Employee Leaves the Company

Example
  • Employee leaves the company

To do

  • The person, the person properties, and the respective resource are to be archived (by setting the Leaving date/Left on date). Caution: Do not delete!
    • If the person or the resource itself is deleted, both the planning (remaining data) as well as reports and evaluations are falsified since they no longer contain actual data.
      • The user of the respective person can be deleted if required. This has no impact on the reporting system in PLANTA project.
  • The remaining planning of the employee resource is to be checked and the effort is possibly to be replanned.

Procedure

From DB 39.5.11

  • In the Persons module:
  • Empty the Start period and End period fields in the Resource Data Sheet module additionally.
    • Save.
    • Result: the person and the respective resource are archived. The resource is no longer displayed in any of the resource listboxes and cannot be used for new resource planning.
