5. NullOrEmptyPerPersonUUID

• Starting in version b1608, a new field - perpersonUUID - was added to the per_person table and its entity object.
• The perpersonUUID field is populated during the New Hire process with a unique immutable id which is not available for reporting and is not exposed in any UI.
• This change was done to facilitate future suite integration.
• For per_person records created prior to release b1608, the UUID field is empty.
• When running the Check Tool "NullOrEmptyPerPersonUUID", these empty UUID fields will be flagged
