Data Element: Employee Status Code

Employee Status Code is a computer generated field that indicates the employee's overall current status in the Transaction Data (TR) and Systemwide Transaction Data (STR) files.  The coding values are:

 

A status code of 1 indicates the employee currently has at least one active or onleave position sequence.  Note that an employee with a status code of 1 may have separated position sequences.   

 

A status code of 3 indicates the employee is currently separated from all position sequences.  Note that position sequences with return rights (Transaction Codes S30 and S71) are considered to be separated.  

 

For example:

The following employee has 2 position sequences.  One of the position sequences is active and the other is separated, so the employee's overall status code is considered to be active or onleave (status code = 1).
