Picklist.
In SAP SF, the event labels can be changed but the external codes
cannot be changed at configuration time. If it is changed the entire system
will be corrupted.
In SF we cannot
create any custom events we have to use the standard events which are
available. In SF there are 29 events which are pre-defined.
For any custom events, SF provided to change the existing event
label and we can use, but intent remains same.
What are Event Reasons?
Event reason is an activity derived from events that drives changes
in employee data. Actions taken in the Employment Profile are based on the
client requirement.

>>Effective as of -
From when should the event reason be effective or visible in the system.
>>Event Reason Id - A unique id for the event reason
>>Event Reason Name - Name for the event reason
>>Status - Event Reason status (Active/Inactive)
>>Event - The event that needs to be mapped to the event
reason (The events are defined in Picklist Management)
>>Employee Status – The status of the employee when this event
reason is selected in his job info portlet.
We can create end number of Event Reasons in Event ID’s and always
select the Active Option.

Search action as Manage Permission Roles
