Fusion HCM Roles 1
Role:
A role is some kind of privilege that you can assign to the user
allowing them to perform certain type actions in the application.
Role Types:
Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud (Oracle HCM Cloud)
defines five types of roles:
Data roles
Abstract roles
Job roles
Aggregate privileges
Duty roles
Data Roles
Data roles combine a worker's job and the data that users with the
job must access. For example, the HCM data role Country Human
Resource Specialist combines a job (human resource specialist)
with a data scope (country). You define the data scope of a data
role in one or more HCM security profiles. HCM data roles aren't
1
part of the security reference implementation. You define all HCM
data roles locally and assign them directly to users.
Abstract Roles
Abstract roles represent a worker's role in the enterprise
independently of the job that you hire the worker to do. Three
abstract roles are predefined in Oracle HCM Cloud:
Employee
Contingent Worker
Line Manager
You can also create abstract roles. All workers are likely to have at
least one abstract role. Their abstract roles enable users to access
standard functions, such as managing their own information and
searching the worker directory. You assign abstract roles directly to
users.
Job Roles
Job roles represent the job that you hire a worker to perform.
Human Resource Analyst and Payroll Manager are examples of
predefined job roles. You can also create job roles. Typically, you
include job roles in data roles and assign those data roles to users.
The IT Security Manager and Application Implementation
Consultant predefined job roles are exceptions to this general rule
because they're not considered HCM job roles. Also, you don't
define their data scope in HCM security profiles.
2
Aggregate Privileges
Aggregate privileges combine the functional privilege for an
individual task or duty with the relevant data security policies. The
functional privileges that aggregate privileges provide may grant
access to task flows, application pages, work areas, reports, batch
programs, and so on. Job and abstract roles inherit aggregate
privileges directly. Aggregate privileges don't inherit other roles. All
aggregate privileges are predefined and you can't edit them.
Although you can't create aggregate privileges, you can include the
predefined aggregate privileges in custom job and abstract roles.
You don't assign aggregate privileges directly to users.
Duty Roles
Each predefined duty role represents a logical grouping of privileges
that you may want to copy and edit. Duty roles differ from aggregate
privileges as follows:
Job and abstract roles may inherit duty roles either directly or
indirectly. You can include predefined and custom duty roles in
custom job and abstract roles. You don't assign duty roles directly to
users.

FUSION HCM: Absence management:Fast formula
scenarios
15
on their grade. If the grade changes mid-period,
then the total accrual needs to be pro-rated based on the amount of
time that the worker spends in each band. This can be achieved by
defining an accrual matrix that is based on grades and using a
combination of accrual event formula and accrual matrix formula.
16
5)Global Absence Ceiling :
The Global Absence Ceiling fast formula can be used in cases
where a single ceilingr rule does not apply to the entire population
that belongs to the accrual plan.
For example, an organization might have a ceiling rule that
generally allows a maximum of 30 days to be accrued by an worker
in a plan. However, the workers in a particular department are
allowed to accrue an additional 5 days due to the nature of their
work. In such cases, this logic can be composed into the fast
formula so that when ceiling limit is determined, the application
dynamically allocates different limits to different workers depending
on their department.
17
The Global Absence Partial Period Accrual Rate fast formula is
where any logic required for pro-ration of accrual balance during
enrollment year and un-enrollment year needs to be entered.
For example, if the annual accrual that a worker is eligible for every
year is 20 days and the worker has enrolled into the plan mid-year,
the organization would like to grant the worker on 10 days for the
year of enrollment since he was participating in the plan only for
half the year. Similarly, if a worker un-enrols from a plan mid-year,
the total accrual for that year would need to be reduced from 20 to
10 – again because the worker was enrolled into the plan for only
half the year.
This formula is invoked when enrollment or un-enrollment dates fall
within the repeating period for which the accrual is being processed.
18
This is currently available only for plans whose UoM is Days or
Hours.
9)Global Absence Plan Enrollment End :
The Global Absence Plan Enrollment End fast formula can be used
to over-ride the default enrollment end date rule for the absence
plan when workers are being terminated from the organization or
when the Update Accrual Plan Enrollments batch job is being run.
For example, in an organization the absence plan un-enrollment
rule could be such that for termination, workers have to serve a
notice period of one month during which time the worker should not
be enrolled into any absence plan. In such a case a Global Absence
Plan Enrollment End formula can be composed to derive this
alternate enrollment end date.
19
11) Global Absence Plan Use Rate :
The Global Absence Plan Use Rate fast formula can be used to
dynamically specify the rate definition associated with the accrual
plans depending on custom conditions.
This formula type is applicable for Absence Payment Rate Rule,
Final Disbursement Rate Rule, Discretionary Disbursement Rate
Rule and Liability Rate Rule definitions.
For example, if the Absence Payment rate definition associated
with the same accrual plan varies depending on the location of the
Worker being evaluated, a Global Absence Plan Use Rate can be
composed to associate the corresponding rate definition to the
Worker
20
13)Global Absence Vesting Period :
The Global Absence Vesting Period fast formula can be used to
enforce a custom vesting period (a period during which the Worker
is enrolled into the plan and accruing balance but cannot use them)
logic while defining an absence plan.
For example, an organization might have a vesting period rule for
new joiners where-in Workers who are hired as Interns or
Graduates should complete 30 days of employment before they can
use their vacation balance. Here the vesting period formula can be
composed to look at the person type to determine the period
applicable for the particular enrollment.
21
absence start date if actual dates are entered or if it is not entered,
then the qualification date needs to be the event date (actual if
available, or else, the planned date).
For including such conditional logic to determine the qualification
date, formulas of this type can be used.
16)Global Absence Plan Entitlement :
The Global Absence Plan Entitlement fast formula can be used to
define the entire entitlement structure for a qualification plan for
cases where matrix architecture does not fit the bill.
22
19)Global Absence Plan Use Rate :
The Global Absence Plan Use Rate fast formula can be used to
dynamically specify the rate definition associated with the
qualification plan depending on custom conditions.
For example, if the rate definition associated with the same
qualification plan varies depending on the location of the Worker
being evaluated, a Global Absence Plan Use Rate can be
composed to associate the corresponding rate definition to the
Worker.

Oracle Fusion Payroll allows for the use of fast formulas on the
forms and processes, and if the application does not recognize the
fast formulas, then further investigation from Oracle Support
Services is necessary.
This document will not assist with the creation of either a formula or
a function, but will give you steps to follow to troubleshoot fast
formulas and/or functions that you have created.
25
What are the seeded fast formulas and how to determine
seeded ones?
Fast formulas that were created for the user created element will
have Legislation Data Group populated, Effective Start Date set to
the implementation date, Edit action is enabled.
26
Database Items related issues :
a) run the above sql to check if the database item was created
b) If the element is multiple entry allowed then the DBI will not be
generated to get the entry values.
27
a) Please regenerate the flexfield again and run SQL below which
show the generated list of DBIs:
28
'A record with this combination of values already exists'
29
Inputs Statements :
SALARY = SALARY_ANNUAL_SALARY / 12
RETURN SALARY
SALARY = ANNUAL_SALARY / 12
RETURN SALARY
30
Database Items :
S = SALARY
A = AGE
IF A < 20 THEN
TRAINING_ALLOWANCE = 30
31
ELSE
TRAINING_ALLOWANCE = 0
TRAINING_ALLOWANCE = 30
ELSE
TRAINING_ALLOWANCE = 0
32
The first example always causes a database fetch for AGE whereas
the second only fetches AGE if salary is less than 20000.
Balance Dimensions :
Here are some of the things for enhancing the performance of Fast
Formula (in no particular order):
33
Use balance dimensions for single assignments whenever possible.
(ASG_GRE vs. PER_)
Do not refer to database items until needed.
Do not default unnecessary database items.
Using an ALIAS instead of assigning a database item to a local
variable is more efficient.
Input statements are up to 10x faster than using database items.
Assign date constants using DATE component instead of the
TO_DATE function.
Review generated formulas and remove unnecessary or poor logic
coding.
Create elements with the correct input values instead of having a
separate element for each input value. As you can see from item #9
above, Input statements are up to 10x faster than referencing
database items.
Assign smaller fast formulas to each of these elements that only
reference necessary database items for that specific element.
Allows for easier maintenance and debugging.
Formula code is converted to PLSQL. The 200+ ALIAS lines are not
converted to executable code - the alias statement is there so that
you can use an alternative name for a database item within Formula
text. The defaulting lines are only executed if defaulting is
necessary i.e. when the corresponding database item is executed,
but the underlying SQL returns no rows or a null row.
34
performance hit due to network traffic because all these variables
are exchanged between the payroll process and the database
server whether or not they get used. This is because a Formula
execution is a PLSQL procedure call. The number of parameters to
this process is related to the number of different variables in the
formula (inputs, outputs, database items, local variables).
Formula Errors :
Syntax Error - The formula text violates the grammatical rules for
the formula language. An example is using IF1 instead of IF for an
35
IF statement.
36
Uninitialized Variable - The compiler detects that a variable is
uninitialized when used. The compiler cannot do this in all cases.
This error often occurs when you want to use a database item, but a
database item is not available in the formula.
Missing Function Call - A function call is not recognized. The
combination of return type, function name, and parameter types
does not match any available function.
Incorrect Operator Usage - An instance of a formula operator use
does not match the permitted uses of that operator. For example,
the + operator has two permitted uses. The operands are both of
data type NUMBER, or both of data type TEXT.
Inconsistent Data Type Usage - A formula variable is being used as
if it is of more than one data type. Or a database item or context is
being used with the wrong data type. For example, Variable A is
assigned a NUMBER value at the start of the formula, but a TEXT
value later in the formula.
EXIT Statement Not Within WHILE Loop - A condition that
eventually becomes false, or an EXIT call for exiting the loop does
not exist.
Misuse of Context - A variable is used as a context, or a context is
used as a variable. For example, AREA1 is assigned a value as an
ordinary variable, but later in the formula AREA1 used as a context
in a GET_CONTEXT call.
Error: “Local value used before initialized”
a) Error can mean that a database item is not available and is being
treated as a local variable.
37
b) Remove the quotes around the Database Items (DBIs) that you
are wishing to utilize (HRT_PERSON_PREV_WORKEXP....)
c) As these DBIs are of type 'array', you must use the proper syntax
to default and to use them
i) Use 'DEFAULT_DATA_VALUE' for
HRT_PERSON_PREV_WORKEXP.....DBIs rather than 'DEFAULT'
ii) Using the Fast formula User Guide as an aid, select a method of
looping to loop through the DBI values.
HRT_PERSON_PREV_WORKEXP_START_DATE IS
'01-JAN-0001' (date)
HRT_PERSON_PREV_WORKEXP_END_DATE IS '01-JAN-0001'
(date)
38
I=1
WHILE
HRT_PERSON_PREV_WORKEXP_START_DATE.EXISTS(I)
LOOP
(
S_DT1 = HRT_PERSON_PREV_WORKEXP_START_DATE[I]
/* Do some processing with element at index I. */
I = I + 1 /* Array database items indexes go up in steps of 1. */
)
ACCRUAL = 3
RETURN ACCRUAL
39
Uninitialized Variable - Where the formula compiler cannot fully
determine if a variable or context is initialized when it is used, it
generates code to test if the variable is initialized. When the formula
executes and the variable or context is not initialized an error is
raised.
40
Value Exceeded Allowable Range - Raised for a variety of reasons,
such as exceeding the maximum allowable length of a string.
41
end. This indicates a programming error within the formula.
Incorrect Data Type For Stored Item - When retrieving an item using
WSA_GET, the items actual data type does not match that of the
stored item. This is an error within the calling formula.
42
Input Has Different Types In Called and Calling Formulas - When
calling a formula from a formula, the actual formula input data type
within the called formula does not match the data type specified
from the calling formula.
Too Many Formula Calls - There are two many formula from formula
calls. This is due to a problem with the formulas.
Issue:
43

