In Shared HR Install, HR_PERSON_API.UPDATE_PERSON API Unable To Reactivate Terminated Employee (Doc ID 743034.1)

Symptoms

-- Problem Statement:
When attempting to reactivate terminated employee (Shared HR), the following error occurs:

-- Steps To Reproduce:
A. The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. HR information maintained in Banner HR system.
2. Information transferred to Oracle HR tables - Call
hr_batch_message_line_api.create_message_line and HR_PERSON_API.UPDATE_PERSON


Employee hierarchy is maintained using HR_PERSON_API.UPDATE_PERSON,
hr_assignment_api.update_emp_asg_criteria, hr_ex_employee_api.actual_termination_emp,
hr_employee_api.create_us_employee and APPS_APPLMGR.hr_position_api.create_position

This has worked fine for many years until an employee left the company and then returned. The API terminated the employee, but does not appear to have the functionality to re-activate the employee again.
