You may also want to relate positions to each other. You can relate positions by forming multiple hierarchies of positions to show reporting relationships.
You can create and maintain your reporting structures in two ways. You can use the:
Position Hierarchy window
Position Hierarchy Diagrammer
The Hierarchy Diagrammer, included with Oracle HRMS, enables you to create your position hierarchies graphically, and make intuitive drag-and-drop changes to them.
Position hierarchies are very like organization hierarchies. You can set up a primary hierarchy and multiple secondary hierarchies to show reporting lines, including 'dotted line' reporting, and to control access to information. Position hierarchies are dated, so you can create future-dated versions, and can retain previous versions for historical information.
You can add new positions to an existing hierarchy, or change positions in a hierarchy. You can also delete a position hierarchy, but you must check that it is not tied in to other working areas of the system.
