Please add an option to retire a job - or mark it as inactive. Retired jobs should not be available in the list of jobs a new position can reference. Scenario: a customer has re-structured their jobs and titles and no longer wants to make use of the original jobs. All workers have be assigned new positions that reference the new jobs. The old jobs are referenced in previous positions of the workers and therefore cannot - and should not - be deleted. But it shouldn't be possible to reference them in any new positions. It is not enough to update the job description to 'DO NOT USE' - as many, both HR persons as well as managers requesting new positions - do not use the drop down, but simply enter the job id they remember.

The requirement we had is to add new job titles and still keep the old ones but restrict/suspend people from using them.
At the moment the only option is to delete the old titles but with that we lose history.

There should be a way to edit/change job titles. There are few job titles with typo which is been used in positions, which we want to change or atleast apend with "Do not use". At the moment there is no standard provision for this in the system. Please provide this functionality so that the old titles can stay as it is after making the change.

As we have in org. management active positions and all positions it would be really useful to have the same lists for the jobs. In the job list, there is a button - manage changes, where we have a possibility to set an expiration date. However, expired jobs are still visible in the list and also they come up when we link a position with the job. So what is the purpose of having an expiration date in jobs?
Since the organizational needs are evolving, from time to time we add new jobs and eliminate old ones. Currently, the only way to hide expired jobs is to delete them from the list which also requires deleting the history from position details. I believe it is not the correct way to manage historical data.
My suggestion is to have two lists: active jobs and all jobs (where we will find expired jobs as well). So when the user will assign the job to the position an active list will be showing up.
Furthermore, if the inactive job is still needed then from manage changes a new time period will be set which will make a job active again.
I am sure this feature will enrich the job management process and make it easier to maintain jobs' data. Besides this feature will enable to keep the historical data in the position details.

or a way to archive a job

This functionality of being able to 'suspend' / end date across all fields not just Title would be beneficial, and would help prevent old values being used and decrease the list of values shown on the front end

Leaving titles on a list so that they can still be selected where they no longer exist in the business or contain typing errors is creating a lot of additional work to manually change or correct them once they have been approved. As these titles have now been selected when raising position requests, we are unable to change the historic use and delete them and there is no option to edit them either, so the ability to make them live/retired in the system would provide us with a reasonable method for managing this going forward.

The date could also be used to trigger a job evaluation (a client requirement I often come across).

The ability to retire jobs or identify as inactive should be basic functionality to support the management of structures in the system for both occupancy and the ability to report for business intelligence. This is a great idea.
