The Organization: Initial Screen appears.

2. Select an organizational unit, and then select the Organization view.

3. Choose Organization ® Change.

4. Select the position you want to copy.

The Copy Object screen appears.

When you copy a position (object type S), you do not create a relationship to the job (object type C) that describes this position. You must create the corresponding relationship ("job describes position") in Organizational Management.

A job is a grouping together in Organizational Management of tasks performed by employees. Each job is unique within the company (e.g. administrator). A position is the actual physical occurrence of a job (e.g. administrator of finances).
