Historical Hire action - change effective date

We previously were able to correct what is considered the "current row" in the audit log for either employee or Work Assignment.   But with recent upgrades in Landmark, this functionality has been removed.  One process that has been impacted significantly is the changing of hire dates to a later date.  Future effective dated transactions are still editable, however, those transactions that are current, meaning < Today() cannot be modified to adjust the effective date.  Infor provided us with a process to terminate the employee, then rehire them with the updated effective date, and remove turnover tags so they don't appear in reporting.  This process is intricate for what should be a minor correction.  Does anyone have any other suggestions for process flows that you currently have in place?
