Retire a role code while preserving historical assignments

Move current records through an approved mapping and keep earlier reports on their original code.

Read the role-code transition

Fictional role R-OLD retires at start day 20 with approved mapping to R-NEW for active assignments. Active S33 and S34 use R-OLD; historical day 10 report for S35 also uses R-OLD. Local transition updates active records, retains historical codes and blocks new R-OLD selections after day 20.

Update current associations only

  1. Verify approved mapping identity
  2. Change two active assignments
  3. Retain historical R-OLD reference
  4. Disable new old-code selection

An unmapped active role remains an exception rather than being assigned an arbitrary new role.

How many assignment records change and historical records remain?

Show the worked answer

Two active assignments change; the one historical report remains R-OLD. No past report is relabelled R-NEW.

Keep mapping revision and counts beside the transition event. A changed display label alone does not demonstrate that active coded associations were updated.
