Concept: Move Manager's Team
When you use the
Change Job
business process to move a manager to a new
organization, you can also move the teams that report to that manager. Workday displays the:- Teams that are eligible to move.
- Teams that are ineligible to move due to a future-dated change.
- Person who will manage the teams if you don't move them.
Moved teams retain their current:
- Headcounts.
- Job openings.
- Job requisitions.
- Subordinate organizations.
Assign Superior
subprocess for each eligible team, with its own workflow and approvals. You can cancel,
rescind, or correct the individual Assign Superior
subprocesses as needed.
However, you can't reverse the original decision to move, or not move, a manager's teams
by correcting Change Job
events. To reverse that decision, you would have to
cancel or rescind the Change Job
business process and start again.You don't see the option to move teams when you:
- Move a worker who isn't a manager.
- Keep a manager in the same supervisory organization.
- Move a manager who also manages an organization that is a superior of the proposed organization.
- Move a manager whose supervisory organization has an organization hierarchy event in progress. Example: An in-progressCreate Subordinateevent.
- Add roles to theStaffing Actions: Move Manager's Teamdomain. This domain inherits its initial security policy from theStaffing Actionsdomain.
- Modify the default definition for theChange Jobbusiness process to include 2 additional steps:Assign Roles - Change Assignments for WorkerandChange Superior Organization.Both steps must come after theChange Jobcompletion step.
Step | Details |
|---|---|
(Optional) Assign Roles - Change Assignments for
Worker
| Ensures that the worker has the manager role before you move the
manager's teams. All of the worker's previous roles automatically populate,
including the manager role. You can remove the default role assignments, add
new roles, or reassign roles as needed. Alternatively, you can use the
Copy Role Assignments step for Job Management organizations
when you have the Change Job Use Default Organizations for
Job Management check box enabled.Both Assign
Roles - Change Assignments for Worker and Copy Role
Assignments must come before the Change Superior
Organization step. |
Change Superior Organization
| Workday suggests that you include an approval step in the Assign
Superior business process definition; otherwise the step completes
automatically as part of the Change Job workflow. Ensure that you
grant permission on the Approve action for the Assign Superior
business process as well. |