)
ForPay_REL_DATE_START = PER_REL_DATE_START
47
ForPay_REL_ADJUSTED_SVC_DATE =
PER_REL_ADJUSTED_SVC_DATE
RETURN ForPay_REL_DATE_START,
ForPay_REL_ADJUSTED_SVC_DATE
48
For formulas running at relationship level, extra work would need to
be done to be able to set the HR_ASSIGNMENT_ID and
HR_TERM_ID contexts in the Payroll Access To HR formula.
Issue:
49
Solution:
Ensure that:
50
3. When defining UDTs, the table_name must be unique
6. The row name/value and the column name must be unique for
the given table - they do not need to be unique across all UDTs.
7. The User Table must be visible in the legislative data group of the
payroll process. This means that it must exist at enterprise level or
in the same legislative data group.
51
So it is possible that the translated value on the UI and the internal
base value don't match. BI queries could be run by the customer
against FF_USER_TABLES, FF_USER_COLUMNS and
FF_USER_ROWS_F to get the correct values.
10. The effective date ranges of the user rows and user column
instances must cover the effective date of formula execution.
52
If you use the dimension _ASG_RUN in your formula (which uses
the context PAYROLL_ASSIGNMENT_ID) and your formula gets
executed at the payroll relationship level then your formula will error
out because this context is not automatically set at this level and
there is no way the balance call will successfully complete.
53
Adding the Element to a test employee.
Put some value in the Amount field and Save.
The application throws an error and the entry is not saved.
54
In this situation the issue was resolved by using another DBI
RUN_INCLUDED_PAYROLL_ASGS.
CHANGE_CONTEXTS(PAYROLL_ASSIGNMENT_ID =
RUN_INCLUDED_PAYROLL_ASGS[1])
55
if
(ALL_ASGS_LINK_TO_DEDUCTION_COMPONENT.exists(l_index)

(
PAY_INTERNAL_LOG_WRITE('(VAC_ACCRUAL_LIAB_CAL)
Error.. Assignment
id is missing')
l_error = PAY_LOG_ERROR('PAY:PAY_ASG_ID_MISSING')
)
)
The log file shows the formula has entered the first part of the
if-statement because there are messages from there like the
following in the log file:
(VAC_ACCRUAL_LIAB_CAL) : l_accrual_unit 50
(VAC_ACCRUAL_LIAB_CAL) : l_accrual_uom H_DECIMAL3

Global Absence Plan Duration:
The Global Absence Plan Duration fast formula can be used to
over-ride the default duration calculation logic for daily entitlement
duration entries against qualification plans. For example, if the
entitlement to be considered against a qualification plan in an
organization depends on the location of the Worker, then this
formula can be leveraged to specify this dynamic calculation logic.
This formula will be invoked once for each day of absence.
Sample Formula

• Absence Types
Define Absence Formulas and Rates :
The tasks in the Define Absence Structures task list already contain
predefined rules that you can use to define your absence policies.
However, to set up additional rules, use the Manage Fast Formulas
task to write your own formulas and associate them with the
absence components.
Use the Manage Rate Definitions task if you want to define the rate
of payment during absence periods that pertain to specific absence
plans.
Define Absence Time Periods :
Use the Manage Repeating Time Periods task if you want to create
repeating periods to determine how often a worker accrues leave in
an accrual term.
Define Eligibility :
Use the Manage Eligibility Profiles task in this task list to determine
the set of eligible workers who can use specific absence plans and
absence types.
Setup Sequence:
1.a)Lookups
b) Valuesets
c)Flexfields
d)fast Formulas
e)Eligibility profiles
f)Rate definitions
2.a) absence plans
b) absence certifications
81
c) Absence Reasons
3.Absence Types
4.Absence categories
Use the following steps to set up absence management:
1. Extend lookups, value sets, and flexfields based on your
requirement. Write fast formulas to include rules in the
absence objects in addition to the predefined ones. Create rate
definitions to define payment rates for absence
plans.
2. Create absence plans to define rules for time accruals and
entitlements. Create certification requests that you want
workers to complete to continue receiving entitlements during
absence periods. Create absence reasons that you
want workers to select while recording absences.
3. Create absence types, such as sickness leave or vacation, and
associate each type with the relevant plans, reasons,
and certifications.
4. Create absence categories, such as personal leave or medical
leave, and associate them with the relevant absence
types for reporting purposes.
Components:
Absence types :Use the Manage Absence Types task to create
absence types.
Absence categories :Use the Manage Absence Categories task to
create absence categories and associate them with
absence types.
82
Absence patterns Review: these settings on the Display Features
tab when you create an absence type.
Absence plans :Use the Manage Absence Plans task to create
absence plans.
Absence reasons :Use the Manage Absence Reasons task to
create absence reasons.
Action items : Use the Manage Certifications task to set up a
requirement. Then associate the requirement as an
action item with an absence type so that every absence associated
with the absence type is subject
to that requirement.
Major Tasks in Absence management:
1)Define General Absence Use the tasks in this task list to review
predefined lookups, value sets, and flexfields. You might want to
extend or update those values before you set up the main absence
components, such as absence types. The tasks in this task list are
independent of specific absence components, and are not required
to set up absences.
2)Define Absence Structures Use the tasks in this task list to create
these absence components:
• Absence Certifications
• Absence Reasons
• Absence Plans
• Absence Types
• Absence Categories
3)Define Absence Formulas and Rates The tasks in the Define
Absence Structures task list already contain predefined rules that
you can use to define your absence policies. However, to set up
83
additional rules, use the Manage Fast Formulas task to write your
own formulas and associate them with the absence components.
Use the Manage Rate Definitions task if you want to define the rate
of payment during absence periods that pertain to specific absence
plans.
4)Define Absence Time Periods Use the Manage Repeating Time
Periods task if you want to create repeating periods to determine
how often a worker accrues leave in an accrual term.
5)Define Eligibility Use the Manage Eligibility Profiles task in this
task list to determine the set of eligible workers who can use
specific absence plans and absence types.
Worker Availability: How It Is Determined
The availability of a worker during a selected time period is
automatically determined using:
• Absence entries during that period
• The work schedule that the worker presently follows
• Calendar events
How Worker Availability Is Determined:
84
Calendar events defined for location or department? --->Availability

higher levels.
Derived Factors:
Derived factors define how to calculate certain eligibility criteria that
change over time, such as a person's age or length of service. You
add derived factors to eligibility profiles and then associate the
profiles with objects that restrict eligibility.
Derived Factor Types
86
Using the Manage Derived Factors task, you can create six different
types of derived factors:
• Age
• Length of service
• A combination of age and length of service
• Compensation
• Hours worked
• Full-time equivalent
87
definition using the Manage Rate Definitions task. Then, when you
create an absence plan, you select the rate definition that you
created from the Disbursement Rate Rule list on the Entries and
Balances tab.
Types of Absence Payments that Support Rate Definitions
The following list describes the types of absence payments for
which you can associate a rate definition
Absence Payment Rate Rule :
Calculates payment during an accrual and qualification absence
period.
For a qualification absence plan, you can select this rate definition
to calculate payment for a qualification absence period. When you
create a qualification plan, remember that you define qualification
bands to specify the percentage of payment during an absence
period.
Example: You want to award the worker 75% pay up to the first 90
days of the absence. You use a
rate definition to define the calculation method to translate that
percentage into an actual payment
value.
Final Balance Payment Rate Rule :
Calculates payment of accruals when plan participation ends.
Example: If the worker is terminated or loses eligibility for the
absence plan, you might want to use a rate definition to calculate
the final accrual balance. Create a rate definition that considers
the worker's salary details and calculates the payment value for
each unit of accrued time.
Partial Disbursement Rate Rule :
88
Calculates payment when paying out part of an accrual balance.
Example: If the worker is terminated or loses eligibility for the
absence plan, you might want to
disburse the remainder of the accrual balance as cash. Create a
rate definition that considers the
worker's salary details and calculates the payment value for each
unit of accrued time.
Liability Booking Rate Rule :
Calculates the cost of a worker's accrual balance to determine
employer liability.
Example: If the is terminated or loses eligibility for the absence
plan, you might want to determine
employer liability for worker time accruals for the rest of the accrual
term.

