Status tab of Employee Maintenance

On the Status tab, you can view and change an employee's employment status. This tab displays the employee's status, the date on which that status became active, and any additional notes about the status.

Note: Each employee must have at least one status in the list.

Caution: If your company uses interface files for importing data into RMS, status changes are automatically updated with each import. If you edit this tab, your changes might be overwritten the next time an interface file is imported. Check with your HR or Payroll department to determine whether your company uses interface files.
