After describing your mass move, you must identify source positions to be moved.

   To identify your source positions:

1. In the Mass Move window, choose the Positions button.

2. In the resulting Find Positions window, select source jobs and the source positions associated with those jobs.

   You can select from a list of existing jobs and positions in the source organization, or you can use generic search criteria (wildcards) to identify a pool of source jobs and source positions from which you will select your source positions in Step 3.

3. Choose the Find button.

   When the Mass Move - Positions window is populated with information, the source and target organizations you defined in the Mass Move window appear in display fields.

4. If you used search criteria to identify a pool of source jobs and positions, make sure that the list includes all of the source jobs and positions you want to include in this mass move.

   Attention: If you want to add source jobs or positions to this list, you must delete this mass move and define a new mass move; source jobs and positions cannot be added to this list.

5. In the Move check boxes, check each of the source positions you want to move.

   Assignments associated with unchecked source positions will not be affected by the mass move in any way.

6. If you want to deactivate any source position on the effective date for the mass move, check the Deactivate Old Position check box when that position is selected.

   Selected: Deactivating a source position does not delete it from the HRMS database, but enters the mass move effective date as the end date for the position.

   Note: If you decide to deactivate source positions, check the level of the Position Elimination Rule for your organization. HRMS delivers this business rule with a default level of Error, which causes your mass move to fail for positions with active assignments subsequent to your proposed elimination date. If the Level of this rule is Error in your source organization, use the Configurable Business Rules function to create a new business rule within the scope of that organization. Use Position Elimination Rule as the Reference Rule, and set the level to Warning or Ignore. You can then run your mass move.

   Unselected: Leaving this check box unchecked enables you to enter assignments to the source position after the effective date of the mass move, even though the source position may have no assignments immediately following the mass move.

   Attention: Unchecking the Move check box for a record restores the original values for that record.
