I want to delete a employee from PeopleSoft.
How does one go about deleting an EMPLID from the database? Is this safe? or should I just terminate the employee?
Thanks!

PeopleSoft delivers employee id delete function to delete emplid from the system.
Although it is not recommended to delete the employee from the system after hiring them.
One can use EMPLID delete function to delete the emplid, only if Payroll is not processed for the employee in PeopleSoft system.
How to use this EMPLID delete function.
where it is in peoplesoft
This utility can be located under
Setup HRMS > System Administration > Database Processes > ID DeleteYou may also find similar utility called "id change" under there.
It is not recommended to use this function because it has adverse effects on downstream system. Meaning when we have a system where data is sent out from HR system to other system and vendors.
It is always recommended to terminate the employee and hire the employee under new emplid.
Hope this helps
