Prerequisites

If you create positions in Simple Maintenance, it is not necessary to assign positions to an organizational unit. The system automatically carries out the assignment when you have created an organizational unit or if you are working with an organizational unit.

However, if you create positions in Detail Maintenance, they will not automatically be assigned to an organizational unit. It is therefore possible that your organizational plan might include unassigned or unrelated positions.

Using the following procedure, you can assign positions to organizational units and create a relationship - this is relationship A/B 003

Procedure

  1. On the Change Staff Assignments or Change Reporting Structure screen, choose the organizational unit that is to become the parent of the unassigned position(s).
  2. Choose Edit ® Assign ® Position.
  3. The Choose Position dialog box appears.

  4. In the Search string field, look up the position(s) you want to assign. Choose Continue.
  5. If the system finds more than one position, a list of all positions found appears.

    Note

    The search lists all positions in the organizational plan — not just those that are unrelated.

  6. Choose each position you want to assign, and select Transfer.
  7. The Position Assignment dialog box appears, showing the new assignment.

  8. If you decide not to assign the position(s) to the proposed placement, you can deselect the appropriate Position Assignment indicator(s).
  9. If the system finds only one position, the Position Assignment dialog box appears, showing the proposed placement.

  10. If necessary, you can search for positions in the Structure Search field.
  11. If necessary, choose Period to adjust the validity period of the relationship between positions and the organizational unit.
  12. The Validity Period dialog box appears.

    1. Enter data as required.
    2. Choose Continue.

    Otherwise, skip to step 8.

  13. Choose Assign.
