Create and Manage Job Profile Assignment Types

Job profile assignment types can be used to label the relationship between users and their job profiles. You can use Assignment Types in compliance reporting and when reviewing users' training progress through their learning path. For example, if a user is enrolled in courses required for a specific job profile, and they take extended leave before completing them, you can set the job profile's Assignment Type to Suspended. When administrators run reports or view the Learning Path, the designation can be interpreted appropriately.

Job profile assignments can be seen in the following reports:

  • R116 - Job Profile Status Summary Report by Organization
  • R116NL - Job Profile User Progress by Organization
  • R117 - Job Profile Status Summary Report by Organization (Tabular)
  • R131 - Competency Drilldown Report

To create and manage assignment types you must have unrestricted access to the Job Profiles feature in System Roles (Manage Features > Competency Manager Features).
