Understanding Positions

Human Resources helps your organization keep an effective-dated history of all positions, regardless of whether they are filled. If jobs and their scope change less often than the employees filling them in your organization, Human Resources enables you to structure human resource data by position. You can track organizational reporting relationships independently of the employees in the positions. To do this, enable the Manage Positions business process on the HCM Options - Installation page.

These topics discuss how to:

  • Set up tables.

  • Manage position data.

  • Manage position data security.
