Title: The title is used to specify a district description for the position.
Code: The code, sometimes referred to as the position control code or billet code, is an internal code which is usually made up of numbers and/or letters that internally describe something about the position. This code might describe how the position is funded, the type of position (instructional, non-instructional, administrative, etc.), or any number of things. Typically a district will have an internal scheme for creating these codes.
Authorized: This field, along with the Hrs/Day field, control how many FTE employees can be assigned to a particular position. Typically this number is a whole number and represents the total number of full time employees that can be assigned to this position, but this number could be part of a whole number also. For example, if the district only budgeted for a ½ day teacher's aide, the authorized employees could be entered as 0.5.
Available Hour(s): This number represents the number of available positions (again based on Hrs/day) that can be assigned as a job to employees.
Available Unit(s): This number represents the number of available position units that can be assigned as a job to employee(s).
FMLA: This number represent the number of employees out on Family Medical Leave or Extended Leave. Since employees on FMLA/extended leave need to have their positions held for them this is a way the system represents that this position is not currently “Filled," but is not “Available” either.
Filled Hour(s): This number represents the number of employees currently filling this position. This number can show decimals, if, for example, a person is working less than the “Hrs/Day” specified.
Filled Unit(s): This number represents the number of positions filled. For example, if there are two teacher positions available and one was filled, a 1 would display. If both positions were filled, a number 2 would display.
Begin: Enter the starting date of the position in the text box.
End: Enter the end date of the position in the text box.
Job Posted: This check box is selected if the job has been posted in order for employees to apply for said position.
Job Notes: You can enter any job related notes in this text box.

Decision package codes are set up via Setup > District Codes > Decision Packages tab.
Planned End Date: Enter the expected end date of the position in the text box.
Allow 1 extra allocation until: This date field can be filled in to allow for a 1 FTE temporary overfill of this position up until the date specified. This feature can be utilized if the district allows an overlap with an outgoing and incoming employee in the same position so that the two can work together before the outgoing employee leaves.
Jobs: This multi-select field is used to specify which job title(s) are valid for this position. Job Titles are set up via Payroll > Maintenance > Job Codes. These titles can be user defined and mapped to the equivalent state code for reporting purposes or the district may choose to just use the state codes. You can select multiple, which allows you to budget/track positions at a more generic level, for example, “elementary teachers for school A,” to better utilize position control.
Slots: The slot determines the district codes, whether hourly or salary, number of days/hours worked per year.
Pay Type: The pay type associated with the position defines elements like the number of total pays, calendars, start and stop dates, etc. The same pay type is usually associated with groups of employees, like Teachers or Administrators. Pay types are defined via Payroll > Maintenance > Main Tables > Pay Types.
Bargaining Unit: The bargaining unit automatically populates based on the pay type selected and the union that applies to the position. Bargaining units are set up via Setup > District Codes > Bargaining Units tab.
Facility: Displays the facility where positions are applicable.
Hrs/Day: This number represents the number of hours per day for which the “Authorized Employees” are budgeted.
The Authorized Employees and Hrs/Day correlation are important to understand. The two values together represent the the number of employee hours which are budgeted/authorized for the position. Therefore, if a position has a 1 in the Authorized Employees field and an 8 in the Hrs/Day field, there could actually have more than 1 employee active in that position. This is because the position is budgeted/authorized to have 1 x 8 = 8 employee hours. With that in mind, the position could have 4 employees all assigned 2 hrs/day.
Workman's Comp: The workers compensation field is used to specify the workers compensation group for which that the position should be reported. Valid workers compensation values are defined via Setup > Government Codes > Workmans Comp.
TKL: Select the timekeeping location or code linked to the position from the pull-down. TKL codes are set up via Setup > Government Codes > TKL Codes tab.

Employees in said position will be capable of submitting special requests themselves via Punch In/Out section on their Portal; special requests includes unique events or activities such as field trips, athletic events, covering another teacher's class, fundraisers, etc. Note: Special Request(s) can also be assigned via Human Resources > Employee > Jobs.
Timecards Auto Dockage: You can select Ignore from the pull-down so salary employees will not be docked automatically when their total clock-in time is less than the expected hours worked for their position. If you select Negative Overtime, then wages will be docked if the employee has clocked in for less than the expected total hours.

The user will be responsible for reviewing and approving Time & Attendance via Human Resources > Time & Attendance Approval.

Redlined: Select the Redlined check box to ensure that as employees leave this position, their allocation will be redlined or removed from the authorized employee count. This means that the position will not be refilled once vacated. The current employee can continue to hold the position, but once they terminate or transfer, the position will be effectively closed and removed from the list of available positions. This is often used for positions that are being phased out or eliminated.
