PA52.5 – Position and Job Action

About PA52.5

Use Position and Job Action (PA52.5) to implement position or job actions for an employee. PA52.5 is the only action form on which you can change information for Levels 2 through 98. You can add comments associated with a personnel action. When you save an immediate action, the comments subform appears. If the action is updated immediately, you can only add the comments once and may not access them again. When you save a pending action, you can choose the Comments button to define comments about the action. You can maintain comments until you run Action Update (PA100) and update the action. **Processing Effect PA52.5 updates Employee (HR11.1) with primary (Level 1) position or job information and Multiple Positions, Jobs (PA13.1) with Level 1 through 98 position or job information. An action either updates these formsimmediately or is pending; you can change a pending action before it updates the forms. To update HR11.1 and PA13.1 with a pending action, run PA100 (ActionUpdate). The system validates fields in HR11.1 and PA13.1 and a personnel action the same way. This form does not update Multiple Position, Job History (PA13.2). If you select the Fill Defaults form action, current defaults for the position display. Depending on how you set up position defaults in Position Item Attributes (HR10.2) you cannot override some of these defaults. Inaddition, some fields apply only to primary (Level 1) positions. If HR10.2 topic POitems are set to 3 (Default;No Override), the PA50.1 action should include ALL "default;no override" fields on any action where theychange a position. Use PA52.5 to automatically start and stop required deductions for the employee. Employees are eligible for required deductions if they meet the criteria defined on Deduction Required Code (PR03.1). If you use the Benefits system and the action you are adding is a COBRA occurrence, the action creates a COBRA participant record in BN70.1 (COBRA Participant). For information on occurrences and COBRA, see the Benefits User Guide.

More information: Special processing functionality is available. Override the history correction method defined on Action (PA50.1) or the company default set on HR00 when correcting employee history files with retroactive changes. Change the effective date of a pending action by entering a new effective date.Reverse an action that has been updated. Combine this action with a previously updated action. Move information from another position level into this level.
