Span of control setup

Using the Span of Control menu, administrators can determine which positions are available to managers in the Position Code field when managers create requisitions. Administrators can also select the positions that are available in the New Position field when managers take these actions:
  • Promote
  • Transfer
  • Request Transfer

Positions on the work assignments of the manager's direct and indirect reports are used to create the list of available positions. When viewing a subordinate manager’s direct reports, a manager sees the subordinate manager’s list.

Administrators can configure the list to include positions at various levels of the organization:
  • Positions affiliated with the manager’s direct reports
  • Positions affiliated with the manager and the manager’s peers
  • Positions affiliated with the manager and their descendants

Positions that are not shown in the list of available positions can also be added manually by managers.
