Vijji,
The supervisor hierarchy is the hierarchy defined by specifying the manager on the employee assignments. You can also create hierarchies of positions and assign employees to the positions.
There are some advantages of using a position hierarchy:
- You can have multiple hierarchies for use in different situations.
- A position hierarchy can be more robust in cases where people change positions or leaves the company, as you are thinking positions and not the actual employees that hold them.
The disadvantage of position hierarchies is that they are not very well suited for organisations without a fixed structure as they will need to be maintained. Also, it is possible for more than one person to hold a position, which can lead to trouble.
Both the supervisor and position hierarchies are used in approval processes.
