Introduction
This paper identifies and describes HR setup tasks for Oracle Fusion Human Resources Management System for
Saudi Arabia.
The organizational structures that need to be defined to manage HR processes for Saudi.
The data that needs to be defined to hire and maintain a Saudi worker.
The migration process from a legacy system, by identifying the Saudi-specific fields that need to be populated by
such migration.
This documentation can also be beneficial to end users who run application processes after implementation.
Note: This document should not be considered a comprehensive guide for HR implementations. The
focus of this document is Saudi-specific processes and information. For information about generic tasks,
the implementation team should refer to documentation listed in the following section.
Document Updates
This document is based on the most current application release as of the documents publication date. Content is
updated as needed only to reflect major changes to existing features or when significant new features are added to
the Saudi localization. For this reason, it is possible that some minor UI differences may exist between the version
being implemented and the version described in this document.
Organization Structures
Introduction
Before a customer can hire a Saudi worker or run any country-specific process, the implementation
team must set up the organization structures required for the management of HR processes. You can
perform all setup tasks using the Functional Setup Manager (FSM).
The following sections describe how to create an implementation project and define enterprise
structures and related objects required for Saudi implementations. These structures, which typically
contain country-specific information, must be defined before you can create application users.
Note: For the complete set of setup tasks required for a full implementation, please refer to
the documents listed under Other Information Sources.
Enterprise
The Enterprise classification represents the top structure in the organization that supports partitioning
requirements for Oracle Fusion applications. A person exists within the context of an enterprise. If a
person is associated with two enterprises, the person has two person records.
Since there is no concept of legislation at the enterprise level, no Saudi-specific attributes are stored at
this level; these attributes must be stored at the level of other structures such as legal entity.
This document does not describe enterprise setup since this structure is defined at a higher level than
HR and is used across product lines.
Sign in to the Oracle Fusion application using a role that has the profile of a super-user and
privileges to create all organizational structures:
2.
3.
4.
On the Create Implementation Project page, enter the required information and click Next:
5.
Select Workforce Deployment as the offering, since this parent project contains all the tasks
needed to set up HCM organizational structures:
6.
Verifying Geographies
Geography information is used in Oracle Fusion applications for address entry and geography-based
business processes, such as territory management and shipping. Before defining enterprise structures,
the implementation team must verify predefined geographies and load any additionally required local
geographies.
Follow these steps to verify predefined geographies:
1.
2.
On the Manage Geographies page, select SA and click Search to view the predefined geography
setup and content for Saudi Arabia:
3.
Click the green checkmark for each type of geography data you want to verify:
Structure Defined:
Hierarchy Defined:
4.
Validation Defined:
Verify the information on each page and make any necessary changes, then click Save and Close.
Implementation teams can create new geographies by importing data through interface tables. You can
load data into the interface tables using the Oracle Fusion file-based data import process or the tool of
your choice.
Legal Jurisdictions
All legal entities must be registered against a jurisdiction that is governed by a legal authority. A legal
jurisdiction is a combination of the legislative category (such as labour law, transaction tax law, or
income tax law) and the physical territory (such as a group of countries, a country, a state, or a county)
to which legal rules are grounded. A tax jurisdiction is a geographic area where a tax is levied by a
specific tax authority. Jurisdictions must be set up before creating registrations, because a jurisdiction is
required in the registration process. A jurisdiction must also have a start date and end date to show
when the jurisdiction is effective and when you can register against it. For Saudi, there is a predefined
jurisdiction called Saudi Arabia Social Insurance.
1.
2.
On the Manage Legal Jurisdictions page, search for Saudi Arabia Social Insurance.
3.
Note: An identifying jurisdiction is the one that is automatically associated with all legal entities
created for the territory. It represents the jurisdiction that a company has to register with when
first created. Registration information for the identifying jurisdiction is mandatory when creating a
Legal Employer. An identifying jurisdiction needs to be defined in the implementation phase.
You can create additional jurisdictions as needed using the Manage Legal Jurisdictions task.
