How should HR review new hires and terminations before reporting?

A practical guide to reviewing new hires and terminations before they flow into monthly reporting, daily lists, or audit follow-up.

Short answer

Review new hires and terminations with the selected date context in mind. HR should check the relevant hire and termination fields, status values, manager, department, location, and any operational fields needed for follow-up before the rows flow into summary numbers or workbooks.

Why this matters

• New hires and terminations often drive the most visible monthly movements.
• They also tend to create follow-up work outside the summary report.
• A shared review process makes the operational list and the reporting view more consistent.

What HR should check

• Hire and termination dates in relation to the selected snapshot or review window.
• Status values and whether they support the expected logic.
• Manager, department, location, and work email fields needed for follow-up.
• Whether the same rows should show up in Daily, Audit, and support outputs.

Common mistakes

• Treating movements only as summary counts.
• Waiting until after the report is sent to build the operational lists.
• Using different assumptions for hires and terminations across outputs.

How KYBN helps

• KYBN supports both reporting outputs and operational follow-up from the same workflow.
• Daily and Audit outputs help separate summary numbers from row-level follow-up work.
• The same selected setup can make movement logic easier to keep consistent.
