Job Level Overview

Job levels are used to define the approval process in human capital management and other modules.

When an HR transaction, such as a job change or promotion, is initiated, it is routed through an approval process according to configured approval criteria. These rules include job-level-based line manager hierarchy approver.

The job level-based line manager hierarchy is used to determine the appropriate approvers based on the reporting relationships between employees and their supervisors. For example, if an employee at the mid-level job level requests a job change, the approval rules might require approval from the employee's supervisor, who is at the senior-level job level. The job level-based line manager hierarchy would ensure that the transaction is routed to the correct line manager based on their job level and reporting relationship with the employee.

In conclusion, the job level-based line manager hierarchy and approval rules work together to ensure that HR transactions are routed to the appropriate approvers based on job level and reporting relationships.
