Concept: Hire Employee Initiating Actions
The
Hire
business process offers multiple Hire Employee
initiating actions to suit the needs of your organization. When configuring the business process, you can decide which initiating actions are most appropriate for your security groups. For more information on initiating actions, see Concept: Action Stepand Setup Considerations: Business Processes. Workday recommends that your users have access to only 1 version of the Hire Employee
task from Workday global search. The main differences between the Hire Employee
initiating actions are the ability to:
- Use additional search fields and view staffing information in search results.
- Create pre-hires.
- Hire directly from an employment agreement.
Hire Employee
task make it easier for you to find existing person records. In addition to the pre-hires and former workers, your search results include:
- Pre-hires marked ineligible for hire.
- Active students with a pre-hire record.
- Inactive students and inactive external students without a pre-hire record.
- Terminated workers marked ineligible for rehire.
We filter out active workers who don't have a termination date and limit the results to 100.
If you want to use an enhanced Pre-Hire Search experience, you can change the
