What is the function of the "directly reports to position" setting when configuring positions?

Reporting lines can be assigned in terms of the position defined. This can be overwritten on the employee's Position screen.

      Navigate > Configuration > Human Resources > Organisation Structure > Position Management

Step 1: Select the Position to which the Report to Position needs to be added.

      

Step 2: Choose a position from the dropdown list by selecting the ellipsis next to the "directly reports to position" option.

      

      

The Directly reports to Position will display under the Additional tab on the employees' Position screen.

      

Note! If there is more than one person employed in the directly reports to position, the directly reports to person field on the Position screen can be used.
