Position information collected includes the Position number, title, group and level, exclusion indicator, language requirements, unit, reporting relationship(supervisor's position number and title).

The system also keeps track of start/end dates for acting, secondment and assignment situations with an active BF system. Staffing action/adjustment module keeps track of areas which, in the opinion of the manager, will require some action to ensure that operational demands are met; this includes vacancies which are likely to occur due to long-term disability leave, maternity leave, care and nurturing leave, extended vacation leave and any other situation which will require attention. The Training and Development module records available courses, maintains a list of employees identified for each course through the appraisal process, as well as the status of this training(proposed, approved, completed). 1, record 12, English, - Human%20Resources%20Planning%20Information%20Program
