11.2.2.1 About Domain Values and CSV Worksheet Files for Oracle HR Analytics

You configure Oracle HR Analytics by mapping domain values to columns in the CSV files located in the $pmserver\server\infa_shared\LkpFiles folder. For example, D:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.1.1\server\infa_shared\Lkpfiles.

For more information on configuring domain values with CSV worksheet files, see Section 5.12, "About Domain Values" and Section 5.13, "Configuring the Domain Value Set with CSV Worksheet Files".

For more information on domain values, see Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse Data Model Reference.

Note:

Incorrect mappings result in inaccurate calculations of Oracle Business Intelligence metrics.

Table 11-1 lists the CSV worksheet files and the domain values for Oracle HR Analytics in the $pmserver\server\infa_shared\LkpFiles folder.

11.2.2.16 How to Configure Address Types for HR Profile

There are three address fields in the Employee dimension table:

  • Permanent address

  • Mail address

  • Work address

For each of these, we use only the primary ones. In addition, the following logic is used to determine the various types of addresses:

  • Permanent: Address Type = 'H' (This is also the home address, in other words)

  • Mail: Address Type = 'M'. If this is not available, use Permanent address (which can be the best alternate for mailing address).

  • Work: Address Type = 'Default'. If this is not available, use Permanent address (which can be the best alternate for mailing address).

You can modify this logic if required. For example, if your system tracks work address with a special address type 'W', then you should be able to modify the existing logic. Or, if you do not want to assume that the mail address (M) is same as the home address (H), you may want to remove the null evaluation check there.

To configure Address Type

  1. In Informatica PowerCenter Designer, open the SDE_ORA1158_Adaptor folder.

  2. In Mapplet Designer, open the mplt_SA_ORA_EmployeeDimension mapplet.

  3. Locate the expression transformation Exp_SA_Employees_Validate and scroll down the ports to get to the variables 'HOME_ADDRESS_ID_VAR', 'MAIL_ADDRESS_ID_VAR' and 'DEFAULT_ADDRESS_ID_VAR'.

    For example, if you have a specific address type for work addresses, (for example 'W'), you would modify the expression for the variable port DEFAULT_ADDRESS_ID_VAR as follows:

    From: :LKP.Lkp_Address_Id(INP_PERSON_ID, INP_EFFECTIVE_END_DATE, 'Y', 'Default', INP_DATASOURCE_NUM_ID)

    To: :LKP.Lkp_Address_Id(INP_PERSON_ID, INP_EFFECTIVE_END_DATE, 'Y', 'W', INP_DATASOURCE_NUM_ID)

    The output Address ID values are the next three ports 'PERM_ADDRESS_ID', 'MAIL_ADDRESS_ID' and 'WORK_ADDRESS_ID'. If you do not want to assume that the mail address (M) is same as the home address (H) in the event of mail address not being available, then you would modify the logic in the outgoing port 'MAIL_ADDRESS_ID' as follows:

    From: IIF(ISNULL(MAIL_ADDRESS_ID_VAR), HOME_ADDRESS_ID_VAR, MAIL_ADDRESS_ID_VAR)

    To: MAIL_ADDRESS_ID_VAR

  4. Validate and save changes to the repository. If you are using the version controlling for the Informatica repository, you will have to check in your changes as well.

11.2.2.17 How to Configure Phone Types for HR Profile

There are four phone related fields in the Employee dimension table, as follows:

  • Fax

  • Work phone

  • Pager

  • Mobile phone

The following logic is used to arrive at the various types of addresses:

  • Fax: Phone Type = 'WF' (Work Fax)

  • Work Phone: Phone Type = 'W1' (First work phone, if there are more than one)

  • Pager: Phone Type = 'P' (Pager)

  • Mobile: Phone Type = 'M' (Mobile)

You can modify this logic if required. For example, if your system tracks the primary work phone with a special phone type 'WP', instead of W1, then you should be able to modify the existing logic. The same applies for other phone types as well.

To configure Phone Type

  1. In Informatica PowerCenter Designer, open the SDE_ORA1158_Adaptor folder.

  2. In Mapplet Designer, open the mplt_SA_ORA_EmployeeDimension mapplet.

  3. Locate the expression transformation Exp_SA_Employee and scroll down the ports to get to the output ports 'EXT_FAX_PH_NUM', 'EXT_WORK_PHONE', 'EXT_PAGER_NUM' and 'EXT_MOBILE_NUM'.

