  1. Go to ConsolePeoplePositions and find the vacant position.

  2. Select Fill.
  3. Under Who holds it, type a name and choose the person.
  4. Set the date they start in it under From.
  5. Select Fill it.

To vacate a position, select the button beside its holder that ends their time in it. The position becomes vacant from today.

Good to Know

  • A position has one holder at a time, and a person holds one position at a time. Filling a new one ends their time in the old one.
  • Each move is a line in the person's job history.
  • Their job title stays as it was until you change it.
  • To fill a position from a future date, such as a promotion, use Change job on their HR record.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • There's no Fill button. The position isn't vacant. It may be frozen or closed: edit it and set its Status to vacant.
  • The person isn't offered. Only people who are active in the directory can hold a position.
