Adding PCN and position notes 

Shortcut/mask: HRTBPN

You use the PCN/Position Notes window to add descriptive information, such as notes, requirements, and restrictions associated with a position control number. You must set up the PCN codes before you complete this procedure. Position control numbers (PCN) are used for budget checking. Human Resources (HR) totals full-time equivalents (FTE), allocated person units (APU), or dollar amounts for the position and compares it to the budgeted amount. Totals are calculated based on employee pay assignments.

Complete the following steps to add PCN notes:

1. Open the window by typing HRTBPN in the Search field and pressing Enter.
2. Select Add(+).
3. Complete the following fields:

• Action: Select the code that represents the reason for adding or changing the note.
• Entity: Select the organization or part of the organization the PCN is associated with.

Notes: Entities represent parts of your organization that must maintain a separate set of general ledger accounts, such as a library. Entity codes identify each unique entity within your organization.

• PCN: Enter the PCN this note is attached to.
• Position: Enter the position number related to the PCN you are working with.

Note: Position numbers identify what the employee does and where he or she works. You can attach multiple position numbers to one PCN.

• Position Description: Text attached to the position code that identifies the position.
• Notes: Enter information you want to note about this PCN, such as requirements, restrictions, or safety regulations.

4. Select Save Changes.

Result: You have added PCN or position notes for reference in the Human Resources subsystem.