in the future. Together, these records constitute the
logical record or object instance.
The following changes to the department manager attribute in a

workers.
No Entitlement
Create absence plans of this type to track paid or unpaid absences
without maintaining an accrual balance or providing leave
entitlements, such as periodic accruals. Similar to an accrual plan,
you can define the length and type of the plan term and determine
when eligible workers can enroll in the plan. You can also use plans
of this type in combination with a qualification plan.
For example, use a no-entitlement plan to pay workers if they are
not eligible for a standard maternity
absence qualification plan.
91
• An accrual term of one calendar year that restarts on January 1
• An accrual term that starts on the worker's annual hire date and
restarts on every anniversary
Plan Eligibility :
Associate an eligibility profile with the accrual plan to determine the
set of workers who can enroll in that plan.
Enrollment and Termination :
Decide when to enroll workers in the accrual plan and choose when
to disenroll a terminated worker from the plan.
Waiting Period and Vesting Period :
Waiting period Define if you want newly enrolled workers to accrue
time only after a specific amount of time elapses
after the enrollment date.
Vesting period Define if you want newly enrolled workers to accrue
time, but not use it until after a specific amount of time.
Plan Limits
Configure the following plan limits:
• Carryover
• Ceiling
For accrual plans, define rules for the maximum leave time that
workers can accrue and the maximum leave time that workers
can carry over to the next term.
Payments
Decide how you want to calculate payment of accrual balances for
the following scenarios:
• When workers must be paid a different rate during the absence
period
92
• When a part of the accrual balance must be disbursed to workers
as cash
• When the cost of accrual balance must be calculated to determine
employer liability
• When the accrual balance must be paid to workers when their plan
participation ends
Adjustments
You can enable the following types of adjustments that HR
specialists can make during maintenance of absence records
and entitlements:
• Discretionary disbursements of accrual balance
• Accrual balance transfers across plans
• Other adjustments
93
The accrual term starts on the hire date and restarts on each
anniversary. For example, if the enrolled worker's hire date is
May 1, 2015, the accrual term starts on this date and restarts on
May 1, 2016.
Entering a continuous service date when enrolling in the accrual
plan doesn't affect the start date. The continuous service date
affects the length-of-service calculations while processing a waiting
period, vesting period, or plan limits defined in an accrual band
matrix. However, it doesn't affect the accrual term.
Accrual Plan Enrollment and Termination:
Workers are enrolled into accrual plans as a result of employment
and eligibility and disenrolled from accrual plans when
they are terminated or plan eligibility ends. Define when you want to
enroll or disenroll a worker in the Participation tab of the
Create Absence Plan page.
Configure the plan to:
• Automatically enroll workers when they are hired or when a
transfer event occurs.
• Use a formula if you want to consider other aspects or rules to
determine when to enroll workers.
Define a waiting period if you want newly enrolled workers to start
accruing time under that plan only after a specific amount of time
elapses after the date of enrollment.
Configure the plan to automatically disenroll workers as a result of
employment termination or loss of eligibility to a plan. On plan
termination, define how to:
• Disburse the amount for payment if the worker has a positive
absence balance.
94
• Recover the amount from the last pay if the worker has a negative
absence balance.
Absence Plan Eligibility:
An eligibility profile in Absence Management defines criteria used to
determine whether a person qualifies for an accrual or
qualification absence plan. Define eligibility profiles and then
associate it with a plan to determine the set of workers who can
enroll in that plan. To associate an eligibility profile with an absence
plan:
1. Create the eligibility profile using the Manage Eligibility Profiles
task in the Absence Administration work area.
2. Associate the eligibility profile with the absence plan using the
Manage Absence Plans task.
If you want all workers to be eligible for the absence plan, then do
not add an eligibility profile. If a plan does not have an eligibility
profile associated with it, then it does not mean that workers are
enrolled automatically into the plan. New hires may be enrolled
automatically, if that is the option set in the plan definition. Existing
workers have to be enrolled manually.
Accrual Frequency Definition:
Award leave time to workers throughout an accrual term in equal
installments known as accrual periods. Determine the
frequency of accrual periods by selecting one of the following
Accrual Frequency Source values on the Accrual tab in the
Create Absence Plan page:
• Person primary frequency
• Repeating time period
Person Primary Frequency :
95
Select Person Primary Frequency to award time at the start of each
payroll period. For example, if the worker enrolled in
the plan receives weekly payroll, the leave time accrues once a
week.
Repeating Time Periods :
The worker accrues time at the start of each instance in a repeating
time period. For example, you created a biweekly
repeating period for an annual accrual term. The worker accrues
time every two weeks during the term.
You create the repeating time period using the Manage Repeating
Time Periods task in the Absence Administration work area. Then,
associate the repeating time period with the accrual absence plan
on the Create Absence Plan page.
Accrual Plan Limits:
For accrual plans, you can configure the following plan limits:
Carryover Rule Determines the maximum time that workers can
carry over to the next term.
Ceiling Rule Determines the maximum leave time that workers can
accrue
Use an accrual band matrix to build criteria using various factors,
such as length of service, to determine workers who qualify
for specific plan limits. Alternatively, you can use a formula to
determine each plan limit.
Accrual Bands:
Use accrual bands to vary accrual benefits to workers depending on
employment criteria, such as length of service, grade, or
other factors. This topic shows various types of accrual bands that
you can define in the Accrual Matrix section on the Create
96
Absence Plan page.
The examples show accrual bands based on the following factors:
• Length of service
• Location and length of service
• Grade
97
page. This helps determine if the worker has enough time in the
source plan balance that you can transfer to the new plan
balance.
Disburse Balance
Use this option to pay out a part of the plan accrual balance to the
worker.
Update Balance Details
Use this option to update the adjustment value and reason, such as
removing an incorrect adjustment value or updating the adjustment
reason as clerical error.
98
Discretionary Disbursements of Accrual Balance:
This adjustment option enables HR specialists to pay out a part of
the plan's accrual balance to the worker. If you select this option,
you must also select a disbursement rate rule in the Rates section
to determine how to calculate the payment.
Other Adjustments:
This adjustment option enables HR specialists to make special
adjustments to plan balances, such as award leave time to a worker
for exemplary performance at work. When HR specialists make
adjustments on the Manage Absence Records and Entitlements
page, they can select Clerical or Compensatory as the adjustment
reason.
99
For example, you can limit the duration of the plan term to the
duration of the absence.
Plan Eligibility
Associate an eligibility profile with the qualification plan to determine
the set of workers who are eligible to record an absence that
belongs to that plan.
Enrollment and Termination
Decide when to enroll workers in the qualification plan. Also, decide
whether ongoing payments under this plan must continue if a
worker is terminated or loses eligibility for the plan.
Payments
Use an entitlement band matrix to determine the payment
percentages that apply for specific time periods during an absence.
Decide how you want to calculate the payment rate of a single unit
of absence. You can use a rate definition to include the calculation
rules, or use a formula. For example, you want workers who have
completed a particular tenure to receive specific percentage of pay
for a specific absence period.
100
• Rolling forward
• Absence duration
Calendar Year
The qualification plan term starts on the month, day, and year that
you select. The duration of the term is one year. For
example, if you select January 1, 2015, the qualification term starts
on that day and ends on December 31, 2015.
Rolling Backward
A rolling-backward term calculates absence entitlements based on
the total duration of absences for a specific time period
that precedes the absence start date. For example, if you specify a
one year rolling period, and the worker's absence start
date is January 1, 2015, then the calculation considers absences
scheduled from January 2, 2014. You can also configure
rules to determine how to deal with absences that overlap rolling
backward terms.
Rolling Forward
A rolling forward term calculates absence entitlements based on the
first date a worker's absence begins and calculates the end date by
adding the term duration to the start date. For example, if the term
duration is 365 days and the absence start date is 12 February,
then the end date will be 11 February of the following year. The
rolling forward option evaluates absences between this start date
and end date to track plan entitlements for that period.
Absence Duration
The absence duration determines the qualification plan term. For
example, if a worker schedules a maternity absence from
101
January 1, 2015 to April 15, 2015, then that is the duration of the
qualification plan term.
Qualification Plan Term Overlap Rules:
When you define a rolling backward plan term for an absence
qualification plan, you must select an overlap rule that
determines how to deal with absences where only a partial period
overlaps the current term. The examples in this topic will help you
understand how you can use the:
• Include rule to assess absences that overlap current and previous
terms
• Exclude rule to ignore the entire absence that overlaps the current
and previous terms
• Split rule to assess absences falling within the current term only
The Include Rule
If an absence overlaps the beginning of the rolling period, you
consider the entire absence in the current assessment period.
Scenario: You defined a six-month rolling-backward term in your
qualification plan and set up bands that entitle workers to 20 days
absence at full pay and a further 15 days at half pay.
• The assessment period for a worker began on January 1, 2014.
• The worker starts sick leave on July 1, 2014.
Previously, the worker received payment under the same sick leave
entitlement plan for 15 working days from December 20,2013 to
January 7, 2013.
Because you configured the plan term to use the Include rule, the
previous absence that overlaps the current assessment period is
considered. So for the absence beginning on July 1, 2014, the
worker receives full pay for the first 5 (20 - 15) days of the absence
102
and half-pay for the next 15 days.
The Exclude Rule
If a worker is absent at the beginning of an assessment period, this
rule ignores the entire absence that overlaps the period. In the
example used in the previous scenario, for a rolling backward term
that uses the Exclude rule, the worker receives:
• Full pay for the first 20 days of the absence
• Half pay for the next 15 days
Even though the previous absence overlaps the current assessment
period, the worker receives the entitlement band benefits
for the current absence without any deductions.
The following figure shows the usage of the Exclude rule in this
scenario.
The Split Rule
This rule assesses overlapping absences that fall within the current
plan term only. In the example used in the previous
scenario, for a qualification plan that uses the Split rule, the worker
receives full pay for the first 15 (20 - 5) days of the
absence and half pay for the next 15 days.
Qualification Enrollment and Termination Rules:
Define when you want to enroll or disenroll a worker in the
Participation tab of the Create Absence Plan page. Workers
qualify for qualification plan entitlements as a result of an event,
such as childbirth. These entitlements stop when workers are
terminated or plan eligibility ends. Configure the plan to:
• Enroll workers in the plan when a worker or an administrator
schedules an absence using an absence type
103
associated with a qualification plan.
• Use a formula if you must consider other aspects or rules that
determine when to enroll workers in the plan.
Decide whether ongoing payments under this plan must continue if
a worker is:
• Terminated
• Not terminated, but loses eligibility for the plan
Absence Plan Eligibility: Explained
An eligibility profile in Absence Management defines criteria used to
determine whether a person qualifies for an accrual or
qualification absence plan. Define eligibility profiles and then
associate it with a plan to determine the set of workers who
can enroll in that plan. To associate an eligibility profile with an
absence plan:
1. Create the eligibility profile using the Manage Eligibility Profiles
task in the Absence Administration work area.
2. Associate the eligibility profile with the absence plan using the
Manage Absence Plans task.
If you want all workers to be eligible for the absence plan, then do
not add an eligibility profile. If a plan does not have an eligibility
profile associated with it, then it does not mean that workers are
enrolled automatically into the plan. New hires may be enrolled
automatically, if that is the option set in the plan definition. Existing
workers have to be enrolled manually.
Qualification Bands: Examples
Use qualification bands to determine the payment percentages that
workers receive for specific time periods during a long
104
leave of absence. Use employment criteria, such as length of
service, grades, or other factors to filter workers. This topic
shows various types of qualification bands that you can define in the
Qualification Band Matrix section on the Create Absence Plan page.
The examples show qualification bands based on the following
factors:
• Length of service
• Grade
• Length of service and grade
No Entitlement
105
4.Plan termination based on employment termination or loss of
eligibility.
Qualification Plans:
1.Eligibility is used to qualify employee for entitlements when
absence is scheduled or recorded
2.System evaluates eligibility and entitlements as of a “qualification
date”
3.No enrollment data is held
4.Termination of employment may still require payment of
outstanding entitlements

