Sometimes, when you hire someone, it is for a certain period of time and you already know when their employment will end. You want to enter them in HRMS once and not have to go back later and update their status.

Follow the steps below to do this.

• “Add” their assignment as usual, but with no ending date.
• Immediately perform the Separation Staff action. Put the employee's assignment end date as the separation effective date. Be sure to select the Employee Status Code effective upon separation.
  • Note: This “Future” employment status is saved in the system.
  • Note: Once the Separation occurs, the system will archive the assignment,the archive the separation, and update the Employee’s status.
• You will now see the Employee’s assignment ending on the date you entered.
