HCM COMMON FEATURES
The following HCM common features include enhancements for Release 10:
HCM Data Loader is a flexible and comprehensive bulk-data-loading solution for business objects across
multiple Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management products. You can use it for data-migration,
ongoing inbound interfaces, and one-off bulk updates. It supports the bulk load of your configured
descriptive and extensible flexfield data, translation data, tree hierarchies, person images, and
Document of Record attachments.
You can now select files for HCM Data Loader processing directly from your local machine, removing the
need to upload your files first to the Oracle WebCenter Content server.
The existing Import File button displays unprocessed files available on the Oracle WebCenter Content
server. The new Import Local File option allows you to either browse for a local file or drag and drop a
file from your file explorer to the Browse button.
. 34
Your selected file is uploaded to the Oracle WebCenter Content server and the Schedule Request page
opens. On this page, you can immediately submit your file for processing.
STEPS TO ENABLE
KEY RESOURCES
You can now simplify your inbound integrations by including the business object components and
attributes relevant to your use case, whether that be full date-effective history for data migration, or
incremental changes for data maintenance. You can supply multiple business object specific files in one
compressed zip file and process them together. HCM Data Loader understands the order in which the
business object data must be loaded to ensure referenced data is loaded first.
STEPS TO ENABLE
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about HCM Data Loader file formats, go to My Oracle Support for the following
guide:
You can now optionally deliver encrypted compressed zip files to Oracles WebCenter Content server
secured by a specific HCM Data Loader account. The compressed zip file is then streamed from the
WebCenter Content server and decrypted during import into stage tables before a multithreaded
process loads valid objects into Oracle Fusion. You can use either the Oracle Fusion HCM File Import and
. 35
Export interface, or the WebCenter Content web service to deliver a zip file to the WebCenter Content
server.
Your compressed zip file is deleted by default from the WebCenter Content server as soon as HCM Data
Loader has finished streaming it. You can change the default behavior by updating the Delete Source
File parameter to No on the Configure HCM Data Loader page. Alternatively, you can choose to retain
your source files for an individual file by setting the Delete Source File parameter to No on the Schedule
Request window.
STEPS TO ENABLE
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about delivering data files to the Oracle WebCenter Content server, go to My
Oracle Support for the following guide:
You can now automate inbound interfaces using the WebCenter Content and HCM Data Loader web
services, or control the import and loading processes using the new Import and Load Data user
interface.
You can use the Import and Load Data user interface to manually initiate the import and optional load of
a data set (zip file) and monitor the progress of that data set. The user interface includes a Data Set
table and a Business Objects table. The Data Set table displays the data sets or zip files submitted for
processing. The Business Objects table displays the business objects that were included in the zip file.
On both the Data Set and Business Objects tables the Imported and Loaded Progress columns display
the status of import and load.
. 36
Import and Load Data User Interface
STEPS TO ENABLE
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about HCM Data Loader automated or user managed imports, go to My Oracle
Support for the following guide:
You can use the following methods to review and monitor the status of your import and load requests:
Import and Load Data user interface Allows review of the progress of your files via the
Import and Load Data user interface, with comprehensive status and record count
information, message summary, and error management that allows you to review the
details of failed records.
. 37
The Data Set Table in the Import and Load Data User Interface
HCM Extract - You can monitor the results of your data loading using the new HCM Extract
output, which provides machine readable status and error information.
Data Set Status - You can also diagnose complex errors using the new Data Set Status
available from the Diagnostic framework.
STEPS TO ENABLE
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about status and error handling with HCM Data Loader, go to My Oracle Support
for the following guide:
You can create new objects specifying your source-system identifier and continue to maintain and
reference that data in Oracle Fusion using your Source Key. Alternatively, supply the User Key
information, for example Organization Name, Person Number, or Absence Type. In addition Oracle
Fusions internal surrogate ID and Globally Unique ID (GUID) can be used.
. 38
STEPS TO ENABLE

