Cause

There are two countries related to an employee: employment country and country of his/her assigned org unit

Only time models could be assigned to employees,  in which the employees are originally hired. Every time model must be assigned to a country when created.

Therefore it is not possible to hire e. g. a Germany employee and to assign the employee to another country time model even the organization unit is assigned or belonged to another country and the employee should be employed according to time model.

Resolution

If appropriate you might have to terminate and rehire the employee from the required Country to get the appropriate time model for employee assigned.

  1. Go to the Personnel Administration - Regular Tasks view.
  2. Select the required Country tab.
  3. Click Rehire Employee.

In Personal Administration WOC in the Employees View you could filter in employment for country (Advanced Filter Option). In Personal Administration WOC in Regular Tasks View you could hire employees for different countries, (if scoped).
