Position Costing Step in Redwood Promote and Change Position Process

You can now manage the position costing information in the newly added Position costing step in the Redwood Promote and Change Position process.

The costing of position is specific to a legislative data group. You need to have access to the legislative data group of the employee to add or modify the costing of the position. The changes to the position costing are within the context of an employee's legislative data group for whom the promote and change position transaction is being initiated.

Tips And Considerations

  • You can't create costing for a position if there is no cost allocation structure attached to the legislative data group.

  • You can't create costing when costing exists in a future date.

  • The total percentage of cost allocations must be between 0 and 100. If it's less than 100, it shows a warning message that the remaining allocation goes to Default Account and proceeds further upon confirmation. If it is above 100, it throws an error message and will not allow you to proceed further.

  • If you enter a percentage and don't enter any costing segments, it gives an error message.

  • If the position has multiple incumbents, though the Assignment step is locked but the Position Costing step is still editable.

  • Position costing can be managed from the position costing pages of payroll. Any changes made in payroll will reflect here and vice versa.
