If you have an employee who is leaving your unit and you plan to rehire for the position, you have two options for planning for the new hire compensation. You may use either option; it is not necessary to do both.
1. Reuse the existing plan data. Change the values on the Monthly Pay Rate tab to zero for the months you expect the position to be vacant. Put a note in the Comments field to indicate that the future plans are for the new hire.
2. Remove existing plan data and create a To Be Hired employee. Zero out the Monthly Pay Rate for all future months when your existing employee will no longer be working for you on the Manage Existing Employee and Job Codes, Monthly Pay Rate tab. HCP will not be able to calculate a planned salary expense for those months and no planned benefits. Then add a To Be Hired employee on the Manage Existing Employee and Job Codes form. See To Be Hired Employees for detailed instructions.
