How You Reassign or Add Direct Reports During Local and Global Transfer

When you transfer managers, they automatically keep their direct reports, even when moving to a new legal employer. But you can change that. As part of the transfer, you can reassign direct reports to other managers. You can also add new reports.

Here's where you make these changes:

• You can add new direct reports in the Add Direct Reports section.

• You can reassign direct reports in the Reassign Direct Reports section. This section displays only if the manager has direct reports assigned. By default, all manager relationships be it line manager or project manager are available for the direct report. You can reassign or retain existing direct reports. If you retain the direct reports during global transfer, their assignments are updated with the newly created assignment record of the manager. When you add or reassign direct reports, changes occur at the assignment level for each report. You can select the same new manager for all direct reports or a different new manager for each report.

• However, in case of a global temporary assignment, you can move the manager's direct reports to the destination assignment or retain them in the source assignment. You can configure the ORA_PER_EMPL_GTA_POP_DIRECTS profile option code to do either of these actions in the Local and Global Transfer flow:

  • Default the manager's existing direct reports in the Reassign Direct Reports section when you perform a global temporary assignment.

  • Default the manager's existing direct reports in the Add Direct Reports section when you perform a global temporary assignment. You can then remove the direct reports from the section that you don't want to move to the destination assignment.
