Symptom
What does Previous Employment ID (prevEmployeeID) in Employment Information section does?
Detail as provided in Employee Central Date Object Tables Reference Guide:
Environment
Employee Central - Rehire / Hire
Employee Central - Job Information
Employee Central - Employment Information
Reproducing the Issue
Previous Employment ID is available under employment information section while doing Rehire / Hire
it is then shown in employment details section where hire details are maintained
Resolution
- We verified with our Core Engineering team and were informed that previous employment ID is just a plain text field. It doesn’t have any logic or associations
- So when doing re-hiring with new employment ID, you have to manually maintain this field (you need to first know, what is old employment ID and then enter this in new employment details)
- This field is just a reference, if you want to search the previous employment of this employee, you can just refer to this field and search inactive employee with same ID and see the details
- This will NOT link two profiles in any way, it is just another field where you can put/maintain an old ID as reference, if needed in future
