Initiating a Personnel Action Change or Termination
To initiate a personnel action change or a termination perform the following steps:
Enter the Personnel Action Wizard (PACTW)
To begin a new session or resume a previous session, perform the following:
Access the wizard via PACTW and enter the appropriate information in the fields at the top of the page.
Select the Processing Mode:
Standard - the batch processing runs on demand and can be scheduled to run at pre-defined intervals, such as nightly.
Immediate - ESMT automatically schedules the batch processing.
At the bottom of the page, the Open Previous Personnel Action Requests grid lists all existing ‘incomplete’ wizard sessions. You may also select the following options:
Open Previous - Opens a previous Personnel Action Wizard session. You may continue with this previous wizard session.
Delete Previous - Deletes a previous Personnel Action Wizard session.
If there are future-dated ESMT records (for example, the ESMT From date is after the ESMT Effective Date entered on PACTW) for all appointments of the terminated employee, an error displays asking you to delete the future-dated records with the Undo action prior to starting the wizard. An extended error message informs you of the next steps to be taken.
If you are not entering a previous session, select the Enter Wizard button: A Session Number pop-up window displays and provides you with a unique, system-generated number for this session.
Select OK to proceed to the next page, PACTWP.
