Maximizing Position Data

This chapter provides an overview of maximizing your position data, lists common elements, and discusses how to:

Create departmental budgets.
View budget summary information.
View and report on vacant budgeted position information.
Review position summary information.
Maintain your organizational structure.
Run the organizational structure reports.
Use nVision reports.

Understanding How to Maximize Position Data

The information you use to maintain and track positions can help in organizational planning, budgeting, recruitment, and career planning. With the Manage Positions business process, you can choose to manage budget information at various levels within a department. You can set up reporting relationships to create an organizational hierarchy. You can enter data on proposed, approved, or frozen positions. You can enter requested and approved budget amounts, and even enter year-to-date adjustments to approved budgets. To help in organizational planning, you can view reporting relationships among positions. And finally, to help plan your organization’s future, you can see position, incumbent, and budgeting data from the past and present.

Common Elements

Actual Head Count	Displays the actual number of employees assigned to this position.
Job Code	Displays the job code associated with the position and a short description of the job code.
Location	Displays the location this position is associated with as of the effective date.
Max Head Count (maximum head count)	Displays the maximum head count defined for this position.
Position	Displays the position number and title of the position.
Rate Code Group	Displays a rate code group for this rate code.
Reports To	Displays the number and title of the position this position reports to as of that effective date.
Default Without Override	Indicates that the system directly set the compensation rate on the rate code.
Calculated By	Indicates whether the compensation rate for this rate code is directly set on the rate code or is system-generated using a rate matrix. A value of None indicates the rate is directly set on the rate code. A value of Rate Matrix indicates that the compensation rate is system-generated by a matrix. The Matrix Definition page, located on the Setup HRMS, Common Definitions, Configurable Matrices, Define Matrices component, displays the name of the matrix, if applicable.

Creating Departmental Budgets

When you structure the system by position, you can create budgets that include partial year estimates for positions, such as mid-year retirements, and you can accurately track budgeted and approved head counts and salaries within departments. Your budgets can be for any time period that you designate, such as fiscal years or calendar years, or quarters.

You set up budgets on a department-by-department basis. You don’t have to create budgets for every department in your organization. Select the departments for which you find the budgeting feature the most effective.

You can establish budgets at several levels: by department, job code, or position. Examples in this section show budgeting at the position level, because it provides the most detail and takes full advantage of the budgeting pages. However, you can use this page for budgeting by job code or by department.

To create a departmental budget by position, you must set the budget level to Position Number in the Department Table.

This section discusses how to:

Establish department, job code, or position budgets.
View details about a department’s budget.

Defining Fiscal Year Budgets

Viewing Budget Summary Information

When you're planning next year’s budget, you can retrieve information from previous planning sessions. However, you may want a more condensed view of the information than what you can get from the individual pages. You need summaries of what is happening (or has happened) with positions or departmental budgets. Human Resources offers you some quick ways to review this data. You can access pages containing prior and current budget data to help prepare for the next round of budgeting.

When you maintain a departmental budget at the position level, use the Position Budget Status summary to see any differences between budgeted and actual figures for departments. If there is more than one incumbent, you can scroll through their compensation-related data. The summary displays all the figures while the budget period is still open.

When you budget for a department at the department or job code level, you see only actual figures displayed on the page.

This section discusses how to:

View a summary of budgeted and actual figures for departments.
Review detailed salary information.
Display comp rate code information.

Maintaining Your Organizational Structure

With the Manage Positions business process, you can create reporting relationships among positions, showing how they look in hierarchical form. Use this information, either through a report or online, for organizational planning.

Human Resources provides two ways to see positions in hierarchical form:

By entering supervisory position numbers in the Reports To Posn (position) field in the Position Data - Description page, you can generate reports that show position hierarchies.
If you want to see part of your organization chart online, use PeopleSoft Tree Manager to create a position tree, which illustrates position hierarchies.

This section discusses how to:

Establish position hierarchies in Position Data.
Maintain position hierarchies in PeopleSoft Tree Manager.

Establishing Position Hierarchies

You can establish hierarchical information for your entire organization in the Position Data pages by establishing reporting relationships among positions. Assign positions to one another directly, indirectly, or both, where applicable.

