Assigning Holder Positions

Prerequisites

You use this feature to determine which person (employee) or user occupies a position. By assigning a position, users in SAP Business Workflows can, directly or indirectly - by their relationship with employees - be determined as agents of work items.

If you have got Personnel Administration set up, the system knows which employees are assigned to positions. Employees must be linked with users so that users can be recognized as agents. This relationship must be maintained in infotype Communication (105) of the Master Data area.

If you are not using Personnel Administration, users are directly assigned to positions and are immediately established as agents of particular single-step tasks.

If you assign positions to holders, you create relationship records, this is relationship A/B 008.
