Creating positions through decision packages

You can create positions also through decision packages using the Position tab.

To calculate workforce costs that are associated with these positions, you can use salary, supplemental pay and benefit configurations that are performed in Workforce Budgeting.

You can create positions through decision packages if you require budget approval for various costs that also include non-workforce related costs. For example, when you open a new office, you would include workforce, rent, equipment, and service costs in your budget.

With the position settings and the Workforce Budgeting configuration, you can, for example, select to hide positions until they are approved. After the decision packages are approved, the positions including their workforce costs are automatically added to Workforce Budgeting.

The Position tab is available in decision packages with organizations. Ensure that the Position tab is included in workbook template configuration. The workflow configuration must be completed for your configuration set, version, application, and entity. And Financial planning steps with activated organizational planning must be submitted to the workflow.
