Reassigning Direct Reports to a managers new record during a Global Transfer
Summary
Reassigning Direct Reports to a managers new record during a Global TransferContent
We had a large group of people that went through a global transfer as of January 1. While the group was transferring, managerial reporting relationships did not change. There were managers transferring that had employees transferring and employees that were staying, but the reporting relationship needed to stay in place. We understand the direct reports need to be reassigned to the managers new assignment and we tried orchestrating the changes from top of the manager hierarchy down, but still ran into big problems.
1) The task would not allow us to reassign employees transferring to their manager that was also transferring. We transferred the manager with an effective date of 1/1/2020 before the employee was transferred on the same effective date. Nothing would come up to reassign the manager.
