The purpose of the CancelPersonnel is to communicate personnel data that exists on separate data bases between manufacturing and human resource applications. The CancelPersonnel allows the adding of new employees and their relevant data as well as the modification of previously established employees.

The CancelPersonnel is used to facilitate the maintenance of human resource data in a manufacturing work force planning module. This enables the workforce planning module to use current personnel information when creating finite production schedules. The CancelPersonnel can also be used by a project accounting application or a work order management application to assign qualified personnel or to perform resource planning.

This information is provided as information it is up to the receiving system to determine what to do with it.