The Purge Person process, available from the Diagnostic Framework, purges the following person-
related data from your stage and test environments:
Absences
Benefits
Compensation
Documents and Attachments
Performance Data
Goals and Performance
Talent Profile
Payroll Relationships
Element Entries
Calculation Cards
Addresses
Assignments (including Extra Information Types )
Work Relationships
Contacts and Contact Relationships
Worker Personal Information (including Passport, Citizenship, E-Mails, Licenses, National
Identifiers, and Extra Information Types )
Roles and User Details
The Purge Person process does not purge data that was created using HCM File-Based Loader, nor does
it purge predefined person data.
You can specify which records to purge by supplying comma-delimited person numbers or person IDs.
Alternatively, supply a SQL query to return the person IDs for all person records that you want to purge.
. 39
STEPS TO ENABLE
Raise a service request through My Oracle Support (MOS) to request enablement of the Purge Person
process on your stage and test pods.
This process cannot be enabled in production environments.
You can run the Purge Person process without committing the purge so that you can review the results
before you delete the data permanently.
KEY RESOURCES
For more information on purging person data, see the following document on My Oracle Support
(MOS):
Purging HCM Data from Test and Stage Environments (Document ID 2132109.1)
UPLOAD OF ASSIGNMENT RECORDS WITH EFFECTIVE DATES THAT ARE LATER THAN THE
TERMINATION DATE
Prevent the upload of invalid assignment records using HCM Data Loaders new validation. Prior to this
enhancement, it was possible to load an assignment record for a terminated work relationship where:
The status of the assignment record was set to either ACTIVE or SUSPENDED.
The effective dates of the assignment record were later than the termination date of the
work relationship.
You can continue to load assignment records for a terminated work relationship where the effective
dates are later than the work relationship termination date, provided that the assignment status is
INACTIVE. No other assignment status is valid.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Perform global transfers efficiently. A global transfer involves the termination of an existing work
relationship with one legal employer and the creation a new work relationship with a different legal
employer. The addition of the GlobalTransferFlag attribute enables you to perform global transfers
efficiently in uploaded work relationship records.
To perform a global transfer when the source work relationship is the workers primary work
relationship, you load:
. 40
The new work relationship record with the GlobalTransferFlag attribute set to Y and an
action code from the EMPL_GLB_TRANSFER action type
The child components of the new work relationship record
HCM Data Loader automatically terminates the existing primary work relationship and sets the
termination date to the day before the start date of the new work relationship.
You can perform a global transfer of the primary work relationship only when no active secondary work
relationships exist.
To perform a global transfer when the source work relationship is a nonprimary work relationship, you
load:
The new work relationship record with the GlobalTransferFlag attribute set to Y and an
action code from the EMPL_GLB_TRANSFER action type
The existing nonprimary work relationship record without the GlobalTransferFlag attribute
The child components for the new work relationship record but not for the existing
nonprimary work relationship record
The parent worker record
HCM Data Loader automatically terminates the existing nonprimary work relationship and sets the
termination date to the day before the start date of the new work relationship.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Include now only one row for each worker in the data file, when you create workers or update existing
workers. As no date-effective attributes are exposed on the worker component, there is no functional
reason for storing date-effective history in the PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F table. To correct any attribute of an
existing worker record, you must perform a correction.
For new worker records created using HCM Data Loader, the Start Date and Effective Start Date
attributes of the worker component must equal the start date of the workers earliest work relationship.
Any mismatch in these dates now causes an error to be raised.
STEPS TO ENABLE
When you configure a multirow extensible key flexfield, you can configure one or more segments as the
key that uniquely identifies a single row of the multirow context. HCM Data Loader treats these
. 41
segments as user-key attributes, which ensures that you can reference a single flexfield record using
only user keys.
STEPS TO ENABLE
KEY RESOURCES
Oracle Fusion Global Human Resources enables your organization to plan, manage and optimize all
workforce segments using flexible and extensible best practices to realize extraordinary gains while
ensuring compliance and increasing total workforce engagement.
The Manage Features by Country or Territory task, formerly Manage Payroll Product Usage, now
includes options for controlling the address style and the level of address validation. The address style
determines which address attributes are available and maintained in the application. The address style
can also affect validation, for example, if you specify that geography uses an address style to validate
specific attributes. For example, in the United States, the address style can be defined to validate the
State attribute.
The combination of address style and address validation determines the level of validation. The values
you can select depend on the combination of the country or territory and the selected country
extension. For example, for Canada, you can change the address style from its original value only when
you set the country extension to Human Resources or None, not Payroll or Payroll Interface.
. 42
Manage Features by Country or Territory Page
STEPS TO ENABLE
Changing address styles can affect validation rules and may lead to address data integrity
and validation issues. If you provide data to a third party, such as a payroll or benefit
provider, statutory recipients, or financial institutions, changes to validation or address
styles may result in missing data or unrecognized data. Make sure to test any changes you
make to the address style or validation for a country or territory before you implement
them in a production environment.
Disabling address validation disables only any country-specific programmatic validation
rules created for a specific country or territory. Disabling address validation on the Manage
Features by Country or Territory page does not have any impact on the validation you have
set up on the Manage Geographies page.

PAYROLL
This section describes new features that are relevant if you use features such as elements, formulas,
payroll definitions and database items, even if you dont use Global Payroll. Typical applications using
payroll common features are Absence Management, Benefits, Compensation, Global Human Resources,
Global Payroll Interface and Time and Labor.
You can easily create payroll elements for the plans you create in Oracle Fusion Absence Management.
When you create an element, you complete questions that automatically create an absence element
and its calculation components, related elements, balances, and formulas. For example, you select the
type of information to transfer and the calculation units to use when reporting the absence. If you
transfer accrual balances, you decide whether to:
You can also select a method to reduce regular earnings if employees dont complete a time card. You
determine rates for your payments either in Absence Management or when you complete the element
template questions. When processing absence entries in a payroll run, the formula associated to the
absence element uses the global formula Rate Converter to convert rates.
You associate the absence element to a plan in Absence Management, assign the plan to a person and
decide whether to automatically transfer the absence information as its recorded and approved, or run
a batch process. The daily breakdown and summary information transferred to the persons calculation
. 44
card is processed in the next payroll run. You can then view the persons absence accrual balance,
absence payments, and deductions on their statement of earnings and payslip.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Select the rate to use for an absence element in your absence plan or in the element template. If you
select the rate on both pages, ensure you select the same rate.
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about absence elements, go to Applications Help for the following topic:
This feature only applies to user-defined legislations and predefined country extensions that have
enabled the feature in this release.
You can create nonrecurring elements using the new Time Card category to process pay based on time
card entries, such as elements for regular, overtime, and shift pay. Creating a time card element
automatically generates all the related elements, balances, formulas, and calculation components
required to calculate and process payments for reported time. When you create an element, you select
a primary classification of standard or supplemental earnings and select the Time Card category. You
can select the units to use to report calculated time, and also select a rate definition the formula uses to
calculate time. After you submit the element definition, you create element eligibility records for the
base, results, calculation, and retroactive elements generated by the element template.
Important: Do not create elements using the Time Card category if you are operating in a country where
Oracle provides an HR, Payroll Interface, or Payroll Extension, as indicated on the Manage Features by
Country or Territory page in the Setup and Maintenance work area.
. 45
Time Card Template Questions
Submit this process to convert a standard or supplemental element to a time card element only if you
created the element. You only submit this process to convert standard and supplemental elements to
time card elements if either of the following conditions applies. You created the element:
Before this release and you didnt submit the Create Time Card Calculation Components
process to convert the element
After upgrading to this release but without selecting the Time Card category
These elements must have a calculation rule of hours multiplied by rate. After running the process, you
perform the following steps:
Create element eligibility records for the elements generated by the process, typically the
base element and the related elements: retroactive and results elements, and elements
ending with a suffix of CIR.
Compile the formulas used to calculate the time card element.

