When you hire a candidate who was linked to an employee record, the system assigns them their original employee number and record instead of creating a new one. The system also effective-end dates their previous information (for example, their phone number) to ensure that the latest information is on file.
In order for the system to use the original employee number on rehire, the following conditions must be met:
- You must enable the Enable SSN Validation client property in the Employee section of the Properties tab in System Admin > Client Properties.
- The employee's SIN/SSN/National ID number, last name, and country need to be the same as their original employee record.