Legal Addresses
A legal address is the address of record for an entity. For example, the legal address of a legal authority
is used in communications with that authority. No legal addresses are predefined for the Saudi. You
must create legal addresses for all organizational units of the enterprise.
To define legal addresses:
1.
2.
3.
On the Location Create page, enter the address information and click OK:
Legal Authorities
Legal authorities are the government entities with which an enterprise interacts, for example to send
legal reports. No legal authorities are predefined for Saudi. You must create a legal authority for each
government entity, such as a General Office for Social Insurance (GOSI) office, that has a relationship
with the enterprise. Later, you will register each legal entity you create unit with a legal authority.
10
2.
3.
4.
Select the Tax Authority Type based on the type of interaction. Typically, this is set to
Collecting and Reporting.
Add one or more legislative categories, such as the predefined Social Insurance category.
This establishes a link between the legal authority and all jurisdictions associated with the
selected legislative category.
Payroll statutory unit (PSU), where one LDG is required per PSU.
Country, where one LDG is required per legislation with one or more PSUs.
Between country and PSU, where a more complex setup is required. For example, partitioning at this
level is appropriate when multiple LDGs are required per legislation with one or more PSUs.
11
An LDG must be defined in an HR-only implementation if the customer plans to export employeelevel information, such as payment methods or salary, to a third-party payroll system.
If an LDG is associated with a PSU, then whenever a user creates payroll data, the LDG can be
derived from the payroll relationship for the transaction via the PSU association.
To define an LDG:
1.
Select Manage Legislative Data Groups in the implementation project task list:
2.
3.
On the Create Legislative Data Group page, provide the required information and click Submit:
12
Legal Entities
A legal entity is an entity unequivocally identified and given rights and responsibilities under
Commercial Law, through registration with the territorys appropriate authority. Legal entities have the
responsibility to account for themselves (balance sheet, income statement, specified reports) to
company regulators, taxation authorities, and owners according to rules specified in the relevant
legislation.
Legal Employers and Payroll Statutory Units (PSUs): Overview
A payroll statutory unit (PSU) is a legal entity that is responsible for paying workers, including the
payment of payroll tax and social insurance. A PSU can pay and report on payroll tax and social
insurance on behalf of one or many legal entities, depending on the structure of your enterprise.
PSUs provide a way to group legal employers so that certain statutory calculations, such as court orders
and some taxes, can be performed at a higher level. A legal employer can belong to only one PSU, and
the PSU represents the highest level of aggregation for a person. No balances are aggregated across
PSUs.
When defining a legal entity, you must consider the context in which it is to be used:
You can define a legal entity that is both a legal employer and a PSU.
If multiple legal employers need to be grouped together for tax reporting purposes, you can associate
them all with a single PSU. If legal employers do not report together, they must not share a PSU.
No legal entities are predefined for Saudi. You must create all legal entities that apply to the enterprise
you are setting up.
Legal Reporting Units and Tax Reporting Units: Overview
A legal reporting unit (LRU) is the lowest level component of a legal structure that requires
registrations. It is used to group workers for the purpose of tax and social insurance reporting or to
represent a part of your enterprise with a specific statutory or tax reporting obligation.
If LRUs are used in Oracle Fusion HRMS Payroll for tax reporting purposes, then they are considered
tax reporting units (TRUs). In the Legal Entity Configurator, when you create an LRU that belongs to
a PSU, the application automatically creates a TRU in HCM and associates it with the parent PSU.
When you create an LRU that belongs to a legal employer (that is not also a PSU), you must select a
parent PSU. In this way, TRUs are indirectly associated with a legal employer by association with a
PSU.
13
In HRMS Saudi the TRU get automatically created when the users create a PSU. The is no requirement
to create TRUs as there is no statutory requirement to report at this level.
Organization Structure Models Supported by Saudi Localization
The sections that follow describe how to define a set of organizational units that comprise the
organization structure required to manage HR processes for Saudi. Each enterprise can combine these
organizational units in a different way in order to set up the organizational model that best fits their
business needs. Before you begin creating organizational units, it is helpful to understand the
organization structure models supported by the Saudi localization.
The Saudi Localization supports one to one configuration between the Enterprise and PSU with one
legal employer.
Creating Legal Entities

