2583151 - Position Not Defaulting in Rehire Process - Employee Central

Symptom

  • The Hire/Rehire Configuration is enabled and in MATCHINGUSERCONFIG the option "Default Job Information during rehire" is set to YES.
  • It is working fine when performing Rehire, except for Position that is not appearing in the hire wizard.
  • The last position occupied by the employee should appear as default.

Environment

  1. You will notice that position is not filled even if the position has the value to be hired as yes.

Cause

  • This is currently an expected behavior. After a user gets terminated, that user is no longer assigned to that position.
  • When rehiring, we will not be able to see that position anymore.
  • This is irrespective of the options chosen when terminating the user. 

Resolution

  • There is no workaround for this issue.
  • It is necessary to manually enter the position value in New Hire Wizard.