FUSION HCM : FAST FORMULAS
Fast Formulas:
• Benefits
• Compensation Management
• Absence Management
138
Fast Formulas can be used across various Fusion HCM products to:
–Perform Payroll Calculations
–Define rules for paid time off (PTO) accruals
–Calculate absence duration
–Define custom calculations for benefits administration
–Edit rules for object group population for elements or people
–Validate Element Input Values or User-Defined Tables
–Validation and HCM Extracts
Basic Components of Fast Formula
Before start writing any fast formula, you need to understand the
following.
1) Formula types
2) Context
3) Database items (DBI)
4) Input values
5) Return Variables/Values.
Formula types:
The Formula types are created by products like Benefit (BEN),
Compensation (COMP), and Payroll (PAY). This is giving a name to
a group of formulas. The name will help in identifying which product
the formula is being used and where it is used.
Some examples are given below:
Element Skip,Extract Advanced condition,Extract criteria
Extract record ,Extract rule ,Legislative check ,Net to gross
139
Compensation Person Selection: This formula type is from
Compensation (COMP) and is used to validate the person selection
in Compensation and Total Compensation (TCS) process.
Participation and Rate Eligibility: This formula type is from
Benefit (BEN) and is used in COMP, BEN, TCS and ABS to
determine the eligibility of a person.
Total Compensation Item: This formula type is from Total
Compensation (TCS) and is used to create or calculate a value for
total compensation items.
Context:
The value to the context is set by the application when the fast
formula is executed.
For example, the Compensation (COMP) sets the value to context
like PERSON_ID, ASSIGNMENT_ID etc while executing the Fast
Formula.
140
“Select Full_name from PERSON_TABLE where person_id =
:P_ID”
In this SQL, P_ID is a bind variable and the value for the bind
variable is provided by the Context, PERSON_ID. The value to the
context PERSON_ID is set by the application while executing the
Fast Formula. In Fusion, Fast Formula developer can also set the
value using method SET_CONTEXTS provided the Fast Formula
type supports the Context.
Related methods for the context are:
GET_CONTEXT : To find the value from the context
CONTEXT_IS_SET: To find whether a context is set
SET_CONTEXTS: to set one or more contexts
141
For this Route, there could be many DBIs like Full_Name,
First_Name, Last_Name, Date_of_Birth etc…
Input Values:
142
Input values are additional values/information that are passed by
the individual applications to the Fast Formula to assist the Formula
developers while executing the Fast Formula. This information can
be collected from individual application’s documentation.
For example,
Plan Start Date and Plan End Date are input values of
Compensation Plan Setup.
Period Start Date and End Date are input values of Total
Compensation Statement.
Return Variables/Values:
Most of the Formula types do not care about the return variables.
There are some exceptions where some Fast Formulas expect to
return more than one value. Therefore, the variable has to be set
as per the documentation. In these cases, the formula will not work
as expected if the return variables are not correct. In some other
cases, even if there is one return value, it needs to be a specific
return variable.
For example,
Total Compensation Item Fast Formula expects the return variable,
“COMPENSATION_DATES,VALUES,
ASSIGNMENTS,LEGALEMPLOYERS.”
Benefit Eligible fast formula expects the return variable, ELIGIBLE.
In some cases, the formula type expects certain values. For
example, Benefit Eligible and Compensation Person Selection Fast
Formula types expect either a ‘Y’ or ‘N’.
Mostly, the dates are returned in “YYYY/MM/DD” format.

146
So please pay special attention to various key types and see what
makes most sense in your situation,
• Hexadecimal value
147
• Generated in Oracle Fusion when the record is created
• Numeric value
Source Keys :
User Keys :
• Natural values
• Sometimes alternatives
• Sometimes updateable
Notes:-
148
1. You can use surrogate IDs when updating objects, but the IDs
may not be readily available to Oracle HCM Cloud users.
2. Default source keys are generated only if you don't supply a
source key when creating an object.
3. You can't use user keys alone when updating some objects
because their values are subject to change.
4. Keys that aren't held on the object exist in the Integration Key
Map table.
Keys that aren’t held on the object are stored in the HDL integration
key map table - HRC_INTEGRATION_KEY_MAP. You should be
able to use BIP to fire up a SQL statement and view the contents of
this table. e.g.
149
PER_LOCATION_DETAILS_F_VL where location_code =
'STUDENT1 Location1‘ (Result Location ID = 300000001572671)
User Key:- Best way to get this info is the Business Object
Documentation from MOS or other option is UI as shown below.
Online page should highlight user keys with *
Line structure :
Definition : METADATA|file descriminator|Atttribute1| Attribute2|...
Data : MERGE|File descriminator|Value1|Value2|Value3|...
Control : SET FILE_Delimeter,
Comment : COMMENT This file contains data related to worker

FUSION HCM : DATA LOADING SCOPE (HDL SCOPE)
151
Full mode is the default for all new customers. Existing customers
who upgrade to R10 will not be forced to switch to Full mode,
however they must start planning for this move. Switching from
Limited to Full is a one-time switch and customers and their
partners must take action to convert data files to work with HDL
before they make the switch to Full mode.
Important:
There is NO back and forth switch between these modes so if you
switch to full mode, there is no going back to FBL. User interface
will not allow you to switch back to Limited mode once scope has
been set to FULL. It will also disable the HCM Spreadsheet loaders
as they are based on FBL engine. (Payroll Batch Loader or
Compensation Spreadsheets or Benefits Enrollment Spreadsheets
should continue to work as is)
HCM Spreadsheet Loader:
Here is the navigation for HCM Spreadsheet Loaders which will no
longer work if you use HDL full mode. As you can see, this does not
include speciality loaders such as Payroll Batch Loader or
Compensation Spreadsheet loaders or Benefits Enrollment Upload
etc, as those spreadsheet loaders will continue to work even with
HDL full mode. HCM spreadsheet loaders accessible via Data
exchange UI are based on FBL engine and thats the reason why
they will not function in HDL full mode.
Conclusion:
You could be implementing Fusion HCM very first time or simply
trying to switch from FBL to HDL, before you get started with HDL
you must understand the implication of the scope parameter. This
parameter controls whether the system is using HDL in Limited or
Full mode and determines if you could use HCM Spreadsheet
152
loaders or not. In future these limitations should be a non issue
once HDL compatible spreadsheet loaders are released.
153
FUSION HCM : HCM DATA LOADING ERRORS or HDL
ERRORS
STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Navigator -> Data Exchange
2. Import and Load Data