SIMPLIFIED BANK ACCOUNT PAGE
A new page for creating bank account information is now available that works with a new profile option
to control whether employees and professional users can create bank and branch data. You can choose
to use either the original page or the new page. You can enable the new page at the site, country, or
legislative data group level.
The following screen captures show a comparison between the original and new versions of the Create
Bank Account page. For each version, there are two screen captures of the page:

STEPS TO ENABLE
NOTE: If you choose to use the original Create Bank Account page, you dont need to enable this
feature.
1. Enable the simplified bank account page using the Payroll User Interface Configuration formula
and the Show Simplified Bank Account preference in a user-defined table. For detailed steps,
refer to the Payroll User Interface Configuration feature described elsewhere in this document.
NOTE: If you want users to select only the preloaded banks and branches ensure that you set the Use
Existing Banks and Branches profile option to Yes. Refer to the next section for details.
If you set the Use Existing Banks and Branches profile option to No, which enables
employees or other roles to create banks and branches, provide guidance to use unique
names and follow appropriate naming conventions.
This profile option works with the new Create Bank Account page that employees and
professional users see when creating personal payment methods. This profile option does
not affect the original version of the Create Bank Account page.

If you create or customize a BI Publisher report, you can run your report from a payroll flow by adding
the Run BI Publisher Report task to your payroll flow pattern. When you submit the flow, the reporting
automatically generates an output file that you can view. The output file is based on the template used
for the BI Publisher report, such as an HTML template. Add single or multiple BI Publisher reports to
your copied or user-defined flow pattern.
STEPS TO ENABLE
1. Create a flow pattern on the Manage Payroll Flow Patterns page in the Payroll Checklist work
area.
2. Complete on the Create Payroll Flow Pattern page the basic information. Select the Statutory
activity, and the run BI Publisher Report task.
3. Edit on the Task page the selected task as required.
4. Confirm on the Task Sequence page the sequence is correct.
5. Add a required parameter for the first argument of the BI Publisher report on the Flow
Parameter page. The flow parameters map to the BI Publisher arguments. For example, the first
. 49
argument is the first bind variable of a SQL query data model. Optionally, rename the
parameter to a more meaningful name.
6. Confirm and specify in the Parameter Details section of the Task Parameters page the following:
Confirm that the Parameter Basis for the First Argument value is Bind to Flow.
Specify a value for the Report Name and Report Path parameters.
Specify values for other arguments if required.
Submit your HCM extract reports, payroll processes, and flows directly from the Enter Parameters page

This section describes new features that are relevant if you use Oracle Tap for HCM Mobile applications.
Oracle Tap works on smart devises that have a web browser, such as smart phones and tablets.
Oracle Tap mobile solutions supports the same languages available in Fusion HCM Cloud with the
exception of languages that read from right to left.
STEPS TO ENABLE
. 52
MOBILE - ACCESS WORKER SOCIAL WALL
Within Oracle Tap, you can start an Oracle Social Network (OSN) conversation with a worker that you
have selected. This feature requires that the OSN app is installed on the device because Oracle Tap uses
punch-out integration with OSN to connect.
STEPS TO ENABLE
To connect with OSN, you need to install OSN on your mobile device and setup an appropriate OSN
account. If you have an active account in both Fusion and OSN, then you can use this feature.
You can view and act on workflow tasks on the Notification/Approvals page on your mobile device. As a
manager, you can approve or reject a task and access the details task page. The details task page is a
web view of the detail task view. Actions can only be done within the list view of the Notification page.
STEPS TO ENABLE
. 53
ROLE SIMPLIFICATION
Role definitions for the security reference implementation are simplified. Many roles beneath the job
level are eliminated. The privileges that are defined are assigned to job or abstract roles, either directly
or as aggregate privileges (which are new to Release10). This reduces the complexity of role
administration and customization. Some things to consider with the role simplification are:
An aggregate privilege combines the functional privilege for an individual task or duty with
the relevant data privileges. Oracle defines and delivers aggregate privileges, these cannot
be customized.
Privileges or aggregate privileges can be assigned directly to job or abstract roles. (In
Release 9, privileges could be assigned only to duty roles.)
Every job or abstract role that existed in Release 9 also exists in the simplified role hierarchy for Release
10. Each of these job or abstract roles authorizes the same privileges in Release 10 as it did in Release 9.
Release 10 adds some new job roles. The nodes in the hierarchy between a job and its privileges are
reduced and simplified.
Release 10 will include both the hierarchy you are used to and the new simplified hierarchy. On
upgrade, users will be members of the old hierarchy. You can move users to the new hierarchy at your
discretion. Note that new functionality will exist under the new hierarchy.

APPLICATIONS SECURITY
Oracle Fusion Applications Security provides a single console in which security managers and security
administrators can review, design, and modify roles in Oracle Fusion Applications. It enables users to
visualize the relationship among roles, and to model applications-menu and task-pane entries for any
role. Users can also manage certificates and review a set of security reports.
You may create a new role by copying an existing role, then editing the copy. You have the option of
copying only the "top" role (the role itself) or the top role and its inherited roles.
If you choose to copy only the top role, your copy shares its role hierarchy with the source role. That is,
the source role inherits subordinate roles, and your copy inherits the same roles. Subsequent changes to
those inherited roles will affect not only the source role, but also your copy.
If you choose to copy the top role and its inherited roles, the copied top role inherits new copies of all
subordinate roles. This option insulates the copied role from any changes to the original versions of the
inherited roles.
STEPS TO ENABLE
. 55
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Enter the role name suffix to use during role copy in the Administration tab. This suffix will be used
every time you copy inherited roles.
A role belongs to a category, which describes the purpose the role shares in common with other roles.
Typically a category contains a type of role configured for an application, such as "Financials Duty
Roles." You can review statistics about the categories themselves: the number of roles in each, the
number of role memberships (roles belonging to other roles within the category), and the number of
function and data security policies created for those roles. (Roles by Category pie chart compare the
number of roles in each category with those in other categories.)
You can select a category and list the roles belonging to it. For each role, you can review its role
memberships, function and data security policies, and users assigned to it.
STEPS TO ENABLE
. 56
AGGREGATE PRIVILEGES
Aggregate privileges are new in this release. Each aggregate privilege combines the functional privilege
for an individual task or duty with the relevant data privileges. Oracle defines aggregate privileges,
which cannot be customized. You can however, include them within job hierarchies that you define.
When a job hierarchy uses aggregate privileges and you depict that hierarchy in the Security Console
visualization, the aggregate privileges appear as distinct elements of the hierarchy.

