|
HCR_OC_CHG_ASGN |
Change a controlling instance to an additional assignment under another instance. You can demote an instance to an assignment only if the instance does not have any additional assignments. |
When you promote an assignment to an instance, so that it is no longer subordinate to another organizational instance, you make an additional assignment into its own instance. For example, you might want to terminate a controlling instance, but maintain the additional assignment. If the additional assignment is subordinate to the controlling instance, they share the same organizational instance number, the additional job is terminated automatically when you terminate the controlling instance. To promote an instance for a single employee online, add a new row on the Work Location page of the Job Data component. Use the Promote an Assignment page to promote assignments for multiple employees as a batch process.
Use the Demote Instance page to make a controlling instance into an additional assignment under another instance. To demote an instance, the controlling instance should not have any additional assignments.
Use the Move Assignment to another Inst page to move an additional assignment to another instance. This is useful to correct errors. For example, when you select the wrong employee record number to be the controlling instance.
These restrictions apply to modifying organizational instance and assignment relationships:
These actions are valid only for employees and contingent workers; persons of interest are not eligible.
These actions are not valid for Japan additional appointments and temporary assignments.
You can only promote a host assignment to an instance if the host assignment is terminated and there are no future assignment rows with action ASG (Assignment) or ASC (Assignment Completion).
Assignments with future rows with action ADL (Additional Job) are ineligible.
You cannot change or delete a row after you confirm any of these actions.
The action codes that are entered on the rows for these actions are:
OCA – Promote an Assignment to an Instance.
OCI – Demote an Instance.
OCM – Move an Assignment to another Instance.
You must define action reasons that correspond to the delivered actions OCA, OCI, and OCM before using this component.
Use the Promote an Assignment page (RUNCTL_OC_PRO_ASG) to batch process to promote assignments for multiple employees.
