FAQ: Events/ Rank Events

How do I indicate months and years in the template Rank Events data model?

---

The year must be the year the events takes place and the event month is between 1 and 12. For an event occurring in the first year of August the event year would be 1 and the event month would be 8.

Can a different month be used with the same year for an event?

---

Yes. In fact, you cannot have an event with the same year and month within the same Professional Journey.

What makes an event "current" and green? What is the timeframe for "current"?

---

A user needs to manually start the event in order for it to be current. At this time, Lifecycle Management does not auto-start events.

Can we load past events with whatever dates that we want?

---

No. When loading a past event the appointment start date should align with the hire date and start date of the current appointments.

Best Practice: Events/ Rank Events

General Best Practices for Rank Events

---

1. Each rank is "independent of others"
2. When putting events in for a rank, all the events should mark the time in that particular rank.
3. Each rank should start with an Appointment event.

When should you start an Event in Lifecycle Management?

---

For a review, it's recommended that you start the event at the start of the review period. This date will default to the first of the month.