3.
4.
If a legal entity is not designated as a payroll statutory unit, you must select an existing payroll
statutory unit to which it belongs.
You must have previously defined the legal address for the legal entity.
The type of registration information required is based on the Registration Code Assignment
information you defined when you created the selected jurisdiction. In this case, GOSI
Number and Legal Entity Registration Number are required.
Set the scope for this task by selecting Define Legal Entities for Human Capital Management
in the implementation project task list:
2.

employment models. Refer to the section on employment models in chapter Define Enterprise
Structures for Human Capital Management of Oracle Fusion Applications Workforce
Development Implementation Guide
(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28271_01/fusionapps.1111/e20380/toc.htm).
Full contract functionality is available only if you select the 2-Tier Single Contract - Single
Assignment Model or a 3-tier employment model.
4.
If the legal entity is also a PSU, complete the fields on the Payroll Statutory Details and Saudi
Arabia Payroll Statutory Unit Information tabs.

Set the scope for this task by selecting the parent legal entity and then the legal reporting unit, as
described in previous tasks.
2.
Select Manage Legal Reporting Unit HCM Information in the implementation project task
list:
3.
21
Business Units
Oracle Fusion HRMS uses the business unit classification to group sets of data that are enabled with
the Set ID functionality. Thus, when you associate a business unit with a default set, this default set is
inherited by every entity connected to the business unit.
No Saudi-specific data are required or captured at this level. However, it is mandatory to assign a
business unit to a worker in the new hire process, so business units must be created for the enterprise.
To create a business unit:
1.
Select Define Business Units for Human Capital Management in the implementation project
task list:
2.
Click Create.
3.
Note: You must have previously created the location and default set. (Default sets are created
using the Manage Reference Data Sets task. For more information about business units and default
sets, refer to the Oracle Fusion Workforce Deployment Implementation Guide:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28271_01/fusionapps.1111/e20379/toc.htm).
4.
22
Workforce Structures
Workforce structure setup should be performed once organization structure setup is complete.
Workforce structures are used to:
Define additional partitioning of the workers within the organization, including divisions,
departments, and reporting establishments.
Assign roles to workers within the organization, including grades, jobs, and positions.
Set up actions and reasons that apply to the work relationship cycle of workers.
No workforce structures are predefined for Saudi. The implementation team is responsible for defining
all the workforce structures that apply to the enterprise for which the setup is being done. Note that
some workforce structures may not apply to every enterprise.
Locations
The first workforce structures to define are the locations where business is conducted or which are of
interest to the business. Locations can store information about the physical location of a workforce
structure and can be assigned to workers in order to define their physical work location.
To create or manage locations:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
On the Create Location page, provide the required information and click Submit:
23
Divisions
A division is a high-level organization that supports functionality for roll-up reporting. Division exists
above a legal entity, but below an enterprise. As there is no concept of legislation at the division level,
no Saudi-specific attributes are stored here.
To create divisions:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
24
Note: In the sample screen above, the division is associated with the previously created location. If
you are setting up an HR-only implementation, it is not mandatory to create divisions for Saudi.
4.
Click Next to provide additional division details, and then review and submit.
Departments
A department is a division of a business enterprise dealing with a particular area or activity. You can
assign workers to departments.
No data is required or captured at this level for Saudi but implementation teams can create a
department structure for an enterprise in the organizational structure setup phase of the project.
25
To create departments:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
Note: In the sample screen above, a location has been selected. Every time this department is
connected to another entity, such as a worker, this location will also be connected to that entity by
default.
4.
Click Next to provide additional department details, and then review and submit.
26
Reporting Establishments
A reporting establishment represents an organizational unit used for statutory reporting, other than tax
or social insurance reporting. You can create a new reporting establishment from scratch or you can
select an existing TRU and define it as a reporting establishment. (From Release7 you will no longer be
able to create a reporting establishment from a previously created TRU)
Reporting establishments are supported but not required in a Saudi implementation.
To create reporting establishments:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
On the Create Reporting Establishment page, select Create New to create a new reporting
establishment or choose Select an existing organization to define as a Reporting
Establishment if the reporting establishment is an existing TRU (From Release7 onwards, you
are no longer able to create a reporting establishment from a previously created TRU).
If you choose to select an existing organization, the Search: Organization section is displayed:
27
Select Tax Reporting Unit in the Classification field and click Search. Then click Select
Organization for the TRU you want to work with.
4.
5.
Click Next to provide additional details, and then review and submit.

