Simplified Data Entry in Redwood Employment Update Processes

The Redwood employment update processes have been enhanced with these features:

  • Parameters for descriptive flexfields (DFF) - You can now use assignment descriptive flexfields as parameters when you configure assignment descriptive flexfields (DFF) for Redwood employment processes. Refer to the Key Resources section for more details.

  • Selection of effective date based on the assignment start date and end date - You can now select only a valid effective date, which is after the assignment start date and before the assignment end date in the employment update flows.

  • Validation of future-dated records - You can either configure the validation as an error or warning. Selecting None will allow you to proceed without displaying any validation message.

  • Check for future incumbents on change of position - When you change the position on the assignment and this position has future incumbents, there is a validation displayed if there are future incumbents. The validation is displayed only if the configuration option is selected on the Manage Enterprise HCM Information page.

  • Reset of the step data when the user deselects the step after selecting it for the first time and entering or modifying the data - When you deselect a step on the Info to include page and enter or change any info on this step, then the data is reset according to the latest modification.

Organizations can streamline their processes with these additional capabilities.
