Updating positions

Updating a position has an effect on associated work assignments and job requisitions, depending on the position field default rules that are in place for the organization. For example, if you select Default, no override for a position field default rule when the position field value is changed, the corresponding work assignment and requisition field value also change to that new value. If the position default rule for a job field is Default with Override when the position field is changed, then the field value is changed on the corresponding work assignment and requisition field only if the value is the same (that is, the value has not been overridden). If the value has been overridden, then the override value is retained on the work assignment and requisition. In addition, changes to the position are not reflected on existing job postings.

To update the associated job requisitions and job postings when a field is changed on the position or a job, you must enable the Enable Requisition Synchronization With Job And Position Updates option.

To review the updates in the job requisitions and job postings, you must select the job requisition synchronization rules to Review Updates.

See the Infor HR Talent User and Administration Library (Cloud and On-premises) and select User > Talent Acquisition > Talent Acquisition setup > Talent Acquisition organization setup > Configuring Talent Acquisition organization parameters > Configuring job requisition synchronization rules.

If a position is synchronized with a manager code, the manager code's Active, Short Description, and Description fields are always synchronized to the position's Active, Short Description, and Description fields. Other field values follow the position field default rules, where applicable.

You can also make changes to multiple positions at once.

If the position is synchronized to a job, you cannot change the Active, Short Description, and Description fields. These fields must be changed on the job record, or you must de-synchronize the position on the job record.

Before recruiters can view the specific fields that are updated in the position, system administrators must enable the Enhance Pending Changes Panel in Job Requisition feature toggle.

See Enabling feature toggles.

Recruiters can view the position fields that are updated from the job requisition.

See the Infor HR Talent User and Administration Library (Cloud and On-premises) and select User > Talent Acquisition.
