PeopleSoft Functional Concepts: Work Force Administration in People soft HCM

PeopleSoft Human Resources Workforce Administration provides the foundation for your human resource management system. The data entered into the Workforce Administration business process is available to all of the PeopleSoft Human Resources business processes as well as the other applications in the PeopleSoft HRMS suite.

The PeopleSoft Human Resources Workforce Administration business process includes five basic steps:

1. Setting up the basic codes and formats needed for the business process. Some of these include setting up the Location Table, Job Code in Position Management, Department Table, and the Department Tree.

2. Adding a person’s human resources record into the system. This includes personal data such as name, address, and employment eligibility; job data such as supervisor, department, and salary; and employment data such as tenure with your organization.

3. Entering additional data into the record. This includes information such as prior work experience, emergency contact information, drivers license information, and volunteer activities.

4. Updating the record.

5. Viewing and reporting on employee data.

Upon completion of this module, you will be able to:

• Add a person.

• Increase the workforce.

• Enter additional data in HR records.

• Manage grievances and disciplinary actions.

• Update person and job information.

• Manage compensation.

• View summary workforce information.

Adding a Person
To create a person record, use the Add a Person page. This lesson provides an overview of
identification assignment, lists common elements, and discusses how to:
• Enter name and biographical data.
• Enter contract information.
• Enter country-specific person data.

• Create organizational relationships and maintain checklists.

Note: You should create and save either a Job Data or a Person of Interest (POI) Relationship
record for a new person at the time you create the new person.

Prior to adding a person into the system, you should perform a Search for Matching Persons.
This is to ensure data integrity by preventing duplicate persons from being created in the system.
This is important because we are now adding some persons (POI & CWR) without Social
Security Numbers.

Upon completion of this lesson, you will be able to:
• Add Employees
• Add a Persons of Interest (POI)

• Contingent Workers

Adding an Employee into a Position

Adding an employee to HR Direct not only requires that we capture their biographical data and
establish the "Person" relationship with the University, they also need to be hired into a position.
This process will take all of the job and position attributes created in the Job Code Table and
Manage Positions and apply them to the employee's job data.
