Symptom
With the Global Assignment Management function, you can send an employee on a global assignment to another company.
The administrator or manager can add a global assignment for an employee. Once the global assignment is active, there is one home and one host employment for this employee (which are also called 'expatriate' for the time of their global assignment). During the duration of the global assignment, the home employment can be marked as 'dormant' to indicate the employee is away. Note that marking the home employment as 'dormant' will not inactivate it, that is it will continue to remain active.
