1. Proxy as the designated user.
2. Navigate to the manager's profile.
3. Initiate the termination process for the manager.
4. Select a termination date 
5. Observe the transfer direct reports section being triggered, despite the absence of active subordinates.

Employment Status is as Retired, the system doesn't recognize that is terminated so the retired employee is still part of the Position Hierarchy.

Retired is not the same as Terminated.

If the employment hasn't been terminated (there was no effective termination), the person continues to exist as an "employee" in Position Management, only with retired status.

Therefore, the system still recognizes the retiree's position that should be transferred and still offers the option of Transfer Direct Reports if the Manager is going to be terminated.
