Deleting versus Delimiting Users (620)

[Klaus-Dieter Spatz]

You should always query p0000-stat2 <> 0. That gives you only the active
people.

I have a question on regarding how to delimit these users when
terminated. 

When a person is terminated, HR is delimiting the user twice. 
First is terminated and then set the ENDDA to term actual term date.
Then again as: 
BEGDA = term date and 
ENDDA as the term date and 12/31/9999. 

Is this the best practices approach? 
Because now have a problem with my quires for apps / wf created for
Term, Change in pay, etc. 
My query is returning the Terminated users along with the valid users
because they are in the 
range of BEGDA - ENDDA.

What do most SAP HR departments do for this scenario?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks to Mike Pokraka for shedding light on this.

The issue is that delimited users can have substitution set up, deleted

users can't.

Have fun,
Mark

G'day Wug,

I'm wondering about the pro's and con's of deleting versus delimiting
the 
dates when you no longer want a user in the system. There was a
discussion 
of this some time ago and there are benefits in terms of maintaining a
full 
history to delimit rather than delete.

What I'm wondering is is if there is a technical difference from an 
administrator point of view. In some off-list discussions it was
thought 
that the ability to forward non-complete WIs was limited when a user is

deleted. However in 620 this doesn't seem to be the case.

Is there a technical issue or is it simply a reporting/audit one.

Thanks very muchly!
Mark
