FAQ 429: Vesting--Incorrect percentage for a rehired employee

Problem: See attached case with Bob Jones as a rehire. I noticed his vesting did not increase from 80% to 100% this year. It shows that the Vesting Start date is 1/1/1999, which is correct. Do I have to enter history, or what is the problem here?

Solution: The problem is that you have to keep the most recent date of termination in the record, even when someone is rehired. The system uses this date combination, in addition to the Vesting Start date, to determine the history years to review for hours for vesting. If you enter his date of termination, you should the correct vesting percentage being calculated for him.
