One of your ideas has been delivered from your suggestion.Redwood Experience for Add Assignment Process

You can now add an assignment or temporary assignment for the people you manage by using the Redwood Add Assignment process. Line managers and HR Specialists can access the process from My Teams and My Client Groups tabs respectively.

You can default the new assignment as temporary or permanent using the Default Add Assignment to Temporary Enabled (ORA_PER_EMPL_ADD_ASG_DFLT_TEMP_ENABLED) profile option. The default value is Yes, which means the new assignment will be temporary.

You can copy assignment data from the source assignment using the profile option Copy Data from Source Assignment While Adding a New Assignment Enabled (ORA_PER_EMPL_ADD_ASG_COPY_FRM_SRC_ENABLED). The default value is Yes, which means data will be copied from the source assignment.

If you have configured approval rules in the Transaction Console for the responsive Add Assignment process, the same will be applicable for the Redwood process as well.

The new page offers a modern look and feel, fewer clicks, and better performance. By using these new pages or flows, you can take advantage of the cohesiveness through the application.