    For example, if you have a specific phone type for the primary work phone, 'WP', you would modify the expression for the output port EXT_WORK_PHONE as follows:

    From: :LKP.Lkp_Phone_Number(INP_PERSON_ID, 'W1', INP_EFFECTIVE_END_DATE, INP_DATASOURCE_NUM_ID)

    To: :LKP.Lkp_Phone_Number(INP_PERSON_ID, 'WP', INP_EFFECTIVE_END_DATE, INP_DATASOURCE_NUM_ID)

  4. Validate and save changes to the repository. If you are using the version controlling for the Informatica repository, you will have to check in your changes as well.

11.2.2.18 How to Configure Education Degree Codes for Employee Dimension

This section explains how to configure the categories that are used to evaluate the highest education degree code for an employee.

The session SDE_ORA_ EmployeeDimension uses the Informatica parameter $$QUALIFICATION_CATEGORY_LIST to get the list of categories for the defined Education Degrees in Oracle E-Business Suite. The mapping SDE_ORA_EmployeeDimension uses this parameter to identify and populate Highest Education Degree attribute for the Employee Dimension. Incorrect setup of the parameter could cause the issues with quality of the data for Highest Education Degree attribute in Employee Dimension.

To configure the categories that are used to evaluate the highest education degree code for an employee:

  1. In the DAC Client, display the Design view.

    For more information about logging into the DAC, see Section A.1, "How to Log Into the DAC Client".

  2. Select a container from the drop down list to the right of the Execute button.

  3. Display the Tasks tab, and select the SDE_ORA_EmployeeDimension task.

  4. Specify or create the $$QUALIFICATION_CATEGORY_LIST parameter with an appropriate value.

    For example, $$QUALIFICATION_CATEGORY_LIST = 'DEGREE', 'DT'.

  5. Save your changes.

To obtain the list of the valid values for the education degree codes please login to Oracle E-Business Suite Instance using SQL*Plus and execute the following SQL:

SELECT lookup_code, meaning FROM hr_lookups WHERE lookup_type = 'PER_CATEGORIES'

Select from the returned lookup_code column values and decide which ones are used to identify Education Degrees.

In Oracle EBS Application module, a Flexfield is a field that allows a user to customize the Oracle applications. Each Flexfield in Oracle in turn consists of sub-fields called segments. Each segment is assigned a value set. The value set consists of values.

The main purpose of using Flexfields in Oracle EBS Applications is to customize the applications according to the business environment and practices. Oracle EBS Application allows a user to validate values that are entered in these flexfields. A user can change the structure of a Flexfield depending on the data in the application.

Since Flexfield configurations vary from implementation to implementation, in order to accommodate all kinds of flexfield configurations done at the Oracle EBS Applications end, the attributes sourced from Flexfield columns is parameterized.

To configure Oracle HR Analytics to support flexfields, do the following:

11.2.2.23 How to Configure multi-segmented Flexfields

This section explains how to configure HR Analytics for multi-segmented Flexfields for any column.

In case your Flexfield configuration for a given business column involves more that one segment column, or in case you want to report a business column as a concatenation of more than one segment column separated by a character (for example, a period '.'), then the corresponding parameter can be used to provide the information correctly. The example of configuring Job Name flexfield is provided below to illustrate the process.

When Oracle Business Intelligence Applications is installed out-of-the-box, the Informatica parameter for the task 'SDE_ORA_CodeDimension_Job' is set to the following:

$$JOBNAME_FLXFLD_SEGMENT_COL=SEGMENT6

If the Job Name in your deployment is configured using SEGMENT3 together with SEGMENT6 (or if you want to report Job Name as a concatenation of these two with 'dot' as the separator), you should set the Informatica parameter value as:

$$JOBNAME_FLXFLD_SEGMENT_COL=SEGMENT3 || SEGMENT6

Or, if you want a period (that is '.') in between, set the Informatica parameter value as:

$$JOBNAME_FLXFLD_SEGMENT_COL=SEGMENT3 || '.' || SEGMENT6

If your OLTP table already stores the concatenated value in some other column (like NAME), you could use it directly as follows:

$$JOBNAME_FLXFLD_SEGMENT_COL=NAME

Note: You must make sure you take a look at the SQL code (in Informatica PowerCenter Designer Source Qualifier object) before setting the parameter values. For example, before configuring the values for the Informatica parameter $$JOBNAME_FLXFLD_SEGMENT_COL (as in the above example), you should know which table the data will be pulled in. If necessary, use the following steps to obtain OLTP table names.

To obtain the OLTP table names:

  1. In the DAC Client, display the Design view.

    For more information about logging into the DAC, see Section A.1, "How to Log Into the DAC Client".

