Change Status

When you create a person record, the status of the record defaults to ACTIVE. A person record must have a status of ACTIVE to be assigned to a labor or user record.

For information about restrictions on how to change the status of a person record to INACTIVE, see the Person Status Overview.

When you set the status of a person record to INACTIVE, the system also sets the associated labor and user records statuses to INACTIVE. However, when you change the status of an inactive person record to ACTIVE, the status of the associated labor and user records does not also change. The status of these records must be changed to ACTIVE in the Labor and Users applications.

To change the status of person record from the List tab:

1. In the List tab, query for the records whose status you want to change.

2. At the bottom of the Person table window, select the Select Records check box. The screen refreshes to display a check box for each record.

3. Select the check boxes for the person records whose status you want to change.

4. From the Select Action menu, select Change Status. The Change Status dialog box opens.

5. In the New Status field, click the list to select a new status.

6. Enter a brief description in the Memo field stating the reason for the change in status.

7. Click OK. The system displays a message dialog.

8. Click Close.
