Termination Reason Tracking

When you terminate an employee, you must specify a termination or release date. If you use the Termination Reason Tracking feature, you must select a termination category and a termination reason from a list of options. You must also specify termination details, and whether the termination is regretted. For more information, see Managing Termination Reasons.

If you view the employee record of an employee who was terminated before this feature was enabled, these fields are populated by the string “Unspecified”.

NetSuite has several default termination reasons, but you can change them or create your own. For more information, see Default Termination Reasons.

The Termination Reasons page shows all of the termination reasons in your account. If you no longer want to use a reason, but it has been used in the past, you can make it inactive. To view inactivated termination reasons, select the Show Inactives box.

If you use the Workforce Analytics feature, you can view a high-level snapshot and synopsis of the employees who are leaving your company. You can view the reasons why employees are leaving on the Turnover Analysis page. Go to Reports > Employees/HR > Turnover Analysis. For more information, see Workforce Analytics.

Note:

When this feature is enabled mass update is not available. Instead use the NetSuite Import Assistant to update data through import of a CSV file. For information, see Importing CSV Files with the Import Assistant. Also, when this feature is enabled inline editing is disabled.
