Bob tracks how long an employee has been with your organization by calculating tenure based on the days they’ve had an active employment status. This helps you quickly understand both their current and total time with the company.
Bob provides two different tenure fields, each showing something slightly different:
Accumulated tenure (years) reflects the employee’s total time with the organization, including any previous employment periods if they were rehired.
Tenure (years) shows only the employee’s current, uninterrupted employment period.
Bob calculates these values by counting the number of days the employee has been active and converting that number into years. For example, an employee active for 143 days will show a tenure of 0.39 years ((1 ÷ 365) × 143 = 0.391780818).
If a tenure value doesn’t look right, double-check the employee’s lifecycle history to see whether breaks in employment or past rehire dates may have paused the calculation for a period of time.
