In the system, you can perform the re-admission of an employee who previously left your company using a personnel action.
All of the infotypes that you have process when rehiring someone appear automatically and sequentially in the Reentry into Company personnel action.
When an employee who previously left your company reenters it, a data record is stored in the Actions (0000) infotype when you perform the Reentry into Company personnel action. You store the date and the reason for reentering the company in this infotype record, amongst other things.
As all of the previously valid data for an employee remains in the system even after he or she has left the company, you have to enter a lot less data when he or she reenters the company, than you did at initial hiring. You only need to overwrite the employee data that has changed in the meantime.
If the Personnel Administration component is integrated with the Organizational Management component, you can link the data about the employee’s organizational assignment in Organizational Management to the data about the position. This relationship determines how the Actions (0000) and 0001 Organizational Assignment (0001) infotypes are processed.
