Personnel Action Control

The Personnel Action Control (PACTRL) page allows sites to restrict usage of certain Personnel Actions and Personnel Action Reasons at a Department, Unit or Union Local  level for a certain time period. Sites can use this feature when they want to freeze hiring for a certain time range or similar scenarios. This page has the below fields:

Personnel Action, Personnel Action Reason (supports Wild card), Department (supports Wild card), Unit (supports Wild card), Union Local (supports Wild card), Include Critical, Comments, From, To

Constraint is added on the Employee Status Maintenance (ESMT) transaction when the user validates or submits ESMT; and the Personnel Action being used is under control which means, on PACTRL this Personnel Action Code and Personnel Action Reason for the employee’s Home Department, Unit, Union local is active in this date range.

If the position associated with ESMT is critical and the Include Critical flag is set to false on PACTRL for the Personnel Action/ Personnel Action Reason/ Department / Unit/ Union Local combination, then is this constraint is not used. The sites can bypass this restriction for any position that is critical.
