You can edit job changes such as job creation date, start date, transfers, promotions, and terminations. You can do this from the **Job History** tab in an employee profile or on the History page.
For example, you might need to edit the start date for a hire who started later than expected or change the departure reason for a termination.

You can’t set a person’s start date to before their job’s creation date. If you need to do so, first change the job creation date.

### Edit a change from the History page
Use the History page if you want to make multiple edits to your job history as it gives you an easy look into job history across your organization.
To edit a job change from the History page:
1. In the left sidebar, select **Admin**.
2. In the sub-menu, select History > **Org Changes History. **
3. At the far right of the row for the change to edit, select the Pencil icon.
4. In the Edit change dialog, make your changes.
5. Select **Save to primary**.
### Edit a change from the Employee Profile
If you only want to change an individual job change, such as a person's start date, you can use the Employee Profile.
To edit a job change from the Employee Profile:
1. From the left sidebar, select **Org Chart**.
2. On the **Org Chart**, select the person whose job history you want to edit.
3. Select **View Profile**.
4. At the far right of the row for the change to edit, select the Pencil icon.
5. In the dialog that appears, make your changes.
6. Select **Save to primary**.
