2673264 - Enum field on Position object to indicate creation source of a Position

What are the values that will be stored in standard field 'creationSource' under Position object?

Employee Central - Position Management

• Add a standard field (Enum) for Position object, which indicates of the source of creation.
• This could be for example Operational Workforce Planning, Position Transfer oder Mass Copy form Position OrgChart.
• The field is invisible by default and the field is not set for new Positions created in Position Org Chart or via 'Manage Data' or 'Manage Position'.
• Adding this field to Position object allows OWP to select only those Positions for reporting purposes that are created by Operational Headcount Planning. So, customers can differentiate, whether a Position is being created based on a plan versus 'off cycle' in Position Management.
• Customers can create rules specifying a special workflow for Positions coming from a plan versus Positions created directly in Position Org Chart.

A standard ENUM field is provided under Position object definition which can be used to check how a Position got created.
