All-Employee Objective Hierarchy

The employee hierarchy is defined using Siebel Position Administration. The relationship between an employee's position and the corresponding parent position controls the approval routing for objectives and reviews, as well as the hierarchy within the All Employees Objectives and My Team's Objectives views. Employees whose positions do not have parent positions appear at the top level of the All Employees Objectives view and automatically bypass the manager approval process for both objectives and reviews.

To use Siebel Performance Management, users must have an active employee record and an active position. When an employee holds multiple positions, only the employee's primary position is used in the All Employees Objectives and My Team's Objectives views and when routing approvals.

NOTE:  Each employee must have a different primary position. In other words, no other employee can have the same primary position. When more than one employee occupies the same position, the employee whose name comes first alphabetically appears in the All Employee Objectives and My Team's Objectives views. For more information on position administration, see Applications Administration Guide.