4. See import error
BUSINESS IMPACT
The issue has the following business impact:
Due to this issue, users cannot import worker.dat.
CAUSE
Space in context name is causing a problem.
Determined by reviewing dat file.
SOLUTION
Recreate a context without space(manage extensible flex fields)
154
and if space is required, please give _ and try to load the data
Error :
You must provide a value for the attribute From Date
STEPS
Error :
Getting errors when importing a DepartmentTreeNode.zip
The staging tables are empty
ERROR
155
Load - An error occurred when evaluating advanced grouping and
ordering expressions in procedure
HRC_DL_UTILITY.CHUNK_STAGE_LINES at step 150:
ORA-01436: CONNECT BY loop in user data.
STEPS
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1.Load DepartmentTree data using HDL
CAUSE
Data issue
There is a line with the same value for DepartmentName and
ParentDepartmentName. That is generating loop in user data.
SOLUTION
1. Correct the data by providing a correct value for
ParentDepartmentName different than the value provided in
DepartmentName
Error:
Invalid Assignment Category attribute
Solution:
1. Navigate to Workforce Deployment -> Define Common HCM
Configuration -> Define Workforce Records -> Define Employment
Record Values -> Manage Work Terms and Assignment Lookups.
2. Select EMP_CAT and make sure the errored Assignment
Category is available for the specific legislation. If not there, create
one.
156
3. Please make sure you enter the end date as end of time
(12/31/4712) correctly
Error: You must provide the new start-date value in the New
Start Date field.
Cause: There exists a WorkRelationship(WR) with
SourecSystemId(SSI)= 'WRXXX' and DateStart is 'XXXX-XX-XX'
Solution:
1 If you are trying to create a new WR, please change the
SourecSystemId(SSI)of WorkRelationship Also its reference in
WorkTerms and Assignment
2 If the intention is to correct the existing WR, then provide
DateStart = XXXX/XX/XX and its new value in 'NewDateStart'
3. The error "You must provide the new start-date value in the New
Start Date field." is thrown in the case of update WorkRelationship
when the DateStart
in the DB does not match to the one provided in the dat file.
Please check if the WR already exists in the DB.
4. Also please have the value of NewDateStart removed from WR.
This attribute is used to capture the new value of DateStart if in
case it is required to move the DateStart.
Error: The values XXXX are not valid for the attribute JobId.
Solution: Load/Create Job file and re-laod the worker file
157
Error: The object PeriodOfServiceId attribute value is null and
does not match the parent object expected value
300000005094797.
Cause: Employee might get transferred from one legal entity and
other legal entity
Solution: Handle this case as a global transfer
158
After a worker is created, you cannot update the user information or
roles through the Worker Service. Solution: Make updates through
the User Service.

performance documents with end dates that lie within the range of
the past date. For example, if the value is 3, and the current date is
January 1, 2013, documents with an end date equal to or after
January 1, 2010, can appear on the list.
Displaying Performance Ratings Based on the Rating Model
Set the profile option for Oracle Fusion Performance Management
to define the rating model that is used in performance documents to
provide the overall ratings that display in analytics and comparisons
of workers. The worker's overall rating for the latest performance
165
document using the profile value will be displayed on the pages of
other business processes and can be used to make comparisons
between workers or a worker's past and present ratings.
Accessing Performance Profile Options:
All three of the Performance Management profile options can be
accessed in FSM using the Manage Profile Options task, which can
be used to access profile options for all
Fusion applications. The profile options can also be accessed in
FSM using the Manage Worker Performance Profile Option Values
task in the Workforce Development offering.

Gather feedback from questionnaires from respondents
Target specific audiences
Manage Questions :
Key Concepts:
• A repository of questions for questionnaires
• Question types
Question Library:
Configuring Questions and Responses in the Question Library
You configure questions and responses in the question library to
add to the questionnaire. You can create four types of questions
and for each question type you also configure specific responses
and select the presentation method to determine how the response
appears. For example, for the single select question type, you can
specify either that the possible responses appear in a single select
choice list or as radio buttons.
168
Questionnaire Question and Response Types :
You can create questions from any of four question types to add to
the question library, and ultimately, to questionnaires.
The available question types are:
Text
Single choice
Multiple choice
No response
Questionnaire Question and Response Types Details :
Text :
For the text question type, a respondent enters a response in a text
field. Answers can be any text, such as single words or sentences,
or characters. You specify a maximum number of characters the
response can contain, and you can optionally specify a minimum
number the respondent must enter.
For the response text field, you specify to utilize either plain text, or
rich text, to let respondents format their responses using bold,
underline, and other characteristics.
Single Choice :
With the single choice question type, you create a question and
respondents select one response from a list you provide. You select
whether to display the responses as either a single select choice
list, or radio buttons.
Respondents can select from either responses that you create, or
from a rating model. When you associate a rating model with the
response type, the possible responses are drawn automatically from
the values of the rating model. For example, if the rating model
contains five rating levels, the short description and the name
associated with the level for all levels, are added directly as
169
responses from which the respondent can choose.
Multiple Choice :
Use the multiple choice question type to create a question and
permit respondents to provide one or more answers. Create the
responses and specify whether the responses are presented as
check boxes or a choice list. You can optionally set both a minimum
and maximum number of required responses.
No Response :
Use the no response question type to add a question with no
accompanying responses. You can use it to add additional
instructions or information in the section, or let respondents add
attachments as a response.
Responses :
Along with the questions, you also specify the responses and how
the responses are presented in the questionnaire. You can also
specify whether to allow respondents to add attachments to the
response.
Rating Models :
Rating models are generally used to rate workers on their
performance and level of proficiency in the skills and qualities, along
with potential, impact of loss, and risk of loss, talent score, and
other attributes.
Rating models can appear in questionnaires for:
Performance evaluations: The rating level is used as a guideline
in questionnaires, and is not used to rate workers.
170
Rating models for questionnaires include the following
component:
Rating Levels: Rating levels identify the qualitative values, such as
1, 2, 3, or 4, that you use to rate or score a worker's performance
Manage Questionnaires and Templates :
Key Concepts:
Template required to create questionnaires
Questionnaire presentation
Access control
Sections
Questions
To create a questionnaire, you must first create the template. You
can then edit the configuration settings in the questionnaire that
were inherited from the template.
Questionnaire Considerations
When creating a questionnaire template or questionnaire:
Determine the intended participant for the questionnaire
Format basic information
Add and format content
Questionnaire Considerations Details :
Determining the Intended Audience for the Questionnaire
You can set up questionnaires to apply for general purposes and a
widespread audience, or to specific audiences. For example, you
can create questionnaires for:
171
A more targeted audience, such as for a specific role like manager,
peer, or internal customer
An even more specific audience, such as for "Peers for the Q2
performance document for 2013"
Formatting Basic Information
Specify the basic information for the questionnaire template or
questionnaire, to make searching and categorization easier and
control access.
Adding and Formatting Content
You control how the various sections in the template appear by
specifying sequence, appearance, and formatting for questions and
responses.
Questionnaire Controls:
ID and Folder :
An ID containing only numbers is generated automatically for each
questionnaire template and questionnaire.
You can change it to any combination of numbers or characters you
need to make it easier to search for or identify.
Owner Name :
The Privacy setting controls access to the questionnaire or
template.
Private: Only the owner can then edit the questionnaire or template.
Public: Anyone with permission to access the questionnaire or
template can edit it.

Determine the Performance attributes to use with OSN
Manage Oracle Social Network Objects for Performance Details
Enable Oracle Social Network to Enhance Collaboration
You can set up Oracle Social Network to work with performance
documents so key individuals can share critical information with
each other and enhance the performance evaluation process. On
the performance document you click Social to access Oracle Social
Network and start a conversation about the performance document.
Setting Up Oracle Social Network Objects
Use the Manage Oracle Social Network Objects page, which you
can access by starting in the Setup and Maintenance Overview
page and searching for the task Manage Oracle Social Network
Objects. You can set up Oracle Social Network to be either:
Manual: Recommended; the object is enabled for manual sharing
with Oracle Social Network, where the social network user decides
whether or not to share each instance of the object with Oracle
Social Network. Once shared, all updates to enabled attributes of
the object instance, and deletes, are sent to Oracle Social Network.
Updates to attributes that are not enabled are not sent.
173
Automatic: Automatically sends new object instances and updates
to Oracle Social Network. All object instances are automatically
shared with Oracle Social Network upon creation and all
subsequent updates to enabled attributes of the object instances,
and deletes, are automatically sent to Oracle Social Network.
Determine the Performance Attributes to Use with OSN
You can attributes that display with each conversation related to the
object that identify the object. You can enable any, or all of these
attributes for Performance in Oracle Social Network:

