    TIPS:
    • The Start date should be the start date of employee’s military service, and should match the employee’s Form DD214 or other appropriate documentation.

    • The To date should be the end date of the employee’s military service, and should match the employee’s Form DD214 or other appropriate documentation. If their service has not ended, then use 12/31/9999 as the end date.

    • If the employee has multiple time periods of military service, you will need to create Military Service (0081) and Time Specification/Employ. Period (IT0552) infotypes for each time frame.

      For example, if an employee has prior and current military service or if an employee has multiple periods of prior military service, create a record for each period.