A digital certificate establishes public and private keys for encrypting and decrypting data that Oracle
Cloud applications exchange with other applications. You can now generate certificates in the X.509
format and/or continue to generate PGP formatted certificates. You can also export saved X.509
certificates for signing by a certifying authority or for use in other certificate systems.
STEPS TO ENABLE
. 57
GENERATE CERTIFICATE SIGNING REQUEST FOR X.509 CERTIFICATE
When you generate an X.509 certificate it exists initially at a self-signed state. You transform it to a
trusted state by having it digitally signed by a certificate authority. The Security Console enables you to
create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR), a file that you would then send to a certificate authority. You
would then import the response as a trusted certificate.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Although the Security Console creates the CSR, you are expected to follow a process established by your
organization to forward the CSR to a certificate authority. This process does not apply to PGP
certificates.
You can import an X.509 certificate, typically belonging to an external source with which your system is
to communicate. One or more X.509 certificates may be contained within a keystore and you have the
option of importing certificates from a keystore. (Alternatively, you may import a certificate file on its
own.)

. 64
Assignment Hours Details
In Absence Management, when a worker schedules an absence, the work schedule timings and number
of hours for that particular day are reflected on the absence request page.
For Example: A workers assignment hours are from 08:00 to 12:00 every Friday. When you schedule an
absence for the worker on a Friday, the availability calculation uses the workers start and end times to
determine the workers availability by day. So the total absence time calculated for the worker is four
hours.
This feature is available in Global Human Resources. When a worker schedules an absence in Absence
Management, the application automatically calculates the workers absence hours based on the work
schedule.

ABSENCE RECORDS FOR CONTINGENT WORKERS
Absence Management now supports absences for contingent workers. You can add the absences for
contingent workers the same way as for employees and through the same user interfaces.
However, you may want to process your contingent worker absences differently from those of
employees, and have separate absence types and absence plans for them. You can define the absence
plans for contingent workers so that their absence information does not transfer to payroll for
processing. Use eligibility profiles to restrict these Absence types for contingent workers.
STEPS TO ENABLE

Absence Management now provides the option to track plan entitlements under a rolling forward
period definition. A rolling forward period calculates the start date from 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 10 Feb, then the end date
will be 09 Feb of the following year. The rolling forward option evaluates absences between this start
date and end date to track plan entitlements for that period.
To use the rolling forward option:
1. In the Absence Administration work area, click Manage Absence Plans to open the Manage
Absence Plans page.

BENEFITS
Oracle Fusion Benefits is a complete, configurable and flexible global solution that enables organizations
to successfully evolve and adapt to the unique needs of their workforce. The solution enables setup of
traditional 'one-size fits all' plans to highly complex plans that selectively target different workforce
segments with different benefit packages. Self-service capabilities present the user with an out of the
box intuitive guided enrollment process with contextual information and embedded analytics.
Control the rate start date based on the date of the first pay check on or after the enrollment start date
without using a rate periodization formula.
You use the new Pay Period Start, Before First Check, on or After Coverage Start rule for plans with
waiting periods or flexible spending accounts, for biweekly, weekly, or semi-monthly payroll
participants.
You select the rule in the Coverage and Rate Date Ranges section of the Enrollment step in the Create or
Edit Plan or Program page of the Plan Configuration work area.

For example, your enterprise enforces a waiting period of 30 days for enrolling new hires on biweekly
payrolls into a flexible spending plan. You want the flexible spending account rate to start on the first
day of the pay period that precedes the date of the first pay check on or after the enrollment start date.
You hire a worker on November 1, 2014. The worker makes elections on November 12, 2014. In this
case, the enrollment start date is December 1, 2014. The first check date after the enrollment start date
is December 13, 2014. If you use this date rule, the rate starts November 30, 2014, which is the start of
the pay period, in time for the next check date on December 13, 2014.

COMPENSATION AND TOTAL COMPENSATION STATEMENT
Oracle Fusion Compensation enables your organization to plan, allocate, and communicate
compensation using the most complete solution in the market. Make better business decisions using
embedded analytics and a total compensation view of workers, regardless of geographic location or pay
package components.
A new task available in plan setup, called Configure Hierarchies, enables you to create up to three
hierarchies for a single compensation plan to give multiple managers access to the same workers.
A hierarchy determines the workers that appear on each manager's worksheet. The source of these
hierarchies can be the primary line manager hierarchy, another manager hierarchy, a formula, or a
position or department tree.
The primary hierarchy, what we have today, determines the approval chain, the path that budgets roll
down, and modeling usage.
The secondary and the review hierarchies enable other users to view compensation information for
workers available to them, propose allocations, and save those allocations. The primary worksheet
manager can either accept or overwrite those proposals.
For each hierarchy, you can configure how to handle a worker who does not have a manager and the
default access level.
. 84
Managers See Plans for Which they have Access
If a manager doesnt have a secondary managed plan or other plan to review, those regions dont
appear on the Compensation Plans page.
Global settings are also enhanced with new configuration options to control notifications when
manually delegating workers.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Use the Configure Hierarchies task when you set up your workforce compensation plan.
Examples are:

Organization security profiles include a new option, Include future organizations. Position security
profiles include a new option, Include future positions. These options, which are deselected by default,
control whether users can access future-dated objects that satisfy all other criteria in the security
profile.
For example, if you create an organization security profile to include all enterprise departments, then
users cant access departments with future start dates unless you select Include future organizations.
. 110
Option to Include Future Organizations in an Organization Security Profile
STEPS TO ENABLE
By default, future-dated organizations and positions arent included in existing organization and position
security profiles. If appropriate, you can update existing organization and position security profiles to
include future-dated organizations and positions.
Until now, any person information that was shared with the signed-in user was included unconditionally
in person security profile data instance sets. Having to include this information was causing
performance problems, even though the Information Sharing feature isnt widely used. Therefore, its
been decided to make the inclusion of shared information optional. On the Create Person Security
Profile and Edit Person Security Profile pages, you now see the Include shared people information
option, which is deselected by default. If you want to include shared information in the security profile
data instance set, then you must select this option.
. 111
Option to Include Shared Person Information on the Create Person Security Profile Page
STEPS TO ENABLE
By default, shared person information is still included in existing person security profiles unless Access
to Own Record is the only other criterion in the security profile. If appropriate, you can update existing
security profiles to deselect Include shared people information.
The Apply Autoprovisioning button, which updates autoprovisioning for the enterprise, has been
removed from the Create Role Mapping and Edit Role Mapping pages. Having this button available in
role mappings was causing performance problems, as users were applying autoprovisioning repeatedly

POSITION SYNCHRONIZATION WHEN USING HCM DATA LOADER TO LOAD POSITION CHANGES
Position synchronization is disabled when using HCM Data Loader (HDL) to load position changes, for
performance reasons. This means that the load will not update the affected assignments even if position
synchronization is enabled.
In order to synchronize, you can run the process, Position Synchronization Job to update the affected
assignments using the Scheduled Processes work area. This process currently allows you to specify only
one effective date. Therefore, the position changes will show date-effective assignment updates as of
the same date even though the HDL load specifies position changes with different effective dates.
The above behavior is applicable only to HDL. If you use the Manage Position UI to edit the position
attributes, the changes will normally trigger updates to the affected assignments.