Manage Performance Roles
Performance Roles Key Concepts:
Creating roles for participants that are eligible to access the
performance document to provide feedback
Providing description to assist users to determine which role to
assign to each participant
Manage Performance Roles for Participant Feedback
Create roles to expand the scope of the performance evaluation to
include 360-degree feedback from participants other than the
worker and the worker's manager. To implement multi-participant
feedback, you must first define the roles that can participate in the
process. Participants can rate workers, and answer questionnaires
about the worker.
To make roles eligible to provide feedback, you must:
174
Define Performance Roles: You can create as many roles as
required for the evaluation process that your organization employs.
For example, you might have roles such as peer, mentor, or
colleague. Every role that you create is classified as a participant
role type. The manager and worker roles are required; you cannot
delete or edit them. You can, however, create performance
templates that do not require either the manager or worker role to
answer a questionnaire, though you must add the role names to the
template to permit the manager or worker to view feedback.
Provide a Role Description: Along with the role name, you can
add a description for the role. The description appears on the
Manage Participant Feedback pages to assist users in determining
which role to assign to each participant.
Make Roles Available to Access the Performance Document: The
participant roles you create, along with the manager and worker
roles, are eligible to access the performance document to provide
feedback. You must select the roles in the general performance
template settings and in each section they will access to make them
available to the role in the performance document.
Associating Questionnaires to Roles: Each role is eligible to
respond to only one questionnaire for each performance document
within a performance period. You associate roles to the
questionnaires that the role uses in the performance template.
Worker Eligibility for Performance Documents
Key Concepts:
Making performance documents available for a specific population
Defining eligibility requirements by criteria you select
Associate eligibility profiles to performance templates
175
Running a batch process to determine all eligible workers for a
document
Worker Eligibility for Performance Documents Details
Making Performance Documents Available for a Specific Population
You can use eligibility profiles to restrict access to performance
documents based on the workers who meet the eligibility profile
criteria.
Defining Eligibility Requirements by Criteria You Select
You can restrict performance documents to workers who meet
eligibility requirements by job, job role, location, age, or other
criteria. For example, you can add a location eligibility profile to a
performance document if you want to restrict the document to
individuals in a specific location. You can further refine eligibility by
adding length of service criteria to restrict workers by both location
and length of service.
Associate Eligibility Profiles to Performance Templates
You associate eligibility profiles with performance templates and
periods to restrict them to eligible workers.
Running a Batch Process to Determine All Eligible Workers for a
Document The batch process enables you to determine all the
workers who are eligible for all available performance documents for
a given period.
Defining Multiple Values for a Criteria Type
If you define multiple values for the same criteria type, such as two
jobs, a person needs to satisfy at least one of the criteria to be
considered eligible. For example, a person with either job is eligible.
If you include multiple criteria of different types, such as job and
position, a person must meet at least one criterion defined for each
criteria type.
176
Worker Eligibility Process Flow :
Process Flow
To use eligibility profiles for performance documents, you must:
Create the profiles (or use existing ones that qualify for use in
Performance)
Add the eligibility profiles to the performance template used for the
documents you need to restrict
Run either or both the eligibility batch process and the individual
worker eligibility process to determine who is eligible for which
documents
Create performance documents, which are then available only to
qualified workers
Manage Talent Eligibility Profiles
Key Actions:
Defining Eligibility Requirements by Criteria You Select
You can define eligibility profiles using criteria such as job, job role,
location, age, or many others.
Attributes for Performance Eligibility Profiles
When creating an eligibility profile for performance documents, you
can select any profile usage. However, because eligibility for a
performance document is determined by assignment, you must
select Specific assignment as the assignment to use. Specific
assignment is automatically selected if you first select Performance
as the profile usage. Then, when the eligibility process is run, it
evaluates every assignment for a worker to determine which, if any,
performance documents the worker is eligible to use for each
assignment.

Manage Eligibility Batch Process Details
Running a Batch Process to Determine All Eligible Workers for a
Document The batch process enables you to determine all the
workers who are eligible for all available performance documents for
a given period. Run the batch process after creating a performance
template and adding eligibility profiles to it.
Select the Effective as-of-Date
This required date is used to determine worker assignments on that
date, and the date on which the performance document appears on
the list of values on the Worker and Manager Overview pages.
Select Performance Document Name
Select this optional parameter to specify a specific document to
process and match to all workers who meet the eligibility criteria.
Select Performance Document Start Date
If you do not specify a performance document, you must enter a
start date. The batch process will include all performance
documents that have a start date on or after the start date that is
entered.
Select Performance Document End Date
Enter this optional parameter, along with the start date, to process
all performance documents with start and end dates equal to or
within the specified dates.
Manage Process Flow Definitions
178
Define Process Flow Definitions Key Concepts:
Process flows include the tasks, and their sequence, used by the
performance template for performance evaluations
Tasks and subtasks
Task sequence
Configurable task names used in performance document
Set up the process flow to include the tasks, and their sequence,
used by the performance template for performance evaluations. You
can create as many process flows as required to support different
types of evaluations, such as annual or semiannual evaluations,
project evaluations, and so on. Each template uses only one
process flow
Tasks and Subtasks
A process flow can contain up to 10 tasks. Some of the tasks
contain subtasks. This is a list of the tasks with a description of the
task function.
Set Goals: Add content to rate, such as competencies and
performance goals, to the performance document. Include this task
to let workers and managers determine the content the worker is
evaluated on, and expectations for the worker, for example, at the
beginning of an evaluation period. If this task is not included,
managers and workers can still add content in the Worker
Self-Evaluation and Manager Evaluation of Worker tasks.
Note: This task is required if the Set Next Period Goals task is
included in the process flow for the preceding evaluation period.
Worker Self-Evaluation: Worker evaluates self. Worker can also
add content to be rated to the performance document. The manager
can track the worker self-evaluation to view any changes to the
content that the worker makes to the performance document, but
179
cannot view the ratings and comments the worker provides until the
worker completes the task.
Manager Evaluation of Worker: Manager evaluates worker.
Manager can also add content to be rated to the performance
document.
Manage Participant Feedback: Select participants to gather
feedback about worker performance by rating workers and
answering questionnaires. Send requests to the participants, add
questions to questionnaires, and track participant feedback to
monitor the status of the request and feedback.
First & Second Approval: Approve the performance document of the
worker. The first and second approval tasks are performed as
separate tasks at different stages of the evaluation by the manager
of the performance document.
Share Performance Document: The manager shares the
document so that the worker can view the manager's ratings, and
the worker acknowledges viewing the ratings.
Confirm Review Meeting Held: After the worker and manager
meet to discuss the evaluation, the manager indicates that the
meeting was conducted, then the worker acknowledges that the
meeting took place.
Provide Final Feedback: Worker and manager can provide final
comments about the evaluation. To use digital signatures to require
workers to verify that they are the people submitting the
performance document, the Worker Provides Final Feedback task is
required.
Set Next Period Goals: The roles are those specified for the Set
Goals task for the performance document for the subsequent
period. Set goals for the period following the active performance
180
document. The following period must be already be defined in the
template in order for the Set Next Period Goals task to work.
For details on the subtasks and roles that relate to these tasks,
Click Help and within Performance Management enter
"performance process flows" to search.
Task Sequence and Names
Task Sequence
After you select the tasks to include as part of the process flow, you
can change the task sequence. Some tasks are logical in sequence
and others may not be required by your organization.
Some tasks have more flexibility. For example, you may want to
arrange the Share Document task either before, or after, the First
Approval task, depending on when you prefer to let workers see the
manager ratings.
During the performance evaluation, all tasks, with the exception of
Set Next Period Goals and Manage Participant Feedback, must be
completed before the next task can be started.
The Set Next Period Goals task can also be performed at any time,
as long as the performance document for the subsequent period is
defined in the template and the document can be created.
Workers can perform the Manage Participant Feedback and Worker
Self-Evaluation tasks concurrently, but only after the Set Goals task
is complete, if it is part of the process flow.
Managers can perform the Manage Participant feedback at the
same time as the worker does the self-evaluation, or when
performing the Evaluate Worker task.
Task Names
You can configure the task and subtask names for both the
manager and worker roles. For example, My Self-Evaluation can be
181
entered as the new name for the Worker Self-Evaluation task.
182
appear in a performance document.
Section Ratings and Weighting
Enable Ratings: For the Profile Content, Goals, and Overall
Summary sections, you can select whether to enable section
ratings.
Rate a Section: When you enable section ratings, managers and
workers can select a rating for the section. When you enable
section ratings, the section is also eligible to use calculated ratings,
which are enable on the Process tab of the performance template.
- For the Profile Content and Goals sections, they can rate the
section separately from the individual evaluation items contained
within the section.
- Specify the rating model to use for the section. The section rating
model can differ from the rating model used for individual evaluation
items in the section.
- For the Profile Content section, the evaluation items include
competency type content items. The Goals section contains
performance goal items.
- You can specify whether to use the Average, Sum, or Band
methods to determine the calculated rating.
Calculated Rating: The Calculate ratings setting on the Process tab
of the performance template enables the application to calculate a
rating for the sections in the template. You can specify whether to
allow managers and workers to view the calculated ratings.
Managers and workers can use the calculated ratings as a guide to
manually select their ratings.
- You can specify the calculation rule to use for each individual
section.
183
- For Profile Content and Goals sections, the application calculates
ratings using the ratings from the Profile Content and Goals
sections.
- For the Overall Summary section, the application calculates
ratings using the Profile Content and Goals section ratings.
Selecting Properties: Select the properties that are added to the
rateable items, competencies and goals, in the performance
document. Select Required to prevent items from being removed
from the performance template.
Weight a Section: You can select to weight a section, or items, in a
section to place more or less importance on the section or item. The
application uses the weights to calculate section and overall ratings.
Add content items to a section: You can configure the
Competencies section to use competencies for a job or position
profile, or a specific profile. For the Goals section, you can specify
whether to use goals from the worker's goals in Goal Management
business process. These specific competencies and goals, based
on the worker profile and Goal Management goals, are added to the
performance document for that worker. You can also add
competencies or goals to the respective section that are added to all
performance documents created from the template.

