Fluid Position Management?

One of our upcoming projects will be to convert our classic Position Management screens to Fluid. So rather than wait for a conference, I'm inviting feedback here from anyone who has tackled Fluid Position Management. Please share any nuggets you have, surprises or learnings. Thanks!

@David-Luding Thanks for the heads-up, David. It'll be nice to have these items you listed, when we re-visit Fluid Position Management (hopefully later in 2022). I appreciate you sharing this information with us!

Hi Mary -

Sorry for my delayed response -- my Quest notifications must not be set up right, so I just saw this. We still have Fluid Position Management on our project list, but had to tackle a few other initiatives first (among them, Vaccination Tracking in PS Health & Safety, and Fluid Approvals).

We also have PeopleTools 8.59 and an HCM Image project in early 2022. So we may not be able to tackle Fluid Position Management until later in 2022. However, I'd love to hear how things are going with your project!

@Bob Laedtke Curious to hear how your project is going to convert to fluid position management? We are about to tackle the same thing. thanks!

@Bob Laedtke I am a consultant who is putting Fluid Position Management with Position Dept Budgeting, and have noticed three things. First, the Job Drop Zones are not in Position Data, and so I ask when those are going to be added? Two, if you are not tied to Commitment Accounting and/or PS Fin Budgets, is there a Drop Zone on that page that will allow us to tie to a third party system. Lastly, there is no Excel to CI load process to get the Position Budget information into PS like there is for Position Data.
I am currently creating a Staging record that is a Job to Position back generation position, several staging records for all of the Recruiting Systems both active postings as well as proposed in approval. In excel, I am trying to auto-generate the position number assignment, and then assigning the Position Reports To, and only using VLOOKUP, it is difficult. If anyone has a better suggestion, please send it my way.
Thanks and have a great day.
