How to Manually Edit the Date of Commencement in the EA Form
BrioHR now allows you to manually edit the Date of Commencement in the EA Form.
This feature is particularly useful in cases where employees are transferred between entities or even across countries within the same year.
Scenario Example:
Consider Employee A, who has been employed since 2021. In 2022, the employee was transferred to Singapore and then back to Malaysia in January 2023. For the year 2023, the employee is processed through the Malaysian payroll center.
With this new feature, you can manually select a Date of Commencement that will appear on the EA Form, ensuring accurate representation of the employee's status.
Steps to Edit the Date of Commencement:
- Go to the Employee's Profile.
- Navigate to Payroll > General Payroll Information.
- Select "EA Form Date of Commencement."
- Choose the appropriate date.
- Click "Save."
Once the EA Form is generated, the selected date will be reflected, as shown in the screenshot below.
NOTE:
By default, the system automatically captures and reflects the Date of Commencement for new joiners or employees who are terminated within the year. The option to manually edit this date is specifically designed for special cases, such as transfers between entities or countries.