Select Manage Employment Office Lookups for Saudi Arabia from the implementation
project task list
2.
Click New:
3.
Create a lookup code for each Employment Office you wish to create:
29
Roles in Organization
A set of workforce structures, including grades, jobs, and positions, must be defined during
implementation. These structures are used to assign a role to each worker in the organization.
Grades
A grade defines the relative rank, level, or status of a worker. It is one of the key building blocks used
for managing compensation.
To create grades:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
Note: In the sample screen above, this grade is associated with the business unit created earlier.
4.
30
5.
Grade rates can be used to define pay values for grades in a legislative data group (country). You
can add a rate that was previously defined or create a new rate:
31
Jobs
A job defines a set of roles or duties that are linked to a worker. Each enterprise should create the job
codes that are suited for its organization.
To create jobs:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
Note: In the sample screen above, the selected Job Set is the same as the default set selected for
the business unit. Thus, this job cannot be assigned to workers who belong to a business unit that
is connected to a different job set.
4.
32
Note: No Saudi-specific data is required or captured in the Job Details page or other setup pages
for jobs.
Positions
A position is a specific instance of a job in a department or business unit. The use of jobs or jobs and
positions varies by industry and customer requirements.
To create positions:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
33
Note: In the sample screen above, the position is associated with the previously created business
unit. The business unit you select here determines which jobs, departments, and location values
can be selected on subsequent screens.
4.
Note: On this page, you can specify optional attributes, such as Full-Time or Part-Time, Regular
or Temporary, Entry Grade and Entry Step. You can also add previously defined grades that are
valid for this position. No Saudi-specific data is required or captured in the Position Details page
or other setup pages for positions.
34
Actions Reasons
Action reasons are useful primarily for analysis and reporting purposes. They provide information
about when or why a specific action, such as termination of a worker, can be taken. They can also be
used to trigger a process based on the value of the action reason. For example, a specific termination
reason might trigger the payment of an indemnity. Action reasons are often used in report fields or
selection criteria.
Several action reasons are predefined in the system. Although action reasons are not workforce
structures, the implementation team may want to create additional ones to suit the business needs of
the enterprise.
To view and manage action reasons:
1.
35
2.
On the Manage Actions page, you can search for existing actions and view associated action
reasons. You can also create new actions and action reasons:
The screen below shows the action reasons for the termination action:
3.
To create a new action reason for an action, click Create in the Actions Reasons section and
complete the required fields:
The new reason code will be available for selection when a user performs the specified action.
36
When you select Workforce Structures in the Navigator, the following page is displayed:

enter contract for employee if gratuity needs to be processed in payroll.
Presession (CTR_INFORMATION3)
43
Hiring a Worker
Once the organizational and workforce structures have been defined by the implementation team, the
user is ready to manage workers data in the application. To perform tasks related to person and
employee management, you would typically sign in to the application using a role connected to a user,
such a Human Resource Specialist, rather than to a member of the implementation team:
The new hire process is the first task in the workforce lifecycle.
To hire an employee:
1.
44
2.
3.
Contingent Worker
Non Worker
Pending Worker
The Hire Reason field displays a list of valid action reasons defined for the hire action.
The Legal Employer field displays a list of all legal employers for Saudi.
The name format is determined by the predefined name formats for Saudi.
National Identifiers are validated according to the predefined National Identifier SA rules.

