Syncing the UKG Pro Alternate Job Title

This article is exclusively for UKG Pro.

 

Problem

UKG Pro stores various job titles (short job title, long job title and the optional alternate job title).

The default Job Title mapping in Connect to AD uses the long job title, which may or may not be the correct job title you want displayed in [target-system] .

For example, your HR team states to use the alternate job title if it was captured in UKG, however if it was not captured in UKG, then use the long job title.

 

Solution

Use a conditional expression to check if the employee has a alternate job title defined. if they have a alternate job title, then use it, otherwise use the long job title.

This solution can be expressed by using the following conditional expressions in the Job Title mapping:

WHEN
String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Employment.AlternateJobTitle)
THEN
Job.LongTitle
WHEN
Default
THEN
Employment.AlternateJobTitle

 

Summary

The suggested solution ensures that the relevant UKG job title is synced to the user record in [target-system] .
