Rehire of employee - STP question

I have an employee who was terminated and has now been rehired. I've done the rehire through Manage Employee Information so that the original hire date and adjusted service date are recorded as well as the rehire date. The cessation type that I recorded on termination remains in the Employment Info tab in the employee's record, but is greyed out. Will this be included in the STP file? The STP info on the ATO website states that the cessation date and type should not be reported if an employee is rehired using the same payroll ID, which is the case here. Any advice appreciated, thank you.

    Hi @Wini1010

    It sounds like you've not completed the Re-Hire process in full, as the Cessation Type should auto-remove:

    Does it still show as terminated here ?:

    That status - along with the Cessation Type - will be removed on Re-Hire 😊

    Hi Shaz,

    Thanks for that. The employee was not showing as Terminated, so I'm not sure why it greyed out and not removed like yours. Anyway, I reinstated the termination, manually removed the Release Date (Last day on payroll) which then let me remove the cessation type and then did the re-hire, so it looks like yours now. Hopefully this will work correctly for STP?
