We initially set up our system wherein each employee had a unique position code. (one to one relationship).. We are being told by our Empl self service consultant that this is not a good setup and that we need to change this wherein there is position code that applies to more than one employee. Changing now is going to be a nightmare.

Can anyone chime in on the pros and cons of our current process vs the new process that is being recommended.

The Lawson implementation consultants are the ones that originally requested that we do the one to one in the first place.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Hi Beverly, I think your initial implementation consultants did you a disservice. I see no reason why you would want to have a one-to-one relationship, since the one-to-many relationship is why position management really exists (i.e. being able to budget/manage by position). Why do you think changing will be a nightmare? I'm guessing that it's because you'll have to re-code/re-categorize all of your positions into a new coding scheme?
