HCM COMMON FEATURES


The following HCM common features include enhancements for Release 10:

HCM Data Loader


Global Human Resources
Payroll Common Features
Oracle Tap (Mobile)

HCM DATA LOADER


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.
IMPORT LOCAL FILE
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.

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
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

FLEXIBLE PIPE-DELIMITED FILE FORMAT
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
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about HCM Data Loader file formats, go to My Oracle Support for the following
guide:

HCM Data Loader Users Guide, (Doc ID: 1664133.1)


Return to Release Feature Summary

SECURE DATA TRANSFER


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

20

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
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
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

Return to Release Feature Summary

AUTOMATED OR USER-MANAGED PROCESSING


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.

FLEXIBLE KEY SUPPORT


HCM Data Loader supports the following four key types:

Oracle Fusion GUID (Globally Unique Identifier)


Oracle Fusion surrogate ID
Source Key ID
User key

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.

Return to Release Feature Summary

GLOBAL HUMAN 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.
COUNTRY-LEVEL ADDRESS RULE
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.
The following screen shows the updated Manage Features by Country or Territory page.

24

Manage Features by Country or Territory Page

STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS

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.
ENHANCED ELEMENT TEMPLATE FOR ABSENCES
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:

Calculate absence liability


Enable partial payment of a balance
Enable balance payments when enrollment ends

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.

Absences Element Template Questions

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
.

26

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
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
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:

Return to Release Feature Summary

ENHANCED ELEMENT TEMPLATE FOR TIME CARDS


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.

27

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.

STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

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.
SIMPLIFIED ROLE HIERARCHY
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 although, 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.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
For existing customers who upgrade to Release 10, you can choose to move your users to the simplified
hierarchy at your own discretion. Before beginning the move to the simplified hierarchy, please be sure
to review the white papers on My Oracle Support to understand what is involved and how it will work.

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.
COPY ROLE AND INHERITED HIERARCHY
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.

Copy Options for a Role Selected

STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

40

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.
Return to Release Feature Summary
ANALYZE ROLES BY ROLE CATEGORY
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 compares 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.

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.

would then import the response as a trusted certificate.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
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.

define the daily working hours for a worker. The availability calculation uses this work week schedule to
calculate the workers availability by day.

Assignment Details Page Showing the Assignment Hours Details Button after the Working Hours Field

49

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.

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.
RATE START DATE RULE
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.

The Rate Start Date field in 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.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

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.
WORKFORCE COMPENSATION SUPPORTS MATRIX STRUCTURES
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.

Configure Up to Three Hierarchies

61

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.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Use the Configure Hierarchies task when you set up your workforce compensation plan.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Examples are:

Create a country-based primary hierarchy that enables country leaders to manage the
budget, and a secondary hierarchy that allows line managers to manage the compensation
for their organization.
Give a dotted line manager access to a workers compensation if the worker completed a
project for the manager.

GLOBAL PAYROLL
Oracle Fusion Global Payroll is a high-performance, graphical, rules-based payroll management
application. Its designed to keep pace with the changing needs of your enterprise and workforce in
order to reduce setup costs, administration, and processing time. Global Payroll operates consistently in
every country supported by Oracle. It uses a highly scalable processing engine that takes advantage of
the features of the Oracle database for parallel processing, resulting in optimal performance. In
countries with payroll extensions delivered and supported by Oracle, the application delivers the
calculations, tax reporting, and regulatory rules required to accurately process payroll and remain in
compliance.
SIMPLIFIED QUICKPAY FLOW
You can more easily submit a QuickPay process by selecting the Calculate QuickPay task from the task
pane or from the Actions menu on the Manage Element Entries page in the Payroll Calculation work
area. Use this task to process a correction or payment outside the usual payroll run, for example to
process a new hire payment when the information was received too late for the last payroll period. The
QuickPay process automatically enters information for the person based on the effective date you
specified in the payroll search. For example, the process automatically specifies the persons payroll, the
period name, and a default naming convention for the payroll flow name.

ENHANCED SUPPORT FOR RATE DEFINITIONS


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.

107

Use elements to retrieve values from an element input value or 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, you would select the Primary Input Value special purpose for
an amount value, such as a salary figure. For a factor value, such as a bonus that you
calculate as 10 per cent of average earnings, you select the Factor special purpose.

payroll period.
If you intend to extract data once per payroll period, it is recommended to first run the Calculate Gross
Earnings process. However, if you plan to extract data more frequently, such as daily or in the middle of
a payroll period, you can run the extract process at any time, but you should not run the Calculate Gross

LOAD GEOGRAPHIES FOR CANADA
You can now use the Load Geographies for Canada task to update geography-related information on
Canadian provinces, cities, and postal codes. Vertex publishes a geocodes file that reflects changes to
the geography information. This data is required for address validations and payroll calculations.

Running the Load Geographies Process

Once the file is installed, you must run this process to retrieve information from the file and load it into
the Oracle database tables. The geographies are loaded into the Trading Community Architecture (TCA)
database tables, which provide a centralized and consistent way to manage geographies. Once records
are loaded in the TCA tables, you can use the Manage Geographies interface to easily view and update
the data.
Some Canadian provinces and cities have both Canadian French and American English names. When the
names are different, both Canadian French and American English records are automatically loaded.
However if the name is the same, only one record is created.

PA ACT 32 CALCULATION ENHANCEMENTS
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
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The PSD code entered on the location is not used in the employee tax calculations. Any changes to the

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.
