Read about what positions and jobs are and how they are connected to each other.
To create a position, you go to the position page in the organization administration and click the new button if you want to create one from scratch, or the copy position if you wish to make a copy of an existing position.
As a position is connected to a job, you always need to create the job before you create the position, and then connect the job to the position.
The positions contains several tabs:
General where you connect the position to a job, department and other fields.
In position duration you set the date when the position is active from and if you retire the position.
Reports to position is the tab where you build the position hierarchy, you set which position this position
In worker assignment you can register the a worker in the position.
In the relationships tab you can set up relationships which can be outside of the standard positions hierarchy.
Payroll is where you set some information about the how often and whom pays.
The workers’ compensations tab you set the compensation state.
Labor unit is where you register information if the Union agreement is needed.
The last tab is the Financial dimensions where you set information about what legal entities the position is under and other financial information.
To assign a position to a worker you can do it from the position page in organization administration by clicking a position without a worker and pressing hire in the top-menu.
This opens a right bar where you can register a new worker.
You can also do the same from the open positions tab in personnel management. or from the candidates to hire which comes from Attract.
Remember that you also can use the Excel Add-in to create a new worker and connect a worker to a position or create a new position.
