In MSS using Process Flow; we have to have the current manager kick off the promotion action as they are the only one with access to their direct reports data. They kick off a promotion moving the person to the new dept and new hiring manager. We had hoped to have the current manager fill in only some of the fields for the pa52 action and the new hiring manager fill in the pay rate and other info as a change to the pa52 action.

But, we are stuck on the fact that the system will not allow (through mss) the new manager access to the employees record (since the action is still pending and that employee is not a direct report of that manager as yet).

stuck stuck stuck

Is it possible that PF or MSS would allow us to do this without having to re-program lawson?

Just thinking out loud. Are you initiating the promotion via MSS? Perhaps you could have it trigger a flow that "manually" changes the supervisor structure on HR07 to allow the new manager to then access the action via MSS earlier.
Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

hmm that is an interesting solution, we will certainly look into that. We've outsourced one process flow to Ciber and will see what they come up with on this and report back.

Thanks as always!!

You could also send the promotion to the new manager for approval and when they access it via the Inbasket they should be able to make changes on the PA52 "Folder" that's available there.
