Dependents, beneficiaries, or contacts don’t get a new employee number if hired as an employee.

Summary: People who are currently in oracle (dependent, beneficiary, contact) don’t get a new employee number if hired as an employee.

1. Before 11/11/24, This worked the way we expected with a dependent getting an additional profile with new Employee Number after being hired. When and why did this change?
2. If the new employee has a 5 digit number vs 6 digit number starting with 102xxx, this will look strange to administrators and won't make logical sense. Will the 5 digit number format as an Employee cause issues?
3. I see we can change "Manage Enterprise HCM Information "Person Creation Service Duplicate Check" field to None, but does this mean that a person who's rehired will get a new employee number? (We want the rehired employee to keep the same number.)
