Assigning Multiple Position Codes in UKG Recruiting is a challenge for organizations using Position Automation alongside high-volume or batch requisitions. The system currently allows only one Position Code per requisition, which limits visibility and accuracy when hiring for multiple positions through a single job posting.

For companies that tie each FTE to a unique Position Code, this creates a disconnect between recruiting activity and position control. As a result, reporting on headcount, budget alignment, and position usage becomes difficult to manage alone.

The Use Case: One Requisition, Many Positions

Many employers open a single requisition to fill several identical roles—such as 10 nurses or 12 seasonal associates. While these hires may share the same job description, each is budgeted under a unique Position Code in the HR system.

However, without the ability to assign more than one Position Code to the requisition, hiring teams are forced to manage reconciliation manually or outside the system.

Why This Matters for Position Automation

When Position Automation is active, requisitions are often tied directly to position openings. While UKG Recruiting is designed to associate a single Position Code with each requisition, many organizations manage hiring scenarios where multiple codes may need to be referenced within a shared request.

This disconnect can lead to:

  • Incomplete tracking of filled positions
  • Difficulty reconciling position usage in Core
  • Inaccurate reporting on time-to-fill or vacancy status per Position Code

For HR and talent teams that rely on Position Codes for workforce planning, this becomes a reporting and process issue.

The Solution: Extend UKG Recruiting with CloudApper

CloudApper provides a flexible way to associate multiple Position Codes with a single job requisition and track each hire accurately.

Here’s how it works:

  • Users can select or import multiple Position Codes tied to a single requisition
  • Each hire under the req can be mapped to one of those codes
  • The data flows cleanly into downstream processes like onboarding and payroll
  • Reports reflect which Position Codes were filled, still open, or remaining

This ensures that hiring stays connected to organizational structure, even when UKG’s native design supports one-to-one mapping.
