Position Management (Early Adopter) - Edge Import

Once Position Management (PM) is activated, its environment becomes the master data system for Position data, related Standard OU,s and Employee assignments.​

New data loads will be available via Edge Import to support bulk data maintenance for all relevant PM entities.

New Key Features

The following new features apply:

  • New data loads ​
  • Positions, Jobs, Functions, OUs: Division, Location, Cost Center, Grade (Metadata including translations) ​
  • Status (Effective dated)​
  • Relationships (Effective dated)​
  • Assignments (Effective dated)​
  • Feeds​
  • Bulk API

Changes for Existing Loads

For Organizational Unit category user-based loads:

  • Configurations are no longer supported
  • Load types:
    • Division ​
    • Location​
    • Cost Center​
    • Grade​
    • Position Note: Position is only relevant for the PM enabled and synchronized implementation scenario.

For employee loads:

  • Configurations with Position Management based fields are no longer supported.​
  • Fields: Manager, Division OU, Location OU, Cost Center OU, Grade OU, Position OU. Note: Position OU is only relevant for the PM enabled and synchronized implementation scenario.

Considerations

  • The November '23 version of the Position metadata load supports only Job assignments.
  • The OU Reconciliation feature available for the Ogranizational Unit user-based category loads is not supported for CHR Position-based category loads.
  • Known issue: The Allow reconciliation field is available for OU records in the Position Management administration.
