Order by clause for column datatype as character

We generally cannot order the records for a column with character data type. Please use the following trick to use the order clause:

select employee_number from employees
order by lpad(employee_number,100);

Using the lpad the zeros would be appended and then sql will treat them as numbers and the employee number would be sorted.

API to Purge an person from Oracle HRMS

DECLARE
   l_person_org_manager_warning VARCHAR2 (200);
BEGIN
   hr_person_api.delete_person(p_validate => FALSE,
                               p_effective_date => SYSDATE,
                               p_person_id => :person_id,
                               p_perform_predel_validation => FALSE,
                               p_person_org_manager_warning => l_person_org_manager_warning
                              );
   COMMIT;
END;

Before purging the person from Oracle HRMS we need to make sure that the employee and fnd_user link is been deleted and also the person should not have an active payroll.
If the employee has an active payroll then we cannot purge the record. The alternative way is to either end date the employee using the termination screen or you need to change the person from 'Employee' to 'Applicant' and then use the above API again to purge the record.