  2. Select a container from the drop down list to the right of the Execute button.

  3. Display the Tasks tab, and select the SDE_ORA_JobDimension and SDE_ORA_JobDimension tasks (using the example job name flexfield example).

  4. Note the value of the following parameter (.

    • $$JOBNAME_FLXFLD_SEGMENT_COL

    In this case, the mapplet name that you need to derive is mplt_BC_ORA_Codes_Job.

  5. Launch Informatica PowerCenter Designer and log on to the repository and navigate to the appropriate folder.

  6. Open the mapplet found in Step#2, open the Source Qualifier object, and see the SQL override. Get the physical OLTP table name from here. In this case, the table name is 'PER_JOB_DEFINITIONS'.

Once you know the OLTP table names, you can work out the column names to use in the parameter file (SEGMENT3 or SEGMENT6 or NAME and so on) that really exist in the table PER_JOB_DEFINITIONS.

11.2.2.24 How to Configure Flags for the Pay Type Dimension

The Pay Type dimension W_PAY_TYPE_D has three Flag columns namely COMP_FLG, TAXABLE_FLG and PENSION_COMP_FLG, apart from others. Each of these three flags can be either 'Y' or 'N'. These flag columns indicate whether the Pay Type specified in the current record is a Taxable Earning type, or Regular Compensation Earning type or a Pension Compensation Earning type. These Flag columns are chosen to contribute towards slowly changing dimension of type 2, and hence should be configured correctly.

Each of these three Flag columns are evaluated based on the Incoming Classification Name using a Flat File lookup. This Flat file needs to be configured to see the accurate values of the Pay Type Flags in the DataWarehouse.

To Configure Flags for the Pay Type Dimension

  1. Open the file_comp_pension_taxable_flg_ora<ver>.csv from Informatica Server\LkpFiles directory.

  2. Add all possible Classification Names that are being used in your business.

  3. Corresponding to the Classification Name, add the relevant values for the Pay Type Flags. Make sure to use either 'Y' or 'N'.

In Oracle HR Analytics, these flags apply to Earnings only. Therefore, you should only need to configure Classification Names related to Earnings. For other areas, the default Informatica mapping values should be acceptable.

11.2.2.25 How to Configure Classification Names for Payroll

This section explains how to configure classification names for Payroll.

The Aggregated items are loaded into the Payroll Fact table with a DETAIL_FLG = 'N', apart from the line items. The Aggregated Line items that are loaded are: TOTAL_GROSS, NET_PAY, TOTAL_DEDUCTIONS and TOTAL_TAXES.

The following parameters need to be configured to get accurate results. Each Aggregated Line item is computed by grouping by elements that belong to a certain Classification name set.

Table 11-2 Classification Name Parameters

Parameter Name Description

$$GROSS_PAY_CLASSIFICATION_NAME

Add all the Classification Names that add up to the Total Gross Pay.

$$TOTAL_DEDUCTION_CLASSIFICATION_NAME

Add all the Classification Names that correspond to any deduction.

$$TOTAL_TAXES_CLASSIFICATION_NAME

Add all the Classification Names that correspond to various Taxes.

$$TOTAL_GROSS_FOR_NETPAY_EARNINGS

Add all the Earnings Classification Names that are realized in Net pay. Note that some Classification Names are considered for Gross pay, but do not feature in the Net Pay (for example, Imputed Income). This is the major difference between this parameter and the $$GROSS_PAY_CLASSIFICATION_NAME parameter.

$$TOTAL_GROSS_FOR_NETPAY_DEDUCTIONS

This is same as the parameter $$TOTAL_DEDUCTION_CLASSIFICATION_NAME. However, in case some additional Classification Names are required to be added or removed for Net Pay, this parameter should be used for that.

The parameters are assigned default values when Oracle Business Intelligence Applications is installed out of the box, but you can modify the values by following the steps below.

To configure the classification name parameters:

  1. In the DAC Client, display the Design view.

    For more information about logging into the DAC, see Section A.1, "How to Log Into the DAC Client".

