Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Some users have inquired about the different types of Views available within the PeopleAdmin system. When users log on to the system, their specified view is displayed at the top of the screen to the right of their name. Users may select from two types of system Views, User or Department.
User: If the user selects this view, they can see any action in the system that has their name associated with it. If their name has been specified within any of the drop down fields under the Requisition Information tab, the requisition would be included within this.
Department: When this view is chosen, the user will see any action within the departments listed in the user's account profile. Departmental access is determined by Department Security Administrators for Preparers and Submitters (via DACSS). For Hiring Managers (and their designates), their department assignment is determined by their hiring scope (as created by the Department Submitter).
Users are able to change their selected view with a few simple clicks! After logging on, look on the Main Menu (left side of screen), in the Admin section, click on "Change Default View." Users may choose to change the view for one session or all sessions going forward by clicking "Change for this Session" or "Change For Future Sessions," respectively.
