PAR Defaults for Approved Transactions

In PeopleSoft HR, the Personnel Action Request (PAR) system automatically routes a wide variety of requests to reviewing officials in human resources. PAR processing is separate from the Approval Framework approval process and occurs only after all Approval Framework approvals are complete, at which point a component interface automatically pushes the transaction data to the PAR tables.

To support the push to the PAR system, you must provide default values for certain fields that are required in the PAR tables and that are not normally entered by the employee who originates the self-service request.

See Defining PAR Tracking Data.

This process flow diagram illustrates how employee self-service transactions first go through Approval Framework approvals, then get sent to federal PAR processing before any data changes are made to core HR tables:
