Job Positions: Assign employee
This article covers: Assign employee.
Before you start
- Access. You need access to Core HR > Job Positions. If you do not see it in the menu, ask your administrator for the role that covers this area.
- These lists must already have entries, because the window picks from them: employees (add one).
Steps
Open Core HR > Job Positions.
Select Assign employee.
In the window Assign an employee fill in the fields below.

| Field | Required | What it means and what to enter |
|---|---|---|
| Find the employee (name or code) | No | Optional. Type part of a name or code to narrow the list next to it. |
| Employee | Yes | Choose from the list. |
| Assignment type | No | Choose one: Primary (holds the position), Acting, Interim, Temporary, Secondment. |
| Start date (today or earlier) | No | The first day the record is in force. |
| Reason | No | Say why. The text is kept with the record and shown to whoever reads or approves it. |
- Select the confirm button.
The window closes and the table shows the result.
TIP
A star after a field name means the screen requires it.
If something does not work
- The button "Assign employee" is missing. You do not have the permission, or the page is not in your menu. See Access above.
- A list in the window is empty. The records it picks from do not exist yet. Add them first: Employees.
- The window will not close or shows a message. Read the message: it names the field that is missing or not allowed.
