Onboarding

This infotype stores data pertaining to the staff member’s security clearance, medical clearance and background screening. It can be created prior to executing a PA in order to request medical clearance. So always check with the onboarding team whether the medical clearance request has already been submitted in inspira.

If the medical clearance has already been requested by the onboarding team in inspira, you must skip this infotype.

It consists of the three following sections:
• Clearance Information
• Remarks
• Additional fields

Reason for release

As a result of improvements to the interface between Umoja and EarthMed, additional information is required when submitting Medical Clearance requests. Infotype 0487 now includes a Duty Station field, which must be completed with the personnel subarea code for the duty station at which the staff member will be working. This field is required for both onboarding and change of duty station medical clearances.

Follow the Preboard Request Medical Clearance procedure documented in the Onboarding job aid.
On infotype 0487 (Create Security/Medical Clearance) select MCLR for Clearance Type, and the values for Clearance Category and Application Status appropriate for the staff member you are processing; and enter or search for the Duty Station (Personnel Subarea) at which the Staff Member will be working. When searching using the Duty Station Text field, the * wild card character can be used.

It is mandatory to complete this field even though you can currently validate and save the record without providing a value for Duty Station. A change will soon be implemented making Duty Station a required field.
