This tool makes changes in all affected portlets. Before: The Hire Date Correction function was only available to customers who either had not enabled the Time Off feature at all or had limited the feature scope to Time Off for Leave of Absence Only.

This enables customers (if Position Hierarchy is leading) that employee and position hierarchy are in sync, if the directs are transferred during a termination. So far, the transfer of directs was just a user based decision and could therefore lead to inconsistencies in people and position hierarchy. Customers can decide as per their need to: 1. transfer [the directs ](https://www.youtube.com/LorenzoDataSolutions)as before( NO) 2. default the transfer according to the position hierarchy (Yes-Optional) 3. always transfer the directs according to position hierarchy. (Yes-Always) **Note: – it is important, that every employee to be transferred has a position assignment and that the supervisor in employee’s jobinfo is the supervisor based on position hierarchy. Otherwise a manual correction is required! – If the transfer of directs according to position hierarchy is chosen, the threshold defined in position management is decisive for synchronous or asynchronous sync **Prerequisites ** Position Management Settings / Hierarchy Adaptation / _Reassign Direct Reports According to Position Hierarchy on Termination Screen ![](data:image/gif,GIF89a%01%00%01%00%80%00%00%00%00%00%FF%FF%FF%21%F9%04%01%00% 00%00%00%2C%00%00%00%00%01%00%01%00%00%02%01D%00%3B) Position Management #### 5.Company Structure Overview **What is it? ** Sorting option for users in Company Structure Overview (CSO) **Why is it important? ** Currently the entities in the chart are displayed ‘randomly’ but from now on user can define a sorting that [guarantees](https://www.lorenzo-datasolutions.com/online-training-for-sap-successfactors/) a high recognition.
