Placing a record on hold

When you place records on hold, Employee Absence Plan Update (LP100) will not process them. After a record is released from hold, it and any subsequent records will be processed. For a transaction to be processed after it has been placed on hold, you must manually change the status back to Not on Hold. This ensures that LP100 will pick up the transaction.

Example

Earl Randolph transferred from full-time to part-time, and has dropped out of the Full-Time group on a plan structure. LP100 will automatically end Earl's master record. However, there is some question as to whether you want to keep Earl in the plan, so need more time to contact the appropriate authority in the company. You can place a hold on Earl's record and run LP100 for all the other employees with changes. Then, after you have an answer, you can either take the record off hold to process it and stop the employee in the plan, or delete the record from Employee Absence Group Audit (LP35.1) and set the master override on Employee Absence Plan Master (LP31.1) to keep Earl active in the plan.
