screen of the Separation
wizard, you are asked to choose a Job Change Reason. Not all Job Change Reasons
have a one-to-one correspondence with the Separation Reason in the Separations
tab. Therefore, when you reach the Employee Record View you should check the
Separations tab to see if the Separation Reason has defaulted. If there is not
one specific Separation Reason that corresponds to the Job Change Reason you
selected in the wizard, the Separation Reason defaults to 'Select One'. In this
case, you need to choose a Separation Reason from the list in the Separations
tab before continuing with the transaction.
Transaction Enabled Date 01/01/1900 on Separations
When Separating an employee with an unpaid appointment, the HR Front End sets
the Transaction Enabled Date to 01/01/1900 to ensure that the transaction does
not hibernate. Only transactions where final regular pay for the employee needs
to be processed should go into hibernation.
