IT0000-STAT2 status change from inactive to active on PA40 Action

Hi Experts,

We have created one On-boarding action , according to which an employee is on-boarded with Employment Status - '01' INACTIVE.

After employee is on-boarded in the company we want to run hiring action for it and changing his employment status to '03' ACTIVE. For this, we are running Hiring confirmation action on employee.

Everything is working fine , but  the employment status is still showing as INACTIVE.

We have tried to have changes in ZXPADU01, but they are not affecting the infotype 0000.

In Personnel Action Types , Function character for action is set as '0' Other actions for HIring confirmation action.

Please suggest what action needs to get performed to change the status to active..

Thanks,

Diksha
