Mark Pre-hires for Deletion

Print

This job aid outlines the activities for an HR Partner to mark a duplicate Pre-Hire record for deletion. Marking a Pre-Hire record for deletion will prevent the record from being selected during the Hire business process.

Prerequisites

The Hire business process must be canceled before a Pre-Hire record can be marked for deletion.

Important Information

  • Typically, duplicate pre-hires are unintentionally created during the recruiting process or during the initiation of the Hire business process.
  • Only the HR Partner has the security permission to use the Mark Pre-Hires for Deletion task, however, both the HR Contact and HR Partner have permission to cancel the Hire business process.
  • A pre-hire record with an ID of “A123004567” should never be marked for deletion because the pre-hire record with an ID of “A123004567” is the pre-hire record at the time of conversion to Workday.
  • If a Pre-Hire record is mistakenly marked for deletion, another Pre-Hire record must be created to move forward with the Hire business process.