  2. Select a container from the drop down list to the right of the Execute button.

  3. Display the Tasks tab, and select the SDE_ORA_PayrollFact_Agg_Items.

  4. Specify the following parameters as appropriate with an appropriate value.

    • $$CLASSIFICATION_NAMES_FOR_GROSS_PAY='PTO Accruals','Earnings','Imputed Earnings'

    • $$CLASSIFICATION_NAMES_FOR_TOTAL_DEDUCTION='Involuntary Deductions','Pre-Tax Deductions','Voluntary Deductions','Tax Deductions'

    • $$CLASSIFICATION_NAMES_FOR_TOTAL_TAXES='Tax Deductions'

    • $$CLASSIFICATION_NAMES_FOR_NET_PAY_EARNINGS='PTO Accruals','Earnings'

    • $$CLASSIFICATION_NAMES_FOR_NET_PAY_DEDUCTIONS='Involuntary Deductions','Pre-Tax Deductions','Voluntary Deductions','Tax Deductions'

  5. Save your changes.

To find out the possible Classification Names existing in your system, please run the following SQL against the OLTP Database:

SELECT CLASSIFICATION_NAME FROM PAY_ELEMENT_CLASSIFICATIONS WHERE LEGISLATION_CODE LIKE 'US'

The Classification Name of Elements can be obtained using the following SQL:

Note: Enter the Element Type IDs of the elements for which you need the Classification Name within the quotes. If there are multiple elements, separate them using commas:

SELECT E.ELEMENT_TYPE_ID,E.ELEMENT_NAME,C.CLASSIFICATION_NAME FROM PAY_ELEMENT_TYPES_F E, PAY_ELEMENT_CLASSIFICATIONS C

WHERE E.CLASSIFICATION_ID = C.CLASSIFICATION_ID AND E.ELEMENT_TYPE_ID IN ()

11.2.5.1 Configuration Steps for Oracle HR Analytics For All Source Systems

This section contains configuration steps that apply to all source systems, and contains the following topics:

11.2.5.1.1 How to Aggregate the Payroll Table for Oracle HR Analytics

You can aggregate the Payroll table to a different time levels, and aggregate levels of Employees, Jobs, and Payment Types dimensions. There are two time grain parameters to configure for this aggregate table and these parameters need to have the same value.

The GRAIN parameter has a preconfigured value of Month. The possible values for the GRAIN parameter are:

  • DAY

  • WEEK

  • MONTH

  • QUARTER

  • YEAR

The Payroll aggregate table is fully loaded from the base table in the initial ETL run by the mapping 'PLP_PayrollAggregate_Load_Full'. The table can grow to millions of records. The Payroll aggregate table is not fully reloaded from the base table after an incremental ETL run. Oracle HR Analytics minimizes the incremental aggregation effort, by modifying the aggregate table incrementally as the base table is updated. Oracle Business Intelligence Applications looks for new records in the base table during the incremental ETL. This process is done in two steps:

  1. There are new records in the W_PAYROLL_A table, which are inserted after the last ETL run. These new records are inserted into the W_PAYROLL_A_TMP table. This step is part of the post load-processing workflow, and the mapping is called 'PLP_PayrollAggregate_Extract'.

  2. Oracle HR Analytics aggregates the W_PAYROLL_A_TMP table and joins it with the W_PAYROLL_A aggregate table to insert new or update existing buckets to the aggregate table. This step is part of the post load-processing workflow, and the mapping is called 'PLP_PayrollAggregate_Load'.

To load the Payroll aggregate table (W_PAYROLL_A), you need to configure the post-load processing parameters in the DAC (Data Administration Console).

To load the Payroll aggregate table (W_PAYROLL_A):

  1. In the DAC Client, display the Design view.

    For more information about logging into the DAC, see Section A.1, "How to Log Into the DAC Client".

  2. Display the Tasks tab, and select the Task PLP_PayrollAggregate_Load.

  3. Add a parameter under the parameters tab with the Name $$GRAIN.

  4. Depending upon the aggregation requirement define the value as one among 'DAY', 'WEEK', 'MONTH', 'QUARTER' or 'YEAR' and Choose the value to be Static.

  5. Save the Task.

11.2.5.1.2 About Configuring the Employee Snapshot Fact tables

The Employee Daily Snapshot Fact table stores employee-related metrics for all employees against their primary job function. You can configure the two fact tables that store Employee Snapshot data, namely W_EMPLOYEE_DAILY_SNP_F and W_EMPLOYEE_MONTHLY_SNP_F.

You can configure the Rolling Period and the Granularity for the Employee Snapshot data process.

Rolling Period

The Employee Daily Snapshot Fact table is loaded everyday, the date being identified by the snapshot date column. For example, if your organization has 1000 employees, this table would load 1000 records everyday. If an employee's contract is terminated on a particular day, the following day's snapshot data would not have that record (that is, 999 records would be uploaded). Continuing this example, if you run ETL for 60 days, you will have 60 snapshot data sets. However, the number of days worth of snapshot data you want to store can be configured. In fact, you can configure to store only for a 'rolling period of' some days, example 30. This is the out of box setting. If you start your ETL on January 1 and keep running for 40 days, you will have snapshot data sets from Jan 20 until Feb 10. If you configure to store only 7 rolling days, you will have snapshot data sets from Feb 3 until Feb 10, and so on.

