Master Position Management Overview

Use the Master Position Management window to create "template" positions.

• Master positions can be controlled or uncontrolled. Click here for more information about controlled & uncontrolled positions.

• • When a master position is uncontrolled, you add jobs to employees in Manage Employees or Employee Jobs. You don't have to first add positions in Position Management.

  • When a master position is controlled, you must first add positions in Position Management and then fill them in Manage Employees or Employee Jobs.

• Calendars must be defined in HR Configuration before you can create master positions.

• Master positions must be enabled before they're available for use.
