Question 1
Your company opened an ice cream shop with position management as the staffing model. You created the original job requisition for eight positions, but now realize you need five more positions.
How do you update the system to meet this requirement?
Under position management, each worker occupies a distinct position. If the approved hiring requirement increases from eight to thirteen, the existing job requisition should be edited so that the number of openings equals thirteen.
Changing the staffing model to job management would be a fundamental organizational-design change and is neither necessary nor appropriate for increasing the number of openings. Hiring multiple workers into one position conflicts with the one-worker-per-position structure of position management. An Additional Data step can capture supplemental information but does not increase the requisition's authorized openings.
Editing the original requisition retains a single hiring record for the same staffing requirement while increasing its capacity by five positions. The transaction remains subject to the configured Job Requisition business process, including any approvals required when the number of openings changes. Administrators should also confirm that the necessary positions exist or are created through the applicable staffing configuration and that budget or headcount controls support the increase.