The ETL mapping responsible for maintaining the rolling period choice you have indicated is 'PLP_EmployeeDailySnapshot_Trim', which uses two Informatica parameters:

  • $$KEEP_PERIOD

    Indicates your choice of the period type based on which you will be providing the rolling periods. The Valid values for this parameter are 'DAY', 'WEEK', 'MONTH', 'QUARTER', and 'YEAR' (values should include single quotes as indicated).

  • $$NUM_OF_PERIOD

    Indicates your choice of how many days/weeks/months/years (set by $$KEEP_PERIOD) data you want to preserve in a rolling fashion. The valid value for this parameter is any integer.

For example, if you choose to preserve a rolling period of 45 Days, you would set $$KEEP_PERIOD='DAY' and $$NUM_OF_PERIOD=45.

Granularity

The Employee Monthly Snapshot Fact table stores the end-of-month snapshot data for all employees in your organization. Out of the box, this table stores end-of-month snapshot data, but this is configurable to store end-of-week, end-of-quarter or even end-of-year data. If you configure it to store end-of-month, as it is installed out-of-the-box, then you will have one snapshot data set for a given month, the set being refreshed everyday.

The out-of-box setting for the W_EMPLOYEE_MONTHLY_SNP_F table is to store end-of-month snapshot data set, on set for each calendar month. However, this can be configured. If you like to have this table store end-of-week, or end-of-quarter or even end-of-year data, your would need to configure the correct Informatica parameter definition in the DAC. This parameter definition is as follows:

  • $$GRAIN: Indicates the chosen granularity of the snapshot fact table that stores data at a interval higher than the base snapshot fact table. Valid values for this parameter are 'WEEK', 'MONTH', 'QUARTER', 'YEAR' (values should include single quotes as indicated).

Notes:

  • Do not set the value of $$GRAIN to 'DAY'.

  • In the reporting logical metadata (RPD), the table W_EMPLOYEE_MONTHLY_SNP_F is joined with the Calendar Month dimension table - both in the physical layer as well as the logical layer. If you are change the $$GRAIN out-of-box value from 'MONTH' to anything else (like 'QUARTER'), you would need to modify the join in the RPD as well to the appropriate date dimension.

  • The physical name of the table can still remain as W_EMPLOYEE_MONTHLY_SNP_F. You can change the logical name (or alias) appropriately. For example, if your $$GRAIN is 'QUARTER', you might change it to quarterly snapshot.

To configure the Employee Snapshot Fact tables, perform the following tasks:

11.2.5.1.3 How to control the rolling period for storing Employee Daily Snapshot data

11.2.5.3.1 How to Tune Performance for the Payroll table for PeopleSoft HCM HR Analytics

The Payroll mappings designed are designed to take care of the Payroll Adjustment and the Payroll Reversal process. These are complicated processes and normally take a reasonable amount of time to complete. Depending on your requirement, there are two ways you can achieve better overall performance in the Payroll Analytics. These techniques are as follows:

  • Inactivate Adjustments and Reversals, if not required, for a given pay period

  • Defer calculating Adjustments and Reversals for some time, until needed.

To inactivate Adjustment and Reversal calculations for Payroll

If you decide that there will be no Payroll Adjustment and Reversal for a Pay period, then you can choose to inactivate those tasks in the DAC.

  1. Go to Design Tab in the DAC Client.

  2. Select Tasks.

  3. Clear the check the box under the Inactive Column of the following tasks:

    • SDE_PSFT_PayrollFact_Deductions_Adjustments_Reversals

    • SDE_PSFT_PayrollFact_Earnings_Adjustments_Reversals

    • SDE_PSFT_PayrollFact_EarningsOther_Adjustments_Reversals

    • SDE_PSFT_PayrollFact_Total_Adjustments_Reversals

    • SDE_PSFT_PayrollFact_Taxes_Adjustments_Reversals

  4. Save the tasks.

  5. Assemble the Subject Area (HR- Payroll) and build the Execution Plan.

To defer Adjustment and Reversal calculations for Payroll

  1. inactivate Adjustment and Reversal calculations for Payroll and reassemble the Subject Area (Payroll) and Execution Plan, as described in the task above.

  2. When you choose to run these again, reactivate the tasks, and reassemble Subject Area (Payroll) and Execution Plan.

  3. Adjust the parameter $$LAST_EXTRACT_DATE so that it goes back to the date (preferably one day earlier) since when you decided not to run these tasks.
