To terminate an employee from your company, you must schedule the employee for termination in the Time & Attendance module. The employee is "marked" for termination but is not actually terminated until payroll is run for the pay period containing the employee's termination date and the pay period is closed. At that time, the employee's status becomes "terminated" and the employee no longer appears in any area of the Time & Attendance module (other than the list of terminated employees). Until the pay period containing the scheduled termination date is closed, the employee continues to appear in the system.

After an employee's status changes to terminated, you can still view the employee’s basic information on the Terminated Employee Positions page. You can also view and edit the employee’s security group settings. If the employee rejoins the company, you can reactivate the employee's old record so that you do not have to re-enter the employee's data.

Notes:
As a practitioner, you can only schedule employees for termination or reactivate already-terminated employees who belong to security groups to which you have access.

In the Time & Attendance module, the words "terminated" and "termination" are applied to all employees who leave a company, regardless of whether they leave voluntarily or involuntarily.

As a practitioner, you can perform the following tasks related to terminating and reactivating employees:

• Terminate Employees

• View Terminated Employees

• Change a Terminated Employee's Date

• Edit Terminated Employees' Security Groups

• Reactivate Terminated Employees
