Report Prompts (HRP986)

When running the Separation of Duties – Workflow report, users will be presented prompts based on their security access to identify parameters and sets of data to be included in the report results. If a person has access to both organizations or Major Administrative Units (MAU) and departments/sub-orgs, they will see a prompt for organizations to select and a cascading prompt with departments and/or sub-orgs within those organizations to select. If a person only has access to departments/sub-orgs, they will see a prompt with just those departments/sub-orgs to select from.

Three types of searches can be performed:

  • Summary Search: Returns a summary page of all employees that meet the organizational and enterprise structure selections in the prompts.
  • Employee(s) Specific Search: Returns a summary page of the specific employee(s) selected and are within the organizations the user has access to.
  • Initiator(s) Specific Search:  Returns a summary page of the employee work items initiated by the specific initiator(s) selected and are within the organizations the user has access to.
