Resolution

Note that once this feature is been enabled you will be able to assign a new position to an employee or changes the FTE of an employee on the Update Employee Records screen and FTE value can also be changed.

You cannot control this via Mass Position field.

If a position is subject to position control, the FTE values of all incumbents assigned to the position may not be higher than the FTE value assigned to the position. This is checked when a new employee is hired

 - The manager assigns a new position to an employee or changes the FTE of an employee on the Update Employee Records screen

 - The position or FTE value is changed in the History

 - The FTE value of the assigned position is changed

 - The system searches for a suitable position when a position transfer or position reclassification is required

If FTE should not be increased, then you need to set Subject to Position Control to "No" for individual positions.
