Position Class Totals (PA01.3)

Use Position Class Totals (PA01.3) to view the current number of employees assigned to positions in a position class.

Processing Effect

The Personnel Administration system calculates budgeted and authorized counts for the position class by adding the individual counts for every position in the position class.

When both authorized and budgeted head counts are used within a single position class, the variance calculated for the position class will not be a simple arithmetic calculation.

Example:

Position A and Position B are in the same position class and different rules have been defined for each. Position A uses authorized counts and Position B uses budgeted counts. Because the positions use different rules, the formula for calculating variance is different for each position.

For Position A, Variance = Authorized - Assigned

For Position B, Variance = Budgeted - Assigned

The system calculates the variance for each position using the appropriate formula based on rules defined for that position. The variance totals for the position class are calculated by adding the variance for each position in the position class. A message displays indicating whether the positions in this position class use authorized counts, budgeted counts, or both.