CHANGES TO PRIVILEGES FOR PREDEFINED JOB ROLES
The following three topics describe changes made to the privileges for predefined job roles.
Import Worker Privilege from the IT Security Manager Job Role is removed
Authorization to run the Send Personal Data for Multiple Users to LDAP Process
Edit User Name Action from workers and line managers is removed
IMPORT WORKER PRIVILEGE FROM THE IT SECURITY MANAGER JOB ROLE CHANGE
Until now, the IT Security Manager job role has inherited the Import Worker privilege. This privilege is
not appropriate for the IT Security Manager job role and is removed in this release. Only the Human
Capital Management Application Administrator job role inherits the Import Worker privilege.
AUTHORIZATION TO RUN THE SEND PERSONAL DATA FOR MULTIPLE USERS TO LDAP PROCESS
After loading person records in bulk, youre recommended to run the Send Personal Data for Multiple
Users to LDAP process to correct any differences in the person data held by HCM and Oracle Identity
Management. Until now, HR Specialists could run this process. From this release, HR Specialists are no
longer authorized to run the process. Only users who have the Human Capital Management Application
Administrator job role can run Send Personal Data for Multiple Users to LDAP.
The following screen capture shows the process in the Search and Select dialog box in the Scheduled
Processes work area. The signed-in user has the Human Capital Management Application Administrator
job role.
EDIT USER NAME ACTION FROM WORKERS AND LINE MANAGERS CHANGE
Until now, users have been able to edit their own user names by selecting the Edit User Name action on
the Manage User Account page. Line managers have been able to edit the user names of their reports in
. 128
the same way. Being able to edit user names is inappropriate for these users. Therefore, in this release,
the Edit User Name action is removed from the Manage User Account page for workers and line
managers. Edit User Name remains available to HR specialists on the Manage User Account page.
STEPS TO ENABLE
The Person Management entry in the Navigator is now secured by the Manage Person Work Area

We have enhanced the Manage Rate Definitions page to provide new options for defining rates, in
addition to the existing options based on payroll balances or element input values. Now you can also
calculate and retrieve rates from other rate definitions, or using values defined by criteria, or by calling a
formula, for example to retrieve a rate from a user-defined table.
Other enhancements support currency conversions and rate conversions that enable you to use the
part-time or full-time status of employees.
With these enhancements, you can:
Set up separate base rates of pay for different types of employees. For example, if each set
of employees receives an allowance that's a percentage of the base rate, you only need to
define one allowance rate that's calculated based on the two rates that have the Base Rate
check box selected.
Use elements to retrieve values from an element input value or to post values to an
element input value. The element input value must have a special purpose of either Primary
Input Value or Factor. For example, for an amount value such as a salary figure, create an
element with the flat amount rule to automatically create an input value with the Primary
Input Value special purpose. For a factor value, such as a bonus that you calculate as 10 per
cent of average earnings, select the factor calculation rule to create an input value with the
Factor special purpose.

the report depend on the number of payroll calculations completed for the payroll within the date
range.
Consider the following example:
1. You calculate the payroll for semimonthly payrolls. The process date of the first payroll run is
offset to the second payroll period. The following table displays the balances for each payroll
run.
2. You submit the Gross-to-Net report with a start date of January 16 and an end date of
January 31.

STEPS TO ENABLE
1. Use the Manage Fast Formulas task to create the formula using the Payroll User Interface
Configuration formula type.
2. Use the Manage User-Defined Tables task to attach the formula in the user-defined table as
follows:
. 150
a. Select the legislative data group that you want to use to manage the user-defined table and
then search for and select PAYROLL_USER_INTERFACE_CONFIGURATION.
Note: The formulas attached in the user-defined table are effective at the enterprise level.
The legislative data group isnt significant. However, to make any later edits to the table,
you must select the same legislative data group.
b. Click Edit, and then click Next.
c. On the User-Defined Table Values page, click Add.
d. Select the exact row that corresponds with the formula, and then click OK.
e. In the Value field, enter the name of your formula. You must enter the formula name
exactly as it was created in the Manage Fast Formulas page.
. 151
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Each payment method preference that you customize must have its own formula. You cant
combine different payment method preferences into a single formula. For example, you
cant create a formula that sets the default organization payment method and also sets the
maximum number of allowed personal payment methods.
Make note of which legislative data group you select for the user-defined table. You must
select that same legislative data group later if you want to make any modifications, such as
add, update, or delete a formula value.
You can now display additional information, such as congratulatory messages and detailed earnings
information, on checks or payslips by configuring the Organization Information EFF extensible flexfield.
Using the Manage Enterprise HCM Information task, you add elements of the Information classification
to the new Global Payroll Element Information to Archive section. The run results of these elements are
archived in a new archive record, making them available to the .xml templates you use for checks and
payslips.
. 152
Example A: Display earnings by earned weekly period
For example, you want to display earnings details on payslips, such as overtime pay per week within a
semimonthly pay period. In this example, before modifying your payslip template, you create an
element using the Information element classification. You create the following input values in your
element and add them to the payroll information to archive:
Description
Start Date
End Date
Hours
Rate
Multiple
Amount
Message Title
Message Description
STEPS TO ENABLE
1. Create the information element, its element eligibility, and the input values you want displayed.
2. If you need a formula to calculate the run results, do the following:
a. On the Manage Fast Formulas page, create a formula of type Oracle Payroll to return the
values that you want to add.
b. On the Manage Elements page, edit the information element to:
II. Create a status processing rule associated with your new formula.
III. Add formula result rules to return formula results to the element's input values.
3. On the Manage Enterprise HCM Information page, in the Organization Information EFF section,
add the information element and input values.
4. Create employee element entries, unless you selected the Automatic Entry option for the
element.
5. After payroll processing, archive the results.
6. Modify the check template or payslip template, as appropriate.
. 153
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The Organization Information EFF configuration is at the enterprise level. For each LDG for
which you want to archive payroll information, you must add a separate row for the
information element.
This feature has no conflicts or dependencies with any of the existing earnings and
deductions whose results are archived. No existing archives or reports are affected by this
feature.
The new rolling 12-month balance dimensions enable you to retrieve balance information for a 12-

