Construct ESS - My Team

Overview

Organizational charts can be used to show the structure of your organization. They visually display the company's users, roles, contact info, and hierarchical relationships. This allows new employees to quickly understand the reporting structure of the company: who they should report to, who to contact with regards to particular issues, and who they will be working with in the future.

After setting up org charts, they can be viewed in the Construct ESS app via the My Team option.

My Team in Construct ESS

Whether organizational hierarchy has been set up through HCM or Payroll, pressing the My Team link shows all members of the employee's team, along with who they report to and who reports to them.

Organizational Chart Setup

There are two ways to set up employee hierarchy with CMiC software:

  1. In the Human Resources module using HCM positions.

  2. In the Payroll module using the Job Classification and Direct Reports To fields.

System Options

How employee hierarchy is set up depends on the below checkbox, located in the Human Resource tab of the System Options screen in the System Data module.

Pgm: SYSOPT – System Options; standard Treeview path: System > Setup > System Options – Human Resource tab

HCM Position Synchronize from Payroll - Checkbox

Check this box to allow for the automatic synchronization of employees with a corresponding position code within the organizational structure.

Under the HCM tab of the Employee Profile screen in the US Payroll module, once the Job Classification field is filled, employees can be assigned positions. Only open positions are displayed in the Position field’s LOV for the specified job classification. The Direct Manager and Senior Manager fields in the Employee Profile are automatically populated based on the controlling position ID set up in the Reports To field in the Positions screen in HCM.

If this box is checked then it is required to create a position through the HCM module. If this box is unchecked then the user's job classification and direct report should be entered in the Employee Profile screen.

HR Setup

If the 'HCM Position Synchronize from Payroll' box is checked, further setup should be done in the Position Details tab of the Positions screen in the HCM module, as shown below.

Positions; standard Treeview path: HCM > Position Control > Positions – Position Details tab

Here, assign the employee to a position and job classification and select who the employee reports to. Once saved, these details are shown in the HCM tab of the Employee Profile.

Pgm: PYEMPLOY – Employee Profile; standard Treeview path: US Payroll > Setup > Employees > Employee Profile – HCM tab

Payroll Setup

If the 'HCM Position Synchronize from Payroll' box is not checked, the Job Classification and Direct Report To fields should be entered directly in the Employee Profile in the Payroll module.

Pgm: PYEMPLOY – Employee Profile; standard Treeview path: US Payroll > Setup > Employees > Employee Profile – HCM tab
