Transition tasks

Transition tasks are the actual activities that must be performed as part of the transition process. For example, a task in which a laptop is provided for a new hire can be assigned to a member of the IT department. This task is part of a program for new hires.

Transition task can be created for these audiences:

  • Administrators
  • Candidates
  • Resources

Tasks can be created for specific groups, too.

A task can include one or more subtasks and approval workflows, but those are not tracked in Transition Management. For example, a new laptop would probably involve a procurement request, determination of the laptop load, the laptop load, and security setup.

A transition task can be associated with a prerequisite task. For example, before you can procure a laptop for an employee, the employee must have an employee ID. So a task in which an employee ID is assigned can be a prerequisite for a laptop task.

Tasks that have prerequisite are not actionable until the prerequisite task has been completed.

Example tasks are delivered as content, which is deployed when the Transition Management function is enabled.
