Position Synchronization in Two-Tier Employment
Model
Inheritance of values in an assignment from the values
specified in the associated position.
By default, position synchronization is not enabled in a two-tier
employment model.
You have to enable it using either the Edit Enterprise or the
Manage Legal Entity pages.

Copyright 2015, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. 7 - 23

Enabling Position Synchronization

You can enable position synchronization either at the

enterprise or the legal employer levels.
If you enable position synchronization at both levels, then the
settings specified at the legal employer level takes
precedence over the enterprise level settings.

Assignment Override

If you enable position synchronization, assignments inherit

specified values from the associated position.
You can also specify if the value can be overridden at the
assignment level.
If you prevent override at the assignment level, users cannot
update the specified attributes that the assignment has
inherited from the position.
If you allow override, users can update any attribute values
inherited from position. At the assignment level, if you change
the Synchronize from Position attribute to No, then you can
update all attributes but the assignment will not be
synchronized with the position.

generation method at the legal employer level.
