!!! DEFINE EMPLOYMENT STATUS
The Employment Status describes the employee’s employment standing withing the organization (i.e. active, terminated, leave with pay, leave without pay, etc.) and is coded on the assignment record.

By changing an employee’s employment status, the work and pay rules can be changed automatically.

The status rules are defined for each group code and determine the processing rules that apply for each employment status. 

On Group Form ([IDGR]) Work Rules tab, you can define the Initial Hiring Employment status when employee is hired and the Ending Employment status when employee is terminated. The employment status can then be defined or overridden by the assignment on the [IEAS] form.

A starter script is provided to load in some basic employment statuses.  While a user MAY NOT delete any of the statuses supplied, they are free to add as many new codes as required.

Employment Status Codes are stored in the [P2K_CM_EMPLOYMENT_STATUSES] table.
;[Employment Status|STATUS_CODE]:This field is the code that describes the employment standing with the organization. 
;[Description|DESCRIPTION]: This field is the description of the code. 
;[Status Type|STATUS_TYPE]: This field provides pre-defined generic statuses which allow the user to categorize the employment status into a specified type.  Any special processing logic for the employment status is programmed internally by this status type.
