Screens to Set Up for Requests to Work

When using the Request to Work feature, there are several screens that need to be set up. Some of this information may already be completed, if it is used with other features in the system.

Click on the link in the grid below to open a page with more information on the required set up.

Authorization roles can be created to customize the feature access for employees. These can be replicated and modified from Standard roles, or newly created.

Roles can be assigned at the organization unit level to grant access to the Request to Work feature to all Primary Home employees.

Organization Unit - Indicators

An indicator setting in the organization unit screen determines whether employees can search for schedule openings where they have the required licenses or job class. For example, a registered nurse can search for any schedule openings based on the "RN" job class or "RN" license, even if he/she does not have a position in the organization unit with the opening.