STEPS TO ENABLE
Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada offers a comprehensive process to generate the
RL-1 year-end slip.
The RL-1 slip is a provincial year-end form for reporting an employees employment income, statutory
deductions and other information required by Revenu Quebec. At the end of every tax year you must
submit RL-1 slip information to Revenu Quebec. You must also provide the slip to your employees for
tax filing purposes.
End-of-year processing for the RL-1 includes the following activities:
1. Setting up Quebec Provincial Tax registration information for each tax reporting unit (TRU) that
has employees in Quebec.
2. Setting up TRU transmitter information for Quebec reporting.
3. Setting up balance feeds for the boxes and other information codes.
4. Using the Archive End-of-Year Payroll Results process from the Regulatory and Tax Reporting
work area to generate and view the results of the end-of-year archive for RL-1 information.

END-OF-YEAR REPORTING (T4A ONLY)
Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada offers a comprehensive process to generate the
T4A year-end slip.
The T4A slip is the Statement of Pension, Retirement, Annuity, and Other Income used to report these
types of incomes to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). You must submit the T4A slip to the CRA at the
end of every tax year. You must also provide the slips to your employees for tax filing purposes.
End-of-year processing for the T4A slip includes the following activities:
Payments reported on the T4A are elements with a secondary classification reporting type of T4A/RL1
and T4A/RL2.
Use the Manage Legal Reporting Unit HCM Information task in the Setup and Maintenance work area to
set up the transmitter information for reporting of T4A data.
. 203
Additionally, you must configure balance feeds to the T4A boxes and other information codes before
processing end-of-year reporting. Oracle pre-configures the income tax deducted box on the T4A, but
you must manually configure any additional feeds.
Use the Manage Balance Definitions task from the Payroll Calculations work area to configure additional
feeds.

INVOLUNTARY DEDUCTIONS: PROTECTED PAY PERCENTAGE
Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides a new Protected Pay Rule to specify
how the employees protected pay is determined. A new rule is available to configure a percentage, in
addition to an amount. This Protected Pay Percentage rule is defined as a new value definition.
You can define a Protected Pay Percentage for the deduction by selecting the value within the Edit
Calculation Values tab on the involuntary deduction card for the employee. The rate is entered as a
percent (for example, .50 for 50%). By defining this value, the formula creates a Percent of Protected
Pay for the deduction, as follows:
If the Disposable Income Calculation Rule is defined as Percentage of Gross Pay, the
protected pay is a percentage of the employees gross wages.
If the Disposable Income Calculation Rule is defined as Percentage of Net Pay, the protected
pay is a percentage of the employees net pay.
If the Disposable Income Calculation Rule is defined as Percentage of Net Pay Less Specific
Deductions, the protected pay is a percentage of the employees net pay less specific
deductions.
If multiple Involuntary Deduction components exist, each with a differing Protected Pay Percentage
entered, the formula uses the highest percent defined.
You can select the rule from the list of values in the Edit Calculation Values within the Involuntary
Deductions Calculation Card for the employee as displayed below.

The automatic enrolment assesses and enrolls employees, or re-enrolls them when a re-enrolment date
is present.
The recent changes announced for the Pensions Automatic Enrolment for the tax year 2015-16 by The
Pensions Regulator (TPR) are included.
Legislative Changes for Tax Year 2015-16 - Changes incorporated are the option to exclude
or include employees for enrolment or re-enrolment with certain conditions such as:
o Cyclical Re-enrolment process that should be run every time the re-enrolment date is

o Additional data capture to ensure re-enrolment process can take place.
o Assessment for Automatic re-enrolment for eligible employees.
o Employee Notification letters to be generated for employees assessed for re-
enrolment.
Additional Data Capture at PSU or TRU Level - Additional information is required for the
PAE component at organization-level for PAYE Reference or TRU. Where present, the TRU
data takes precedence over the PSU data. For example, if the Automatic Re-enrolment Date
is present at TRU, this takes precedence over the PSU Automatic Re-enrolment Date.

HCM DATA LOADER SUPPORT FOR CALCULATION CARDS
You can now use HCM Data Loader to create or update calculation cards for the UK localization. The
HCM Data Loader currently supports the following cards for upload:
Statutory Deductions
Pension Automatic Enrolment
Benefits and Pensions
Court Orders and Student Loans
All business objects related to the calculation card, such as calculation component, component details,
and associations are available through HDL Data Loader. You can carry out actions such as Insert, Delete
or Update on these objects.
User keys are currently not supported to identify business objects; instead it uses the combination of
SourceSystemOwner and SourceSystemID. Reports can be setup in Business Intelligence (BI) Publisher to
retrieve the required ID.
Using this information, you can prepare the data for loading. The file must be in data file format (.dat),
with a METADATA line declaring what objects are being created or uploaded or deleted in the file,
followed by one MERGE line for each record you wish to create or update.
For example, to update P45 information on employees PAYE component:
. 272
Example of a Subset of Information on the P45.
You can then upload the file in the Data Exchange Work Area, Import and Load data.
If the upload is unsuccessful, you can view the list of error messages using the Message icon.
To verify that the data has been updated, use the Manage Calculation Card task in the Payroll
Calculation Work Area:
. 273
NOTE: The same validations happen while creating the data using HCM data loader than when created
manually using the Manage Calculation Card task. However a few of the validations only happen during
manual entry. It is recommended to run the Payroll Validation report or Diagnostic report to validate
loaded data.
STEPS TO ENABLE
User keys are not currently supported. Either Source System id, GUID or Surrogate Id can be used to
identify records.
It is possible to combine all business objects into a single file. The HCM Data Loader works out the order
in which objects must be created. For example, if you are creating a new statutory deductions card, you
can include all of the following business objects into a single .dat file:
Calculation card
Aggregation component
PAYE component
NI component
PAYE component details
. 274
New Starter Declaration component details
Card association
PAYE component association
NI component association
EXCEPTIONS
Following are the exceptions while using the HCM Data Loader:
Only one PAYE component per card can be created within one .dat file. If you need to create
multiple PAYE components, create them using multiple .dat file.
When creating a Pension Automatic Enrolment calculation card, if you want to upload
information about the Qualifying Pension Scheme (QPS), ensure that the Benefits and
Pensions card already exists.
When deleting cards, all business objects can be provided in a single file except for
association details; if you need to delete a card as well as its association details, it must be a
two-steps process.
The processes for P9/P6 and NVREQ both process incoming files from HMRC and in order to select the
file received. To enable you to select the file you want to upload at the time of submitting the process
flow, a new task has been added to the processes called Upload File.

