Abstract
"Separation request" in the context of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems typically refers to a formal process initiated by an employee or a manager to request the termination or separation of an employee from the company. This request triggers a series of workflows and actions within the ERP system to manage the separation process effectively and efficiently.

Introduction
The separation can be voluntary, such as when an employee quits, leaves, or retires. Separation can also be involuntary, such as when you have to let someone go, for poor performance or another reason.
The process usually involves the following steps:
1)Employee or Manager Initiation: The separation request is typically initiated by the employee who intends to leave the company or the manager responsible for handling employee separations.
2)Submission of Request: The requester fills out a separation request form or uses a dedicated module in the ERP system to submit the request. The form may include details such as the reason for separation, last working day, outstanding dues, exit interview details, etc.
3)Workflow and Approval: Upon submission, the request may go through an approval process, involving HR personnel or managers who need to review and approve the request. Depending on the company's policies and hierarchy, the request may need multiple levels of approval.
4)Impact Analysis: The ERP system may trigger an impact analysis to evaluate the consequences of the separation on various aspects like benefits, payroll, and other related processes. This helps ensure that all necessary steps are taken before the employee's final separation date.
5)Termination Process: Once the separation request is approved, the ERP system will initiate the termination process. This process may include actions such as updating the employee's status, removing system access, and scheduling an exit interview.
6)Clearance and Settlement: The ERP system may assist in managing the clearance process where the departing employee returns company assets, clears outstanding dues, and completes any pending tasks or projects.
7)Archiving: After completing the separation process, the ERP system might archive the employee's data for historical records while ensuring that sensitive information is appropriately secured.
Conclusion
separation requests may vary depending on the ERP system and the company's policies. ERP systems are designed to streamline and automate various HR processes, including employee separations, to ensure that the offboarding process is handled efficiently and in compliance with company regulations.
