Position ID

The Position ID is a unique 9 character attribute. The combination of Company Code and File ID derives the Position ID.

Note: The Position ID is derived from File ID.

You can identify the File ID in three ways

  • Assignment Number as File ID: If Assignment Number doesn't start with alphabets, consider the File ID from the Assignment Number field

  • Person Number as File ID: If the Assignment Number field start with letters, consider the Person Number as File ID.

  • Third-Party Identifier as File ID: If the identifier type is Third-Party Payroll Id consider the Identifier as File ID and pick up the active record always.

The first 3 positions is Company Code and the next 6 positions is File ID.

  • Position 1 to 3 => Company Code (Say 'T24')

  • Position 4 to 9 => File ID (say 786, if the file ID is less than 6 digit, then pad with leading zeros)

  • Position 10 => 'N' if the assignment status is Active- no payroll else blank.

The derived Position ID is T24000786N.

The application derives the Position ID from the Company Code, Assignment Number, and Assignment Status during extraction. If Assignment Status = Active-No Payroll, the application doesn't either display or store the Position ID.