following tax year. Any changes you wish to submit to HMRC for your employees that relate to a
previous tax year, should be done via the Earlier Year Updates (EYU) process.
Therefore each year a new version of EYU is provided. The changes that were applicable to FPS for the
previous tax year are all applied to the EYU for tax year ending 5th April 2016.
A new EYU process has been delivered to allow you to submit changes to HMRC for tax year ending 5th
April 2016 and the changes implemented are summarized here:
A New attribute on the EDI & Audit reports has been delivered:
o Flexibly Accessing Pension Rights which you must set manually for 2015-16 for the
employee as the automatic process is not available for EPS yet.
STEPS TO ENABLE
New predefined elements that enable you to stop the regular PAYE and National Insurance calculations
during the payroll run are now available. These elements can be used on their own, or in conjunction
with the existing NI and PAYE adjustment elements.
The new predefined override elements are as follows:
NI Override
o No input values
. 294
PAYE Override
o No input values
In order to use the PAYE and NI Override elements, you need to create an element entry for the specific
assignment for the payroll period.
. 295
The PAYE Override element is similar to the NI Override element and the payroll process will stop the
PAYE calculations, if it has been specified for an assignment. The values entered in the PAYE adjustment
element are used as the deduction amounts for the assignment for that period.
When the NI Override and PAYE Override elements are attached to an assignment, only the regular
calculations of NI and PAYE are stopped for the payroll relationship to which the assignment belongs.
For other assignments with different NI categories, the regular calculations are processed even if they
belong to the same payroll relationship.
Both the override elements are non-recurring. You must attach them each time you require the
calculations to be overridden by the adjustment values entered for the assignment.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Once the patch is applied, in order to use these new predefined elements, you must create an eligibility
record for each element:

Act 32 of the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development requires a PSD code
and school district for both an employees residence and work locations in order to determine the
proper local income taxation. To determine these codes, Oracle Fusion HCM (US) now checks the
residency certificate of the employees withholding certificate first instead of the address. If there is no
resident data entered the residency certificate, then it uses the employees address, including the tax
district, to determine them. If the data is missing from both the employees residency certificate and
address, then it raises an error during payroll calculation.
STEPS TO ENABLE
The PSD code entered on the location is not used in the employee tax calculations. Any changes to the
work PSD code must be done on the employees residency certificate. Use the Manage Calculation Cards
task in the Payroll Calculation work area to update the employees residency certificate information.

Absence Management, Global Payroll, and Oracle Fusion Project Costing ensures accurate and
consistent data for payroll processing and costing as well as project management and billing.
Help workers manage their time with a complete view of their work schedule and their team members
work schedules. This view enables workers to responsibly plan leaves and actively negotiate shift trades
to accommodate personal appointments or desired time off.
Workers can use display options to filter the time that they see, such as personal and employment
schedules and absences. The Time Card display option determines whether the View and Submit Time
Card button appears on the Time page.

To use any scheduling features, you must configure scheduler profile values and scheduler assignments.
Profile values include scheduling group, default resources required, display labels and colors for custom
shifts, and staffing differences for over, under, and normal staffing levels. Associate a color with each
level to visually distinguish the levels on Planned Schedule Summary sections. Use the Manage
Scheduler Profiles task in the Time Management work area to make profile value and assignment
configurations.
. 339
Configure Values for the Scheduler Profile
Identify one or more schedulers to act on the managers behalf. All schedulers must have the Time and
Labor Manager role to access the scheduling features. You can associate a scheduler with more than
one scheduler profile to enable the scheduler to manage multiple scheduling groups.
. 340
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
To schedule a shift where the worker has an approved absence, you must first delete the absence using
the Manage Absence Records task in the Person Management work area.

