(USF) Setting Up Position Titles

To set up position titles, use the Official Position Titles USF (GVT_PSN_TTL_TBL) and the Organizational Posn Titles USF (GVT_ORG_PSN_TTL) components.

These topics discuss how to set up position titles.

Note: An official position title is the title of a position that is in accordance with the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) position classification standards. An organizational position title is the unofficial title that is given to a position based on how your agency is organized and where the position fits in the organization.

Official Position Title and Description

Enter a title and description of the position. If you leave these fields blank and later select a job code on the Job Information page, these fields will display the title and description associated with that job code.

You can override the default value. This information appears on the incumbent's Employment record. As such, this information should be updated to reflect that the position title, short title, and long description are always overwritten with the Job Code's values when changing a position's job code.
