Fixing Personal Information History

Sometimes, interfaces that import employee demographic information can cause the history for personal information items to not accurately reflect the correct history. This usually happens when incorrect data is imported into the time and attendance system from the source system, corrected in the source system and then passed back to the time and attendance system for import. There are many reasons why you would want to correct the history, but the most important reasons include the affects the history has on employee’s pay and benefit accruals.
