View Position Descriptions (NFE or CSA):

The Supervisor role only sees positions specifically assigned to them. If you do not see position descriptions for all the NFE/CSA employees who report to you, contact your Human Resources partner to correct.

  1. Select Position Management module (orange toolbar)
  2. Select Position Descriptions – CSA or NFE
  3. Search for the position if it is not showing already (title, position number, etc.)
  4. Click on the Working Title to open the position description
    Note: Faculty may have position numbers as position description placeholders, but do not have actual position descriptions in the system
    Note: If the job description is up-to-date, no further action is necessary. If it needs to be updated, follow the next steps:

    1. If you get a blue error at the top of the screen indicating an existing action, contact Human Resources to resolve. You won’t be able to update the position description if an action already exists in the system for that position description
  7. Complete each screen by selecting update position as the action when indicated on the first screen
    **IMPORTANT** Some screens have buttons to add repeatable items (job duties, fund sources, etc.). Use the blue button to add these items as needed
