PA06.1 - Position Rules



Use Position Rules (PA06.1) to define rules that indicate how you will
use positions for reporting and budgeting.


NOTE  You cannot delete a company level rule if a process or department
level rule still exists for that company.



**Processing Effect

Position rules have dates on which the rules take effect. These effective
dates let you



- keep a historical record of the rules you have applied and




- provide flexibility in the timing of changes to your rules.



When you change position rules, you can either add a new rule with a
new effective date or change the existing rule.
If you change the existing rule without making a new rule with a new
effective date, you will not have a historical record of the change.
Therefore,
consider adding a new a rule with a new effective date whenever you change
any rules that could affect future counts and calculations such as count
category,
minimum and maximum values, and use of authorized counts.
When you add a new effective dated company rule, you also need to re-define
any process level or department rules for that company. This is true even
if the rules at the process level or department are not changing.



**More Information

Additional rules related to positions are established in Company (HR00.1)
Employee Status Codes (HR03.1), Requisition Status Code (HR04.8), and Position
Item Attributes (HR10.2).
