Redwood - Automated Synchronization of Linked Job and Position Profiles

Enables the sync process to consider descriptive flexfield attributes as well when inheriting items from job profile to position profiles.

Easier for profile administrators to maintain position profiles as their linked job profiles evolve. Enable workers to keep up with and qualify for roles as applicable and advance organizational objectives as a result.

Steps to Enable

The screenshot below displays few options that are available in the job to position profile sync configuration section under My Client Groups ->Profiles ->Profile Types ->Job. The sync is initiated only if Sync to position profile is selected.

To include descriptive flexfield content for sync, select the Descriptive flexfields check box.

Tips And Considerations

Descriptive flexfield is a part of the sync process only if the following conditions are met:

  • Descriptive flexfield context is enabled in the job and position profile sections, and the segment configurations match for both these sections.
  • The following descriptive flexfield attributes of job profile and position profiles must match:
    • Flexfield Code
    • Name
    • API Name
    • Context Code
    • Table Column
    • Value Set
    • Range Type
    • Required
