Definition
In general ERP practice
Position management defines jobs, responsibilities and staffing needs, distinguishing the role from the individual who occupies it. Formal position control may track approved vacancies and headcount separately.
In Odoo
The closest Odoo functions are job positions in Recruitment and job information on employee records. These support recruiting and role identification; the cited workflow is not evidence of a complete position-control system with approved headcount budgets.
