Set Employee Status

Explanation

This activity is used to assign an employee status to an employee and to specify how status changes should become effective for the employee. You can do this by specifying the status code and the date on which it should be effective for the employee.

• If there is no status code valid for the employee on the system date, the status code defined as the preliminary status in the company will apply to the employee.
