Close Positions

Close Positions

Configure the
Close Position
business process and security policy in the Staffing functional area.
You can close unfilled positions to make them permanently unavailable for staffing, with this exception:
  • If you use job requisitions, you can't close a position with an open job requisition.
For position management organizations, you can also close positions when you:
  • Terminate employees or change their jobs.
  • End additional jobs and international assignments.
You can't open or close individual jobs with job management.
The
Create EIB
task enables you to set up an inbound integration and generate a spreadsheet template from the
Close Position
web service. To close many positions at the same time, use the
Create EIB
task.
To freeze positions temporarily, use the
Manage Position Freeze
task.
  1. Access the
    Close Position
    task.
  2. Select the
    Position
    that you want to close.
  3. Specify a
    Close Reason
    and a
    Close Date
    .
    The close date is the last date that you can hire or move a worker into the position.
You can't reopen a closed position. If you want to staff the position later, either rescind the closure or create a position.