In addition to the time attributes delivered by Global Payroll, Project Costing, and Absence
Management, you can now create your own custom time attributes that are defined in the workforce
management data dictionary and stored in the repository. You can optionally associate dependent
attributes with your independent custom attributes.
You can associate these time attributes with time card fields and use them on worker time cards. You
can also use these custom time attributes in time calculation rules, time categories, and time card
approval rules.
Using custom time attributes, you can capture additional information on worker time cards to meet
company-specific needs, such as integration with third-party project management tools or third-party
payroll applications. You cannot use custom attributes to transfer time to Global Payroll, Project
Costing, or Absence Management.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Create time attributes using the following tasks in the Define Time and Labor task list in the Setup and
Maintenance work area.
. 341
Setup Tasks to Create and Use Custom Time Attributes
Manage Time and Labor Value Sets: Create the value sets to be used by time reporters
during time entry and by administrators for setup tasks such as creating time categories and
rules.
Manage Custom Time Attributes: Create the independent time attribute and add any
associated dependent time attributes. Specify the data source value sets to be displayed at
the top of the data source list when configuring the time card fields that use the attributes.
Also specify the data type of the attribute, which must match the data type of the
associated value set.
Manage Time Card Fields: Associate the custom attribute and any dependent attributes
with a time card field and its dependent fields. Configure the data sources and filters for
time entry.
Manage Time Layout Sets: Add the time card fields that contain custom attributes to layout
sets that you associate with time entry profiles.
Manage Time Categories: Add custom time attributes to time categories to enable time to
be summarized by that category. You cannot add attributes with data type of number, date,
or percentage to a category.
Define Time Rules: Create time rules using values associated with custom time attributes to
configure the rules inputs and outputs.
Create Custom Time Attribute Page Showing One Associated Dependent Time Attribute
. 342
After you create and save the custom attribute and related dependent attributes, you can edit only the
description text and the data sources. You can add dependent time attributes, but cannot delete
existing dependent attributes.
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about custom time attributes, go to Applications Help for the following topic:
Capture location information during time entry, to override the US workers work location. You can now
use Payroll Time Types with US Area fields for State, County, and City as time card entries on the
configurable time card. The available entries have delivered, filtered choice lists and transfer for use by
payroll upon final approval.
You can capture State location only, or State, County, and City. If you use all three locations, you set
them up to filter the County value list to only counties valid in the selected state, and filter the Cities list
to only cities valid in the selected state and county.
STEPS TO ENABLE
1. Ensure that elements are created for the US legislative data group with the necessary location
input values in Oracle Fusion Global Payroll.
2. Run the Generate Data Dictionary attributes process from the Define Time and Labor task list in
the Setup and Maintenance work area.
3. Add the relevant location attributes as dependent time card fields on the related independent
time card field, using the Manage Time Card Fields task.
4. Add the data sources and configure the data source filters to filter the county and city list
values.
5. Add the dependent location fields to the appropriate layouts in the layout sets.
6. Add the layout sets to the appropriate time entry profiles.
The following table illustrates how to set up the attribute dependencies to filter the data source for
each of the location dependent fields.
. 343
Filter Bind Variable Input Available Values for Dependent Field
Dependent
Variable Attribute
Field
County pCodeLevel1 State All counties in the selected State
City (step 1) pCodeLevel1 State
City (step 2) pCodeLevel2 County All cities in the selected County in the
selected State
The context availability value that you select when creating the dependent field determines
your options for placing the field on the matrix or details dialog boxes in time card layouts:
o Available globally, for all independent time attribute values: Dependent time card
field is configurable in the Time Card Matrix and details dialog boxes even if the
independent attribute is not displayed in the Time Card Matrix.
o Available only for specific independent time attribute values: Dependent time card
field is configurable only in the details dialog boxes and only if the independent time
attributes is available in the Time Card Matrix.
Add the location dependent time card fields to the layouts in the proper sequence to ensure
that time reporters enter the attribute filter values in proper succession: State, County, and
then City.

TRANSACTIONAL BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE
Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) is a real time, self-service reporting solution offered to
all Oracle Fusion application users to create ad hoc reports and analyze them for daily decision-making.
OTBI provides human resources managers and specialists, business executives, and line managers the
critical workforce information to analyze workforce costs, staffing, compensation, performance
management, talent management, succession planning, and worker benefits.
Access to person personally identifiable information (PII) and other sensitive information is now
restricted to the Human Resource Analyst role only. Line Managers no longer have access to
information in the following folders in the Person subject area:
STEPS TO ENABLE
Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence has been enhanced to report on the matrix manager
hierarchy. Worker assignments in Oracle Fusion can have other managers, such as one or more project
managers, in addition to their line manager. However, there can be only one line manager for a worker.
The newly added Matrix Manager dimension allows reporting on various manager hierarchies.
STEPS TO ENABLE
. 346
UNSECURED ASSIGNMENT MANAGER HIERARCHY
A new dimension has been added to all subject areas except Talent Review Meeting Real Time that
represents the line manager hierarchy. This dimension doesn't impose the logged in user security that is
present in the existing Assignment Manager. In the existing Assignment Manager dimension, the first
level of manager name is initialized to the logged-in user, however, in the unsecured dimension, all the
managers within the security profile of the logged-in user are displayed. This enhancement allows the
HR Analyst to create and test the report using the unsecured hierarchy and then replace it with the
secured hierarchy before delivering the report to the line managers.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Increase efficiency by reporting on the new checklist tasks for workers and other task performers. You
can report on both automated and manually allocated tasks with this new subject area.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Two new subject areas are available for Time and Labor. These subject areas enable you to report on
timecards that are created, submitted, and approved. You can also report on historical data related to
timecards. The new subject areas are:
STEPS TO ENABLE
You can now report on compensation metrics using the currency preferred by the user. The

REPORTING ESTABLISHMENT
A reporting establishment is an organization that is used for statutory reporting other than tax and
social insurance reporting. A reporting establishment has a parent-child relationship with a legal
employer, with the legal employer being the parent organization. A legal employer can be the parent of
multiple reporting establishments. In some countries, such as France, a reporting establishment can also
be a tax reporting unit.
Customers want to report often on the Reporting Establishment using the OTBI subject areas. In order
to enable this request, Reporting Establishment has been added to all the subject areas that have the
Department or Organization dimension.
The Reporting Establishment dimension contains the following attributes:
o Location Identifier
o Reporting Establishment Identifier
o Reporting Establishment Name
o Effective Start Date
o Effective End Date
o Internal Address Line
o City
o Postal Code
o Location Name
. 351
o Location Code

STEPS TO ENABLE
Customers want to report on countries based on their preferences. For example, they would not want
to display a few countries that have been marked as Obsolete in the reports. In other words, they would
want to display only those countries that have been marked as Enabled. Some customers would want
to display either of the cases i.e. both enabled and obsolete countries.
To meet this requirement, two new flags have been added to the Worker Legislation folder:
Enabled Flag
Obsolete Flag
You can add filters on these flags to display or not display the respective countries. For example, a
report prompt can have the logical query as below to fetch the list of values:
SELECT "Location"."Country" FROM "Workforce Management - Worker Assignment
Real Time" WHERE ("Worker Legislation"."Obsolete Flag") = 'N'
STEPS TO ENABLE
You can view your KPI watchlist as well as drill into the reports that make up a specific KPI. You can tag
reports as favorite reports and also view your most recent reports.
You can also browse your BI Catalog in the Fusion HCM Cloud directly from your mobile device.
