Activating Positions

A position must be activated before it can be assigned to person records. Before activating a position, make sure it is the proper time to activate it.

Expiration Impacts

Once activated, the position can be attached to any Person record.
During activation, any roles attached to the Position record that have not yet been activated will also activate along with the position. They can be deactivated if necessary.
Once activated, the position cannot be deleted from the system. For additional information, see Expiring Positions.
