The Hierarchy, My List, and Search pages are collectively known as the Enter Process pages.
The Hierarchy page is generally the starting point for all manager self-service functions. It enables managers to select a user record for processing in SSHR.
The navigation options from the People in Hierarchy page depend on the path that the manager has taken to navigate to the page. There are two possible paths:
From the generic Manager Actions menu
In this case, the manager first selects a person the from People in Hierarchy page or the People in My List page. This takes the manager to the Actions page. A context-sensitive list the SSHR modules or actions available for the selected person.
From a specific manager self-service menu item
In this case, the manager selects a specific SSHR function and then selects the person for processing in the People in Hierarchy or People in My List page. When the manager selects a person, the selected function appears.
The People in Hierarchy region displays a hierarchical view of the current manager's subordinates. Users can expand or collapse the lower levels of management as desired.
By default, the hierarchy uses a supervisor hierarchy (based either on the supervisor or the supervisor assignment).
When you move the mouse over the Details icon, you can view the photo of the worker, and details such as employment and contact in a pop-up window.
The My List functionality enables managers to store people whose records they frequently access in a list for quick record retrieval. When a manager searches for a person, they can click the Add to My List button to add that person to the list. When the manager next selects the My List option from the People in Hierarchy page, the names of these saved employees are displayed in a table. A pop-up window displays the people in My List when you place the mouse over the My List link.
As an alternative to the simple search, you can select Advanced Search to specify advanced search criteria. When you select this option, the following standard search fields are available:
First Name
Last Name
Assignment Number
Job
If these fields are not sufficient, you can add additional fields from a list. You can also specify whether the search must include all criteria or whether records that meet only some of the criteria are valid. If required, you can save the search criteria to use again.
Note: When you search for employees using the Basic or Advanced Search, SSHR excludes the log-in person from the results.
A manager can access the personal details for any person included in the Hierarchy or My List simply by clicking the Details icon for the person. SSHR displays the Person Detail view for the person, enabling the manager to display Employment, Salary, Performance, Absence, and Application information for the person. Training information is also available although this tab is hidden as standard. When the Person Details are displayed, the views displayed are summary views. To display more detailed information, expand the view.

If a person has more than one assignment for a given manager, the manager needs to select the Action icon for the relevant assignment in order to carry out the action. Managers can view multiple assignments depending on the setting of the HR:Enable Multiple Assignments in SSHR profile option.
