How to Change Department Details

Document number: 17063

 

The Department Change Request function allows Managers, HR Business Partners and Controllers to make changes to existing departments using the Department Change Application within Human Resources Self-Service. 

The type of department change request a user can submit depends on the user's role. Controllers have the ability to submit manager, description, location, status and rollup changes. HR Business Partners and Managers can submit manager and description changes only.

Changes do not become effective immediately. All requests must go through the established approval process that includes approval from FP&A, HR Employee Information Management, and the Security Office.
