Master Plan Factor Weights

KEY TOPICS

  • Cascade to Sub plans
  • Assign Factor Weights

Set Global Options or Customize by Sub plan Factor Weight Options

Most settings in this section can be carried down to the sub plans by selecting the Cascade to Sub Plans option.

Assign Factor Weights

In a master plan, if you have set plans to use an EEO Code job group structure on the Plan Code screen, you will have the ability to also assign factor weights to EEO Job Groups so that they may be assigned consistently across sub plans. On the Factor Weights screen, click the EEO Job Group Weights tab to show these weights.

For each job group, the weight for factor 1 and factor 2 will be displayed and may be edited. The last column will display the “Quick Weights”, the ratio of promotions to hires currently represented in the master plan for this EEO category. This percentage can be used to approximate the weight that should be used for factor 2, internal availability.

Click [Save] to submit the changes. All weights in the sub plans will be overwritten with the changes made.

Import Factor Weights

When importing weights from another plan, upon clicking Import, you will be given two options if the plan you are importing from is a master plan.

Apply Corresponding Sub Plan Settings – If your plan codes match, the settings will be imported into each sub plan to correspond to the settings in the source sub plans. If there are any plan codes in the current master plan that are not present in the source master plan, settings for those sub plans will be set to match the master plan. Apply Master Plan Settings – Your sub plan settings will be set to match the settings in the master plan. If the plan you are importing from is not a master plan, the sub plans settings will be set to match the master plan.

Best Utilization Tool Rule

When running the Best Utilization Rule tool from a master plan, it can be run for the current master plan, across all sub plans (showing how each utilization rule performs collectively at the sub plan level), or for each separate plan (showing how each rule performs within the confines of each individual sub plan).