ORACLE FUSION HCM : GOAL MANAGEMENT
Goal management:
Review period :
Review periods are business periods that you use to link Oracle
Fusion Talent Management business objects to measure and
achieve results within the review period time line.
For example, you can connect an employee's performance to
business objectives and results by associating goal plans in Oracle
Fusion Goal Management and performance documents in Oracle
Fusion Performance Management with business periods using
review periods.
197
As an HR specialist, you create and manage review periods by
using the Manage Review Periods task.
These are mandatory and linked to Goal Plans.
All Goal Plans have to be associated to a Review Period.
The review period on the default goal plan can be changed
through the Manage Goal Plans task, as can many of the
other attributes of the plan.
• Target Outcomes
• Tasks
• SMART Goals
• Goal Plans
Goal Types :
Workers and managers can create three types of goals:
performance, development, and personal.
Performance Goals
Performance goals are results-oriented, measure work-related
performance, and often use specific targets to assess the level of
workers' achievement. Performance goals can be used in
performance documents as part of the evaluation process.
Organization goals are performance goals.
198
Development Goals
Development goals facilitate the career growth of individuals so that
they can perform better in their current jobs or prepare themselves
for advancement.
Personal Goals
Personal goals are available only to the worker. Workers can use
personal goals to stretch their capabilities to increase their skills, for
example, or as draft goals that they can copy to their performance
or development goals.
Target Outcomes :
Target outcomes enable the linking of a goal to specific skills or
qualifications such as competencies, degrees, certifications, and
others.
Tasks :
Tasks are specific actions added to a goal that a worker undertakes
in order to achieve the goal.
199
SMART Goals :
To measure the performance of workers, help them improve
productivity, and achieve career objectives, Goal Management
supports goals that are: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant,
and time-based (SMART).
Goal Plans :
Goal plans are used to manage a collection of performance or
development goals for a specific period. Goal plans can be rolled
out to individuals, a selected hierarchy, or a wider population within
the organization.
• Aligning goals
200
Key Goal Management Actions
201
• When workers add an organization goal to their own goals, that
new goal is automatically aligned to the published organization
goal.
Aligning Goals :
By aligning performance goals, you create a relationship between a
worker's goal and another goal, usually a higher-level organization
or manager goal, so that the worker's goal supports and contributes
to achieving the higher-level goal. Goal alignment provides the
flexibility to:
202
measurement-related attributes, and private. The weight and priority
fields are associated with a goal only when the goal is included in a
goal plan.
Completes a goal:
The status is changed to Completed upon manager approval

A succession plan can be setup for a Job, Job Family, Job Profile,
Position and a Incumbent (Person).
Setting up a succession plan is a pretty easy configuration.
As a consultant you only need to deal with few seeded lookups and
the rest of the work will be done by the HR Specialist/Manager.
215
Job : This type of succession plan is setup against a specific job
from your organization which has already been configured and
workers are assigned. For example Senior Sales Manager
Job Family : This type of succession plan is setup against your Job
family in the organization. A job family is the grouping of jobs of
same nature.
Job Profile : Similarly this type of succession plan is setup against

Content Library :
Content Library is foundation for profiles as it stores Content Type
and content Item.
1. Content Type :
An attribute such as Skills, competencies, qualifications etc..
218
–Licenses and Certifications
The predefined non-free-form content types are:
DEGREE
GOAL
LANGUAGE
CATEGORY
COMPETENCY
MEMBERSHIP
EDUCATION_LEVEL
HONOR
PRODUCT
PRODUCT_PROBLEM_CODE
PROBLEM_CODE
PLATFORM
COMPONENT
Free-Form Content Types:
A free-Form Content type contains only a name, a
code and a description and doesn't have
any properties defined for it until you add it to a profile
type.
Content: Free-form content types do not include a
content items.
Usage : Free-form Content types enable you to capture
information in a profile that you don't need to store
in the content library. For Example you can setup a Free form
content type to store information about the
previous employment information for your workers.
The predefined free-form Content Types are:
PERFORMANCE_RATING
219
WORK_REQUIREMENTS
CAREER_STATEMENT
RISK
ADVANCEMENT_READINESS
POTENTIAL
CAREER_PREFERENCES
SPECIAL_PROJECT
TALENT_SCORE
ACCOMPLISHMENT
AREA_OF_STUDY
220
Fields (content type properties) that appear on the pages with the
content item are:
221
Relationships: Associations between content types, where one
content type is a parent of another, or where one content type
supports another
Subscribers: Other Oracle Fusion applications that use content
types
2. Content Item :
Individual competency, skill, or qualification within a content type
that you track in profiles.
–Competencies
•Presentation Skills
•Problem Solving Skills
•Management Skills
–Languages
•French
•Spanish
Properties: Content items inherit the fields and field properties that
you define for the content type to which the item belongs. For
example, one of the fields
defined for the Memberships content type is ITEM_DESCRIPTION
field. The attributes of this field are set up so that the label is
Description, the field is editable, and the field does not require an
entry. When you set up a content item for the Memberships content
type, you will see a field labeled Description, in which you can enter
text to describe the agency, but the field will not be required.
Another example is the field ITEM_TEXT_2 field defined for the
222
content type Competencies. The attributes for this field is set up so
that the label is Evaluation Method, as shown in the image above,
the field is a list of values. The ITEM_TEXT_2 field includes the
lookup HRT_COMPETENCY_EVAL_TYPE that includes a list of
competency evaluation types.
Related content items: If the content type for which you are
creating an item has related content types, then you can enter the
related content items for the item. For example, if you have a
content type relationship where the Competencies content type is
supported by the Goals content type, then on the content items for
competencies, you can enter the related goals.
3. Content subscriber:
Applications external to oracle fusion profile management that use
content types..
Ex: use content types like HRMS for Human Resources, HRTR for
Talent Review.
Unless the Content Types are shared with an external application, it
is not visible to the external application.
For example, you can include competencies in performance
documents in Performance Management
223
so that you can rate workers on the competencies. To be able to
include competencies in a performance document,
the Competencies content type must include HRA as one of the
subscriber codes.
When you edit predefined content subscribers, you can associate
additional content types,
but you cannot remove any of the existing content types. You
should not remove predefined content subscribers.
Educational Establishments :

Rating Models:
Rating Models :
227
For model profiles, you can specify target proficiency levels for
items on the profile, to compare model profiles with worker profiles.
Using the ratings:
Rating levels
Review points
Rating categories
Distributions
Rating Levels
Rating levels identify the qualitative values, such as 1, 2, 3, or 4,
that you use to rate a worker.
228
Define rating levels using whole numbers, with the highest number
indicating the best rating. Rating levels determine high and low
ratings in the analytics.
Review Points
Define review points for rating models in performance documents
that use the sum or band calculation method. The review points and
point ranges that you define for the rating model are used to
calculate ratings.
Rating Categories
Using rating categories you can group rating levels together for
analysis tools used in the talent review process, such as the box
chart that is used in the talent review process. You can group rating
levels into categories such as low, medium, and high, and those
categories then become the labels for the analytic. You shouldn't
change rating categories after setting them up, as the changes
could affect the analytic.
Distributions
Oracle Fusion Compensation Management and Oracle Fusion
Performance Management both use rating model distributions to
determine the targeted minimum and maximum percentage of
workers that should be given each rating level. Compensation
Management uses the distribution values that you set up directly on
rating models. However, you can set up distributions at the
performance template level for rating models that are used in
Performance Management.

Consider the example of Apparel company that provides various
opportunities for workers
to volunteer for projects that support Social Responsibility,
Environmental Responsibility
and State Citizenship. Management at Apparel company requested
the Fusion implementation
team to design a way to track the Corporate Citizenship activities of
workers so that they
can rate them on their involvement in the organization. In this
example, we also see how a
rating model is used with content type, how to add the new content
type to a person profile
and add a New Content Section to a Profile.
To achieve the above, we would need to complete the following
tasks:
1. Create a rating model
2. Create a Content Type
3. Create Content Items
4. Add the Content Type to the Person Profile Type
5. Adding the New Content Section to a Profile

a best practice, use the
same account numbers for your payroll and general ledger
accounts.
3. If you reconcile payments in Oracle Fusion Cash Management,
create an account
combination for reconciliation differences.
232
Ledger Setup Tasks :
233
processing and reporting
Assign Balancing Segment Values to Ledger :
Optionally, assign specific primary balancing segment values to the
primary and secondary ledgers
to represent transactions for nonlegal entities, such as adjustments.
Manage Reporting Currencies :
Review and update reporting currencies.
Reporting currencies maintain and record subledger and general
ledger journal entries in additional
currencies.
Review and Submit Accounting Configuration :

Open First Period :
Open the first period when you are ready to process transactions for
the ledger.
After you open the first period, use the Manage Accounting Periods
in General Ledger to open and
close periods, and to specify the target period that concludes the
series of calendar periods.
234
FUSION HCM: PAYROLL BALANCES
2.Balance Dimensions :
Each payroll balance can have multiple dimensions, which define
the specific value to retrieve. Balance dimensions are
predefined and typically combine these components:
• Time span, such as run, period to date, or fiscal year to date
• Employment relationship level, either assignment, terms, or payroll
relationship
• Context, required for some balances only, such as tax reporting
unit, element, or payroll
235
For example, if you select the Core Assignment Tax Unit Year to
Date dimension for the Gross Earnings balance, you create
the defined balance GROSS_EARNINGS_ASG_TU_YTD. This
defined balance accumulates gross earnings for an assignment
in a specific tax reporting unit from the beginning of the calendar
year to date.
3.Balance Feeds :
You can feed payroll balances by element input values and by run
results from all the elements in a classification.
Balance Feeds by Element:
Balance feeds by element indicate one or more element input
values to add or subtract from a balance. For each balance feed, all
input values must use the same unit of measure. For example, you
wouldn't mix money and hours in the same balance feed.
Each element and input value can be the primary feed for one
balance only. When you create an element, the element template
creates this balance and feed automatically.
Balance Feeds by Classification :
Balance feeds defined by primary or secondary element
classification or by a subclassification use the input value that has
the special purpose of primary output value. The unit of measure of
this input value must match the unit of measure of the balance.
If you add a primary classification as a balance feed, you can't add
its children from the secondary or subc lassifications.
For example, if you use the Supplemental Earnings primary
classification as a balance feed, you can't also use any other
236
children of Supplemental Earnings. Also, you can't use both
secondary classifications and sub classifications in the same
balance feed.
Balance Feeds for Initial Balance Loading
You can select elements in the Balance Initialization classification to
feed a balance for initialization purposes only. Select one
element for each level of the employment hierarchy associated with
a dimension that you want to initialize.
4.Balances in Net-to-Gross Calculations :
You can determine which deduction balances the net-to-gross
processing uses to calculate the gross amount from the desired net
amount for an earnings element. You set the default values on the
Manage Balance Definitions page.
You can also fine-tune which of the enabled balances are included
for a specific net-to-gross earnings element.
Enabling Inclusion in Net-to-Gross Calculations
The Balance Dimensions page of the Manage Balance Definitions
task shows which dimensions are enabled for inclusion in
net-to-gross calculations. It also shows which of the enabled
dimensions are included by default for each new net-to-gross
earnings element.
Excluding Balances from a Specific Net-to-Gross Earnings Element
If a balance is enabled but not included, you can still use it in the
processing of a specific net-to-gross earnings element. To
do so, you add the balance using the Gross Balance Exclusions link
on the Element Summary page. You can also use this
page to exclude balances that are included by default.
5.Balance Exceptions:
237
•Balance exceptions define the criteria that you want to use in
balance exception reports to identify overpayments,
underpayments, and trends. This information can help detect the
balance adjustments needed to correct payments and identify
people in your organization who are leading in specific areas such
as sales.
•The following examples illustrate two different types of balance
exceptions that you may want to include in your balance exception
reports.
•You create reports using the Manage Balance Exceptions task in
the Payroll Calculation work area.
6.Creating a Balance Exception Report
•Balance exceptions define the criteria that you want to use in
balance exception reports to identify overpayments,
underpayments, and trends.
•This information can help detect the balance adjustments needed
to correct payments and
identify people in your organization who are leading in specific
areas such as sales.

