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:
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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
