Rehire still appearing on dormant employee list

An employee was successfully rejoined on the system, why are they still appearing as dormant?

Note: The key to avoiding a rehire from showing on a dormant list is ensuring that the employee is fully dormant before being processed as a rehire. This will prevent any issues from occurring.

Scenario 1

The software is behaving as expected -- no manual intervention is required.
​
Simply wait for the employee's status to update automatically the next time you run the Complete Update Payroll Job (Pay355).
​
For a period of time after a rejoin, the employee may still appear in the CorePersonnel dormant list with a date left (and a latest start/rejoin date). This is due to the current stage of your payroll processing, and will update by itself to fully active ('S') as further steps are completed.
​
The employee is usually not dormant on CorePay - the only actual dormant status on CorePay is Z - so approved salary would not be affected.
​
​Note: The Customer Support team cannot manually intervene to make the employee active earlier, as this can create knock-on effects in CorePay.
​

Scenario 2

When an employee is in a pay group that is not processed / no payroll runs are completed for it, then the employee will remain dormant until the employee is moved to a pay group that is processed.
​

Scenario 3

When an employee is in a pay group A , rejoined and moved to Paygroup B before complete rejoin
