PA52.4 – Hire an Applicant

About PA52.4

Use Hire an Applicant (PA52.4) to select the actions you want to perform when you employ an applicant. You can choose up to ten actions that update the Employee (HR11.1) record. **Processing Effect If you choose more than one action, the system combines all actions before it employs the applicant. If two or more actions have the same data items associated with them, the system uses the fields from the action with the largest number in the Nbr field on this form. If you select the Fill Defaults form action, the current defaults for the position or requisition display. Depending on how you set up position defaults in HR10.1 (Data Item Attributes), you cannot override some of these defaults. PA52.4 either updates Employee (HR11.1) immediately or is pending; you can change a pending action before it updates HR11.1. Run Action Update(PA100) to employ applicants with pending hire actions. If you use position codes, you must include all your defaulted fields on one action because the system checks the position to make sure no override fields are filled in. Lawson recommends that Position be part of theapplicant's first action. If you use multiple pending actions, you must include process level as a data item in the first action. This form checks the first action todetermine the new employee's work country, which is defined on the process level. Fields that you define as required on Data Item Attributes (HR10.1) are required on this form.