method for each payment type available to employees on that
payroll. There may be more than one payment method with the
same payment type.
2. Check
3. Cash
Payment Sources :
240

defined for each organization payment method. This can be a bank
account or any other source of funds. In Oracle Fusion Cash
Management, it is associated with an active bank account.
Personal Payment Methods:
241
either Check or Cash.

FUSION HCM PAYROLL ELEMENTS
Elements:
Elements are building blocks of Payroll that help determine the
payment of base pay, benefits, absences, and other earnings
and deductions.
Elements are the means of communicating payment and
distribution information to payroll applications.
Apart from within Payroll(for bonuses, overtime earnings,
etc.),
Compensation Benefits (on the basis of the base pay) and
Absence Management (for absence payments like in the case
of maternity leaves and other long leaves).
Element Classification:
They are a mechanism by which you classify the Element as
Earnings or Deductions and defines a default processing
priority for the element in payroll runs.
Primary Classifications:
Primary classifications meet the legislative requirements of
your country or territory, so you can't change them.
Secondary Classifications:
Secondary classifications are subsets of the primary
classifications. Use them to manage wage basis rules for
deductions and taxes.
You can't remove or change any predefined secondary
classifications. In some countries or territories, you can
createyour own secondary classifications.
Sub classifications:
339
Sub classifications provide a way to feed balances. Elements
can have only one primary and secondary classification, but
multiple sub classifications.
Frequency rules determine which pay periods a recurring
element should be included in the payroll process.
For example, a monthly deduction might be processed in the
third period of the month for employees paid weekly and in the
second period of the month for employees paid on a
semimonthly basis. This region identifies if frequency rules
have been enabled for this classification.
Process Order:
These fields define the priority for element processing.
Elements with lower numbers are processed first.

2. Division
3. Business Unit
4. Legal Entity
5. Department
6. Reference Data Sharing
356
•Fusion Applications supports a qualified management segment and
recommends that you use this segment to represent your hierarchy
of business units and divisions
3. Business Unit:
357
Legal Entities is nothing but a Organization. Where we want to
Business Legally.
OR
Legal Entity is nothing but where we register our company for the
purpose of social insurance and payroll related information.
•Define a legal entity for each registered company or other entity
recognized in law for which you want to record assets, liabilities,
expenses and income, pay transaction taxes, or perform
intercompany trading
•Required to publish specific and periodic disclosures of your legal
entities‘ operations based on different jurisdictions' requirements.
•Your legal entities can be identified as legal employers and
therefore, are available for use in Human Capital Management
(HCM) applications.
•Frequently, a business unit is part of a single legal entity.
•Division is an area of management responsibility that can
correspond to a collection of legal entities.
•Divisions and legal entities are independent concepts.
•Legislative data groups are a means of partitioning payroll and
related data. At least one legislative data group is required for each
country where the enterprise operates. Each legislative data group
is associated with one or more payroll statutory units
•Legal entities are mandatory.
5.Department:
358
Department is an organization with one or more operational
objectives or responsibilities that exist independently of its manager
•Has one or more workers assigned to it
•Departments are mandatory because they track your employees
6.Reference Data Sharing:
359
•For example, assign separate sets for jobs, payment terms,
transaction types, and sales methods to your business units
•Make changes carefully as changes to a particular set will affect all
business units or application components using that set
Key Points :
Set enabled objects in HCM are: Departments, Locations, Jobs &
Grades
•When you create these objects the Set is mandatory field, so they
are always created within a Set
•With each Business Unit, you can associate only one Department
Set, one Location Set etc
•Same set can be associated with multiple Business Units
•There is a Set available out of the box that is called Common Set
•Positions are not set enabled but are defined within a Business
Unit.
360
•After you define your enterprise structure and your job and position
structures, you can review them, make any necessary changes, and
then load / rollback the final configuration.
In summary,
•Create all the organizational structures at one time
•Create multiple configurations to test multiple scenarios
•Review the enterprise configuration prior to loading it
•Rollback an enterprise configuration after loading it.

no work relationships exist in the enterprise or legal employer
At any time, you can switch from one Three-Tier employment model

relationship exist in the enterprise and vice versa.
Multiple Assignments to single Assignment

FUSION HCM : WORK FORCE LIFE CYCLE
366
Person records are global in oracle fusion, independent of legal
employers, and created once only for any person. If the person
leaves the enterprise, you terminate the person's work relationships.
If the person later rejoins the enterprise, you create a new work
relationship. The person record continues to exist, even when the
person has no current work relationships in the enterprise and no
current contact relationships with other workers.
Now the following scenarios illustrate when you will create a person
record and when you create a work relationship. In all the cases, if
you try to create a person record when one already exists, and the
application finds the existing record, you continue by creating a
work relationship for the existing person.
Adding a Person
Rehiring an Employee
367
When you attempt to hire Peter the application finds his existing
person record. When you confirm that the existing person record is
Mary's, you continue the rehire process by creating an employee
work relationship with Peter's new legal employer in France.
Hiring a Nonworker
Hiring a Contact
368
identify her, the application finds her existing person record. In this
case, you continue the hiring process by creating an employee work
relationship with her new legal employer. Otherwise, the hiring
process creates both a person record and a work relationship for
Reena.
Work Relationships
369
A worker or nonworker must have one, and only one, primary work
relationship. All other work relationships are nonprimary. A person's
first work relationship is the primary relationship, by default.
A person's overall primary assignment belongs to the person's
primary work relationship. Regardless of how many work
relationships and assignments a person has, you may need
information about a person from a single assignment. For example,
some government reports are based on one assignment only. In
these cases, the person's primary assignment is used. In general, a
person's primary work relationship and assignment are those that
are of most significance, in terms of status, pay, benefits, and
working hours, to the person.
370
The first name, the first character of the last name, and the date of
birth are the same.
The last name, the first character of the first name, and the date of
birth are the same.
If one of the criteria is missing when the other two criteria produce a
match, the application identifies the record as a matching record.
Transfer
371
Temporary Assignment - It is a transfer for a limited term (for
example temporary secondment to another department in the
absence of a department head). You end a temporary assignment
by initiating the End Temporary Assignment action and specifying a
return date. The temporary assignment is terminated and the
original assignments are reinstated automatically on the return date.
Global Transfer and Global Temporary Assignment - Use the Global
Transfer or the Global Temporary Assignment action to initiate a
transfer or create a temporary assignment in another legal
employer, respectively. Use the End Global Temporary Assignment
action to terminate a temporary assignment in another legal
employer and reinstate the original assignments in the source legal
employer automatically on a date that you specify.
When you transfer a person within the same legal employer the
work relationship remains unchanged. You make any necessary
changes in the current assignment. If the worker being transferred
has other active assignments in the current work relationship, they
are terminated and their status is changed to Inactive- Payroll
Eligible by default. If you use employment terms, you can either
transfer within the same employment terms or create new
employment terms. The existing set of employment terms and
assignments in the current work relationship are terminated if you
create new ones, and their status is set to Inactive- Payroll Eligible
372
by default. You can override the default by deselecting the
assignments that you do not want to terminate; these assignments
retain their original statuses. You can deselect all assignments

Terminate a Worker
When workers or nonworkers leave the enterprise, you terminate
their work relationships. Terminate a work relationship, either
worker or nonworker, if you want to end all the assignments in the
work relationship. Use the Manage Employment page to end an
individual assignment within the work relationship. If the person has
a single assignment, however, the only way to end the assignment
is to terminate the entire work relationship. If a person has multiple
work relationships and you want to terminate all of them, you must
terminate one work relationship at a time, leaving the primary
relationship until last.
When you terminate a work relationship, any employment terms and
assignments associated with the work relationship are ended
automatically. The status of the work relationship and the
associated employment terms and assignments are changed to
inactive on the day following the termination date. The period of
service, both legal employer and enterprise, ends on the termination
date. The person becomes an ex-employee or ex-contingent worker
for that legal employer. Rehire the employee or renew the
contingent worker placement to create a new period of service. The
person's user access and roles are revoked by default after the
termination date. You can choose to revoke user access earlier, as
soon as the termination is approved.
