PA42


PA42.1 - Requisition

**Form Purpose
Use Requisition (PA42.1) to create a requisition for a job or position.

The requisition may be for a new position or replacement position. If you are
hiring many employees for the same type of job or position, you can create a
single requisition for all of the openings.

You indicate whether requisition numbers are automatically assigned on the
Personnel form tab of Company (HR00.1). If automatic numbering is used, leave
the requisition number blank when adding a new requisition record.

You can default position information you defined in Position (PA02.1). To
default position information, enter values in the Status, Requested, Opened,
Needed, and Position fields and select the Fill Defaults form action. Defaults
are displayed for you to review. You must perform an Add or change form action
to accept the defaults and any other changes you have made to the requisition.
You can  change defaulted values if you indicate in Position Item Attributes
(HR10.2) that an override is allowed.

**Processing Effect
The system uses the date entered in the Needed field to find the correct
budget record and position rules. If your position rules indicate that you use
formal positions, the position you are defining a requisition for must exist
as of the Needed date. If you use formal positions but allow a blank on
requisitions, a position is not required to open a requisition. The position
must be defined before you fill the requisition or employ an applicant. This
option lets you create a requisition for a new position before all the details
of the position are worked out.
