Mass Change Organization Assignments

Mass Change Organization Assignments

  • Define the organization types that support staffing in the
    Maintain Organization Types
     report.
    Before you can assign workers to a costing or custom organization in a staffing transaction, you must select the
    Show in Change Organization Assignments and Job Requisition
     check box.
  • Configure the
    Change Organization Assignments for Worker
     business process and security policy in the Organizations and Roles functional area. All roles that have initiate permission on the business process must also have edit permissions on the
    Staffing Organizations: Header
     domain.
Make mass organization assignments or individual assignment changes for an individual worker or a position.
When you create or edit supervisory organizations and location hierarchies, you can specify which organizations are available to assign by organization type.
  1. Access the
    Change Organization Assignments
     task.
  2. Specify which workers to include in the change.
  3. Select a new proposed organization for each existing current organization.
    • Make mass assignment changes that apply to all workers from the prompt in the
      Override Organization Assignments
       section at the top of the page. When you select an organization, it's displayed in the
      Proposed Organization
       field for all workers selected in the list.
    • Make individual assignment changes from the prompt in the
      Proposed Organization
       field for each worker.
    Available organizations are based on the allowed values that you specified on the supervisory organization intersected with the allowed values on the location hierarchy.
    Selection lists are based on the allowed values that you specified on the supervisory organization intersected with the allowed values on the location hierarchy.
    If you restricted the
    Allowed Organizations
     for supervisory organizations and location hierarchies, the selection lists contain the intersection of the allowed organizations for both. If the location of a position is in multiple location hierarchies, the selection list is limited to the intersection of allowed organizations across all location hierarchies as of the
    Effective Date
    .
    If you leave the
    Proposed Organization
     blank, Workday deletes the existing
    Current Organization
     of that type.
