Resolution

Report - Table:

  • By default, the Succession with Employee Central Ad Hoc Reports (used when EC Position Management is enabled) do not include a People or Position pill.
  • It is possible to enable the Position pill for the Succession with Employee Central Table Reports.
  • This allows to generate the reports filtering by the position hierarchy.
  • To enable this feature, the following switch in Provisioning:
    • Provisioning > Choose Company > Company Settings > Enable Succession Position Pill [Not Ready for Sales/Production]
  • If you are not in touch with your implementation partner and do not have access to provisioning, please create a support case  to enable this feature and quote this KBA

Report - Canvas:

  • We currently do not support People Scope (or Position scope) in the following domains in Canvas:
    1. Inclusive Succession (MDF Position based nominations, with Employee Central)
    2. Succession (MDF Position based nominations, with Employee Central)
    3. Succession History (MDF Position based nominations, with Employee Central)
