Note:

  • Updating OCI manually is not intended functionality. If you need to change the Hire date, then it should be triggered and propagated from an Onboarding 1.0 process flow.
  • Once Onboarding process is finished, after update OCI this new data will not synchronize with data in Super Admin due there is no integration anymore. This new data will be only reference to the candidate in MPH for example, change of manager.
