Cornerstone fuehrt jede Person unter einer eigenen Kennung. Der Export
dorthin trug in "User ID" und "Username" bisher die Alpenwerk-UUID --
richtig, solange es nichts Besseres gab, aber nicht die Kennung, unter
der Cornerstone die Person kennt. Jetzt steht dort diese Spalte.
Freiwillig, weil die Zuordnungstabelle des Kunden fuer 434 der 784
Personen keine Kennung liefert. Eindeutig, weil eine Kennung genau einer
Person gehoert. Als Text, weil fuehrende Nullen in einer numerischen
Spalte verlorengingen.
Ohne hinterlegte Kennung bleiben User ID und Username **leer**. Ein
Rueckfall auf die UUID braechte zwei Kennungsarten in eine Datei, ohne
dass es auffiele, und legte in Cornerstone eine zweite Person neben der
bestehenden an. Eine fehlende Angabe soll fehlen; dafuer gibt es einen
eigenen Test.
Fuenf Funktionen mussten mit -- dieselbe Liste und derselbe Grund wie bei
der Firmen-E-Mail: hire_employee und rehire_employee teilen sich den
Schritt "Person", change_employee_data macht das Feld aenderbar,
apply_due_pending_changes sorgt dafuer, dass eine datierte Aenderung
nicht verfaellt, app_feld_karte haelt den Eintrag in der Historie
richtigstellbar. Die Migration ist wieder erzeugt, nicht abgeschrieben,
und prueft jede der fuenf einzeln.
Erfasst wird das Feld in der Akte, in "Daten aendern", bei Einstellung
und Wiedereintritt sowie ueber den Massenimport; es steht im
Mitarbeiterexport und fuellt im Cornerstone-Export User ID und Username.
Both columns now hold employees.id, and they hold the same value: in
Alpenwerk the user name and the user id never diverge. If they did,
Cornerstone would show two identities for one person and every
reference to them -- manager, reports -- could hit the wrong one.
The UUID rather than the personnel number, because it is the identifier
that never changes. A personnel number can be corrected, and the person
would then be somebody else in Cornerstone.
Local System ID keeps the personnel number as LOGA assigns it, which is
what that column is for. Customfield ID AD keeps the directory account
name (vorname.nachname); it is a separate thing from the Cornerstone
user name and always was.

Reworked against the load spec and the 27.09. test file. The values I
had guessed were the German display names, which is the first entry on
the list of errors from earlier loads: Cornerstone answers "ungültiger
Wert" and rejects the whole row, followed by "Alle abhängigen Felder
müssen gültig sein" as a follow-on.
Status Aktiv/Inaktiv -> Active/Inactive
Employment Status Arbeitend/... -> Working/On Leave/Terminated
User Type Mitarbeiter -> Employee
Time Zone CET -> empty
The time zone is the second entry on that list: only a portal time zone
id is valid, an abbreviation gives "Zeitzonencode nicht eindeutig".
Empty means the portal or the OU decides.
Division ID is the GUID from the test file, not a name. Termination
fields and Leave Reason are filled only when the employment status
carries them -- a reason without a termination is an invalid state for
the load, not extra information.
Four fields now stay empty on purpose, because filling them would mean
inventing an identifier that belongs to the target system: Location ID
(locations has id/name/country and no Cornerstone id), Position ID (our
S-0001 is not a Cornerstone position), Months of Service (Cornerstone
derives it) and Rehired Employee (the value for "yes" is unconfirmed,
and an unconfirmed value costs the whole row). Retention Rules and
Organisationsstufe stay empty because the load ignores them.
Header and row now match the test file byte for byte, except User ID
(no TEST- prefix outside a test load), Required Training Approvals and
Location ID.

The 57 columns of the Cornerstone user import, in the given order and
spelling, offered as CSV and Excel under the Honestly report. Same
people and same filters as the full export.
Two things about the file itself, both of which would have failed
quietly. Cornerstone reads comma-separated, while toCsv writes the
semicolons and the BOM that German Excel wants -- the BOM would have
hidden inside the name of the first column, so "User ID" would have
matched nothing in the mapping. toCsv now takes the form as an argument
and keeps its old defaults; the Cornerstone form lives next to the
columns so a test can hold both. Quoting follows the delimiter now,
otherwise a comma in an address would split the row.
Dates go out day-first, matching the import setting. An ISO date is
read as a different, equally valid date and nobody notices.
Gender maps to Cornerstone's own values; anything unexpected becomes
"not specified" rather than empty, because an invalid value makes
Cornerstone reject the whole row, not just the field.
Status and Employment Status come from separate rules: somebody on
Karenz has a working account and is not working, and filling both from
one value gets one of the two wrong.
Four fields carry visible placeholders because the leading systems do
not supply their identifiers yet: Division ID, Doxis, Interflex,
LGVplus. Home Phone and Personal Email stay empty on purpose -- what
leaves the house is the business data.
Not verified against a running Cornerstone import, and not seen in a
browser; there is no database reachable here.
