Please put the view option back on the position tab for assignments!!
As a payroll specialist I was consistently/constantly using the Position View button to check information and to be able to answer questions for employees such as is there an add on to the pay base, what is the hourly rate, were the dates correct that were entered in Employee Management etc. The view tab was removed as it was considered an "enhancement" as it was moving all EM parts to the web but this is terrible for anyone in payroll. Please please please put it back until all of payroll is moved to the Web.

We definitely could have gotten in front of this better that these buttons were going to be taken away and we will make sure next time we decide to take any buttons away for data integrity and efficiency, we will make sure we inform our valued customers way ahead of time.
The reason we committed to this enhancement is because Employee Management is no longer supported in PaC. The system did not handle the new salary calculation method and new scenarios correctly such as additional pay codes and add-ons, which ultimately could have shown inaccurate data for employees.
There are many efficiencies to using the web. Example: currently if you are running payroll or running a report and want to look at assignment information in PaC you would have to back all the way out of what you were doing to go to the Assignments then back out of that screen and go over to the report, payroll or whatever process you were in. By having the web open, it allows you to multi-task and increase efficiencies in your processes and be able to open up multiple tabs if you needed to view multiple assignments at the same time.
One option I have found beneficial is setting up my PaC and Web screens side-by-side on my laptop, which gives me flexibility to work in both programs simultaneously without having to switch back and forth.
Another benefit to using the web, is you can setup a favorite on the employee management assignment tab in Employee Profile so you can quickly navigate to view all of an employee’s assignments.
Thank you.
