Manual Systems and Replacement Charts – Simple manual device scan be used to keep inventories and development records to compile qualifications information on each employee. Personnel replacement charts show the present performance and promot ability for each position’s potential replacement. Position replacement cards can also be created for each position to show possible replacements as well as their present performance, promotion potential, and training

Replacement Charts A replacement chart lists the critical job roles in a company, the employees currently positioned in those roles, their competencies, the current vacancies and facilitates in future succession planning.

Against each vacant position, the competencies required for the position are mapped and then the employees in the organization with the requisite competencies are tagged and thus the potential replacements are found. The details of the potential candidates along with their age, skills, their experience and the competencies they need to satisfy the required position are listed. Then a comparative analysis of the experience and skillsets of the potential candidates with those required for the position is done. It is in this way that the company can organize its succession planning and can identify internal KSAs (Knowledge, Skills and Abilities).

Replacement charts classify employees into four groups i) Employees ready for promotion ii) Employees who would be ready for future promotions if given additional training iii) Employees performing satisfactorily but needs motivation and further improvements iv) Employees who are not fit to be on employment & need to be replaced.

The replacement charts answer the following questions i) what is the organizational history of an employee and the competencies that the employee possesses? ii) Who are the most eligible replacement options for a vacant position? iii) What are the benefits of selecting a particular employee for the incumbent position relative to another employee? Changes must be made to replacement charts regularly, at least once annually, and with changes in market scenario and economic conditions.

A slightly different term is a position replacement chart which lists down all the employees that can replace an employee holding a job position. Personnel replacement charts are computerised for easy accessibility and modification as per requirement. Thus, it aids in determining the benefits of selecting an employee for a position quantitatively and prevents the organisation from losing revenues in case of any unforeseen exit from the organisation.

Replacement charts are a forecasting technique used in succession planning to help companies visualize key job roles, current employees and existing and future vacancies. Positions are mapped alongside information such as potential replacements, gender and promotion potential. Updates to replacement charts should be made regularly, at least annually, and especially in response to fluctuations in economic conditions or business activity. Replacement charts are a human resource forecasting technique that describe a firm's organization structure in terms of individuals who occupy various managerial and professional positions. For each position the incumbent and potential replacements are identified along with information such as potential for advancement, experience or skills needed to qualify for next position, gender (for aid in diversity planning), and age (only for retirement planning). Replacement charts should be computerized and provide a description of how vacancies can be filled by a firm's internal labor markets . They should be updated annually or when changes in strategic directions occur. Updates should be guided by ongoing assessments of potential replacements – matching their current knowledge, skills, abilities, and other characteristics ( see ksaos ) against not only present position requirements but also those needed to meet anticipated future needs of the position. Assessments should include KSAOs needed for horizontal as well as vertical moves. The former require more broad‐based experience and responsibilities, often of a

cross‐functional nature, to meet the needs of today's flatter structures. Before the number of qualified replacements for a current or future position can be determined, a method of comparing potential replacement candidates with the position's requirements is needed.
