Create a Non-Banded Job (table T710)

Trigger:

There is a need to create a new non-banded job that has a salary range (to include minimum, maximum and reference salaries) - table 710.

 

Business Process Procedure Overview

The process of creating a job occurs at the direction of the Office of State Personnel through authority granted by the State Personnel Commission.  OSP develops jobs to provide common treatment in the selection, compensation and other employment processes for State government entities subject to the State Personnel Act.  A job is a generalized description of duties and responsibilities sufficiently similar in duty assignment to justify that common treatment.  OSP must provide the following: name, abbreviation, job family, job branch, EEO code, State SOC code, retirement code, effective date and FLSA status.

To create a new position, transaction PQ03 is used. Required infotypes for the job object will need to be created with the required validity dates. Once the job is created, the requesting party is notified with the job number and description.

 For Graded Judicial there is only one level with a grade - GR.

 For Flat Rate Judicial there is only one level with a grade - FR.

 Outlined below are the list of combinations and their expected outcomes in IT9025 based on the planned compensation stored either on the position or on the related job.

T710 - Graded/Flat Rate/T Grade and X Grade

01/01 - Graded and Annual salaries

01/04 - Graded and Physician

01/08 - Graded and Education

01/09 - Graded and Judicial

01/11 - Graded and Hourly

03/09 - Flat Rate and Judicial

03/14 - Flat Rate and Flat Rate

04/01 - T Grade and Annual Salaries

05/05 - X Grade and X Grade

For the combinations above, the expected results are:

1. Class range is populated from either the planned compensation of a position or from the planned compensation of the job (if the position does not have a planned compensation record).

2. The class range populated would be from the level encompassing the whole range irrespective of the level stored on the position or the job.  For example, if the job and position have the same pay grade but the position has a different level than the level that encompasses the whole range, the range populated on IT9025 will still be the level that encompasses the whole range.  If the position has a different grade than that of the job and the level stored on the position does not encompass the whole range, then the range on IT9025 will still be populated from the level tied to the pay grade of the position that encompasses the whole range.  For example, GR for Graded and T Grade, FR for Flat Rate, and XG for X Grade.

3. Class range is grayed out for editing.

4. Salary grade equivalent and competency level fields are grayed out.

T 710 - Banded

02/05 - Banded and Pilot Bands

02/07 - Banding and Skill Based Pay

02/10 - Banding and Lottery

02/06 - Banding and Career Banded

For the combinations above, the expected results are:

1. Class range is populated from either the planned compensation of the position or from the planned compensation of the job, if the position does not have a planned compensation record.

2. The class range populated would be from the level encompassing the whole range irrespective of the level stored on the position.  For example, if the job and position have the same pay grade but the position has a different level than the level that encompasses the whole range, the range populated on IT9025 will still be the level that encompasses the whole range.  If the position has a different grade than that of the job and the level stored on the position does not encompass the whole range, then the range on IT9025 will still be populated from the level tied to the pay grade of the position that encompasses the whole rage.  For example, 02/05 = Level PB, 02/07 = Level 00, 02/10 = Level 00, or 02/06 = Level CB.

3. Class range is open for editing.

4. Salary grade equivalent field is open for editing.

5. Competency level field is grayed out for all banded positions except for the Banded/Career Banding combination.  For this combination, pick from levels A, J, or C for the competency level.

 

 

 

Tips and Tricks

 

· Non-Banded Jobs include: Graded, Flat Rate, T Grade, and X Grade Jobs (Explained further on).

· All jobs must be assigned a retirement code, State SEC code, EEO category, effective date, job branch and job family.

· The internal number range for a job is 31000000 through 31999999, and each job number is automatically created by the system.

· The external number range for a job is 30000000 through 30999999, and was used for conversion data.

· Other than the number range, there is logic attached to the job ID.
