What is the process to archive an account to release the employee number?
You will first need to deactivate the account, and then archive it. Once archived, all account information is removed from NCID. BEACON is the authority for the employee number, which is unique to each person, so in the case of an employee who leaves and has their NCID account archived, if they return later, they would follow the same “linking” process in BEACON as they did previously to get their employee number associated with their new NCID account.