termination action, as described earlier in this guide.
Availability of Functionality Based on Product License
The availability of certain features such as deduction cards and element templates depends on the type
of license you have.
HR-Only: As an HR-only customer, you get access to the basic version of the element templates.
These templates create the element and you need to create the input values, formulas, balances to meet
your business requirements.
Payroll Interface: As a payroll interface customer, you get access to a number of payroll features not
available to an HR-only customer. This includes access to the full earnings element that creates the
element, input values, formulas, balances. These earnings elements can be processed through the
53
calculation to Gross process which is also available to Payroll Interface customers. Any other type of
element, such as deductions, is created using the basic version of the element templates and you need
to create the input values, formulas, balances.
54
Deduction Cards
Consolidation Groups
Payroll Definitions
55
Deduction Cards
A deduction card captures values required for calculating and processing payroll deductions. To
support the Payroll Interface, you must create a deduction card for each person for whom payroll
deductions will be processed.
For payroll interface user, the deductions cards can be used to capture a set of data that they want to
record in the HR system and then pass over to the third party payroll. Data to be recorded in the
deduction cards is determined in each implementation, depending on customer needs. For payroll
license customers instead, data to be recorded is driven by Fusion Payroll requirements since that data
is the only source for information for payroll calculation.

Banking Setup
An HR customer may want to add payee banking information even if payroll is not processed by
Oracle Fusion Payroll for Saudi. For example, banking setup may be required for reporting purposes or
because the data may be passed to other products, such as an expenses module.
To accommodate this scenario, the setup of banks and branches must be done before entering bank
accounts and payment methods for the payee. Additionally some payroll setup, described later in this
document, would be needed.
No banks or branches are predefined for Saudi. Banks and branches must be defined during
implementation. This can be done manually, by entering the banks and branches in the application, or
it can be done in a mass upload process.

Bank Accounts
Once banks and branches are set up, you can define the bank accounts that are needed for the
organization. Normally, implementation teams set up bank accounts that are used at an organizational
level, such as the source bank accounts for payments, rather than bank accounts at the individual payee
level.
No bank accounts are predefined for Saudi.
To define bank accounts:
1.
2.
Click Create.
3.
Note: If you want to use this bank account for processing payments related to payroll, select the
Payroll option in the Account Use field.

If you select EFT, the page is refreshed to show fields related to electronic file transfer (EFT):
During the payment process, the net pay balance is used to store the amount to be transferred as
remuneration for the payee. A net pay balance, named Net Pay, is predefined for Saudi, and no
additional setup is required during the implementation phase.

Consolidation Groups
Consolidation groups are used within the organization to enable grouping of different payrolls for
reporting purposes. No consolidation groups are predefined for Saudi. If you create payroll definitions
for the implementation, you must define at least one consolidation group first since it is mandatory
information for payroll definitions.
To set up consolidation groups:
1.
Sign in to the application with a role that has implementation privileges, such as
APPL_IMP_CONSULTANT.
2.
3.
4.
Enter a name and select a legislative data group. Description is optional, but useful to provide.

Click Save.
Payroll Definitions
Payroll definitions contain calendar and offset information that determine when payments are
calculated and costed. Using payroll definitions, you can specify payment frequency, processing
schedule, and other parameters for a particular payroll. Payroll period types, such as weekly or monthly,
determine the interval at which you pay employees.
88
Each payroll definition can be associated with only one payroll period type, and you must set up at
least one payroll definition for each payroll period type that you use to pay employees. When you
create a payroll definition, the complete payroll schedule is automatically generated, based on the
selected payroll period type, any offsets or calendar adjustments, and the number of years that you
specify. Once you have saved a payroll definition, you can assign employees to it on the Manage Payroll
Relationships page.
Before you can create a payroll definition, you must have already defined a legislative data group and
consolidation group.
No payroll definitions are predefined for Saudi.
To set up payroll definitions:

you might create another element for a housing allowance.
Element Entries
For earnings to be associated with a person, you must create an element entry for that person and that
element. In the sections that follow, you will see how an element entry is automatically generated by
creating a Salary Basis or a Compensation entry for the payee. Other processes (described in detail in
the Oracle Fusion Global Payroll Guide) can also be used to create element entries for a person.
