3688649 - Hire Record is created in Job Information after changing Higher-Level Position

After changing the higher-level position via Manage Positions or via Odata API or via an import, the system is creating a Hire record for the supervisor change in Job Information. The same issue can occur even after any other follow-up processing that is done by Position Management (for e.g., transfer of direct reports when a manager change occurs). 

Pre-requisites: 

• A business rule to automatically set the event reason on initiating the Onboarding process has been set up as per the Configuring Business Rule for Event Reason section of the handbook.
• Event Reason Derivation is enabled

This issue is occurring even though the rule context is enabled only for Onboarding.
