Maintaining Position Data

Periodically, you have to enter changes to position data, such as a title change or a position that becomes inactive. You also must update employee data occasionally, such as entering a pay rate change or a leave of absence. You might make a change that affects both position and incumbent (an employee assigned to a position) job data, such as changing the department code for the position. To do this, use the same pages that you used to create positions and assign employees to them.

The system processes position data changes differently if the data that you are updating pertains only to the employee, only to the position, or affects both position and incumbent job data.

These topics discuss how to:

• Determine where to update data.

• (USF) Update the data.

• (E&G) Update the data.

• Distinguish incumbent and position data.