Here’s how to set up position hierarchies:

Open the Position Data - Description page.
Establish direct and or indirect (dotted-line) reporting relationships.
1. To establish direct reporting relationships, enter the supervisor’s position number in the Reports To Posn (Position) field on the Position Data, Description page for each position that you create.
2. To establish indirect reporting relationships, select a position number in the Dotted-Line Rpt (report) field on the Position Data - Description page.
Save your changes.

Once you enter all the reporting relationships among positions, run the Build Position Structure SQR (POS006A), which links the positions in the system and creates an organizational hierarchy.

Establishing Direct Reporting Relationships

This data links positions to one another, and establishes reporting relationships among positions. Viewing position hierarchies are especially useful for budgeting and organizational planning.

When Position Management is set to Partial in the Installation Table and the Reports to Position field contains a value in Position Data, the system hides the Supervisor ID in the incumbent Job Data. Otherwise, both fields appear in Job Data until you enter a value in one or the other.

Currently, if you save a position without selecting a position number in the Reports To Posnfield, the system issues a warning message. You don’t have to enter a position number after you acknowledge the message. But if you want to require this field for all positions, change the warning message to an error message. The system won't allow you to save the data without an entry in this field.

Establishing Indirect Reporting Relationships

You can enter this data for employees who officially report to one position, while on a functional basis they also work for another position.

For example, Joe Conrad, a computer technician, officially reports to the Plant Manager in Milwaukee, but functionally he works for the Computer Services Manager in the head office. Enter the Computer Services Manager position number in the Dotted-Line Rpt field to reflect this situation.

Establishing Reporting Hierarchies by Creating a Top Position

To establish reporting hierarchies, you must create a top position that reports to itself.

To establish a top position:

Add the top position.
Save the top position.
Reopen the top position and enter the top position number in the Reports To field on the Position Data - Description page.
Save the top position again.

Maintaining Position Hierarchies in PeopleSoft Tree Manager

If you want to represent a portion of your organizational structure graphically, create position hierarchies in PeopleSoft Tree Manager. It enables you to view all the positions in hierarchical order at the levels that you designate, such as the top five levels of management. This is useful for what-if scenarios in organizational planning. For planning at the department level, create a position tree with only the positions in a particular department.

Note. Review the PeopleSoft Tree Manager documentation for a full, detailed discussion about PeopleSoft Tree Manager before you attempt to modify or create Position Trees. This section discusses using PeopleSoft Tree Manager to define and maintain Position Trees in Human Resources and is not an exhaustive discussion about the use of PeopleSoft Tree Manager.

Within PeopleSoft Tree Manager you can also view incumbent and position data in the context of the department or other part of the organization you’re viewing. To do so, click a position number to display the Position Data pages.

Note. PeopleSoft recommends that you use the Tree Manager for position trees only if your company is small or, if your organization is large, you plan to only represent a few levels of management. You can also create separate position trees that incorporate small portions of your organization. Otherwise, generate the report, POS006, to manage and view your reporting hierarchies.

Building Position Trees

How to create a new position tree is described in the PeopleSoft Tree Manager documentation. Enter the following data in the Tree Definition and Properties page to create a position tree:

Field	Value
Tree Name	Enter a name to help you identify this tree.
Structure ID	Select Position. PeopleSoft delivers the system with this Structure ID set up.
Description	Enter a description of the tree.
Effective Date	Enter the date the tree becomes effective.
Status	Select the status of the tree.
Category	Select the category of the tree.
Use of Levels	Select Strictly Enforced if your levels consist of only one type of entity. For example, only Regions report to the Company level, and only Divisions report to Regions. Select Loosely Enforced if the entities combine different types of entities. For example, both Regions and Divisions report to the Company level. Select Not Used if your security structure is very flat and you don’t need to set up groupings of units in levels.
All Detail Values in this Tree	Leave this blank.
Allow Duplicate Detail Values	Leave this blank.

Inserting Nodes

Once you’ve created the basic tree structure, add the nodes. In a position tree, each node represents a position, defined on the Position Data table. The first node is known as the root node, and is the highest level in the hierarchy or reporting structure.

Running the Organizational Structure Reports

Once you enter all the reporting relationships among positions, run the Build Position Structure SQR to link the positions in the system and create an organizational hierarchy. Run this utility at the following times:

When you first enter the reporting relationships.
Any time that you add new positions.
When you change reporting relationships among existing positions.

You can generate a report listing the relationships in an indented organizational chart format, the Indented Position report.
