Cause

This is expected behavior. This fields cannot be hidden or made mandatory in Terminate or Transfer screen, neither can the options be limited in the dropdown menu. The values here are hard coded and cannot be limited or modified.

Resolution

Note: The "Transfer Direct Report" pop-up is only applicable for Termination as it is tied to assignment and unassignment of position. This will not appear in changing manager's location or other objects within the Job Information.
