Configuring the Common SSHR Modules

Configuring the People in Hierarchy, My List, and Search Pages

This topic provides information to configure the People in Hierarchy, My List, and Search pages.

The navigation options from the People in Hierarchy page depend on the path that the manager has taken to navigate to the page. There are two possible paths:

People in Hierarchy

The People in Hierarchy region displays a hierarchical view of the current manager's subordinates. Users can expand or collapse the lower levels of management as desired.

By default, the hierarchy uses a supervisor hierarchy (based either on the supervisor or the supervisor assignment).

Note: If you want to build a hierarchy based on the supervisor's assignments, you must specify the hierarchy type using the HR: Supervisor Hierarchy Usage profile option and you must enable multiple assignments using the SSHR:Enable Multiple Assignments in SSHR profile option. See Multiple Assignments.

However, if you prefer, you can display a position hierarchy. To do this, set the profile option HR:Display Position Hierarchy. Set this profile option to Yes if you prefer to display the position hierarchy.

Note: Oracle recommends that you set up either position or supervisor security if you are using SSHR because the manager self-service functionality enables you to choose whether to display the person hierarchy by either supervisor or position. However, you can set up other types of security if you prefer.

Personalizing Hierarchy, My List, and Search Pages

Important: Changes in Oracle HRMS Version 11.i.10

Oracle HRMS version 11.i.10 delivers new Hierarchy, Search, and My List pages. This means that the base definitions of these pages in the Meta Data Services Repository have changed. As a result, any personalizations that you may have created on these pages are no longer valid.

In addition, SSHR plans to use the enhanced sorting functionality provided by the OA Framework. However, as this is a future development, sorting support is not currently available for the Hierarchy page.

Simple Search Personalizations

From some self-service pages, you can search for a person by entering the person's name in the Name field. If you prefer to use different search criteria, you can use the Personalization Framework to enable a drop-down list displaying the Full Name, Last Name, and First Name as search criteria. You can select any of these criteria to be the default criterion by setting the Initial Value attribute (the Last Name is the standard default value).

  1. Select the Personalize Page link.

  2. Navigate to the QuickSearch region

  3. Personalize the Search Filter item by changing the value in the Rendered field to True.

Searching by First Name

If you choose to personalize the Search function to search by First Name, you must create a function index for the first name (Oracle provides a function index for the last name). To do this, you must use a SQL client to add an additional index to the following table:

The syntax for creating an index is as follows (for an example, see the function index PER_PEOPLE_F_N2 UPPER("LAST_NAME" which is provided by Oracle):

create index <index_name> on <schema_name>.per_all_people_f(upper(first_name))

See: Configuring Web Pages

Name Format

The Enter Process pages display names in brief format by default. If you prefer to see the full name of the employee or worker, set the profile option HR:Display Person Name to Full Name.

Customer Overrides

Customer overrides enable you to configure data without making any changes to database tables. In the Enter Process pages (My List, Hierarchy, Person Search), you can use customer overrides to configure a user-defined format for displaying positions and jobs. For example, you can display a name using fewer segments.

For more information on overrides, see: Legislation and Customer Overrides.

Navigation Links (Breadcrumbs)

The delivered Hierarchy, My List, and Search pages display navigation links to help you navigate through the pages. For example:

Manager Actions: People in Hierarchy > Manager Actions: People in My List

If you choose to include this functionality in custom versions of the Enter Person pages, set the following function parameter:

Multiple Assignments

If a person has more than one assignment for a given manager, the manager needs to select the Action icon for the relevant assignment in order to carry out the action.

To enable multiple assignments, set the profile option HR:Enable Multiple Assignments in SSHR to Yes at the required level. This allows managers to update all assignments reporting to them. If you set the profile option to No, managers can only view and edit primary assignments.

Note: If you set this profile option to Yes, Oracle recommends that you create supervisor-based security profiles for SSHR managers. See: Security Profiles in Managing User Access

Transactions Across Business Groups

You can choose to enable your managers to see the names of persons in other business groups but prevent them from performing any transactions on persons in other legislations. To do this, you use the HR:Restrict Transactions Across Legislations in SSHR profile option in conjunction with the existing HR:Cross Business Group profile.

If you set the HR:Cross Business Group profile to Yes, managers can see the names of persons in other business groups and perform transactions on them. If you then set the HR:Restrict Transactions Across Legislations in SSHR profile to Yes, the application disables the names of the persons in other legislations.

HR:Cross Business Group Site Yes/No No
HR:Restrict Transactions Across Legislations in SSHR All Yes/No No
HR: Supervisor Hierarchy Usage Site    

HR:Display Position Hierarchy

If you set this profile option to Yes, the application displays the position hierarchy on the Enter Person page instead of the supervisor hierarchy.

HR:Display Brief Person Name

If you set this profile option to Brief Name (default value), the application displays the person names in the brief format instead of the long name format.

HR:Enable Multiple Assignments in SSHR

This profile option controls whether a manager can view and update multiple assignments for a person in SSHR. If you set the profile option to Yes, the application displays all the assignments for a person on the Enter Process page. Otherwise, the application only displays primary assignments.

HR:Cross Business Group

This user profile option allows SSHR users to see certain information for more than one business group. For example, managers can view persons in other business groups.

HR:Restrict Transactions Across Legislations in SSHR

If you set this profile option to Yes, SSHR managers cannot carry out transactions on persons (within their supervisor hierarchy) who are from different legislations.

HR: Supervisor Hierarchy Usage

This profile option determines how supervisor hierarchies are built within Oracle HRMS and SSHR. You can select either a person-based or assignment-based hierarchy.

Additional Configuration Steps

Search Page

  1. To prevent your users from using the Basic or Advanced Search, hide the corresponding region in the Personalization Framework or use function exclusions to exclude the Person Search function at the responsibility level.

  2. You can configure the search criteria for the Basic and Advanced Searches. You can rearrange the sequence of the criteria by configuring the displayed fields using the Personalization Framework.

    See: Configuring Web Pages

Configuring the Review Page

You can use the Personalization Framework to configure the Review and Confirm pages to suit your requirements. All of the standard Personalization Framework functionality is available to you including the ability to rearrange fields, to insert and edit instructions, and to hide and display fields and regions.

For more information, see the following documentation:

Approvals

If you configure approvals, users can enter approvals comments in this page. If you are using dynamic approvals , the user can view approvers and pre-approval and post-approval notifiers, and add further approvers and notification recipients.

You can set up the approval properties for a process by changing the activity level attributes for the Review workflow functions.

See: Approvals Overview

Attachments

If you have enable the Attachments region in the Personalization Framework, users can attach supporting documents to the current transaction. An attachment can be a file, a URL, or text.

What-If

If you have enabled the What If region in the Personalization Framework, users can assess the impact of the change on the employee's eligibility for benefits before committing the change or sending it for approval.

Note: The What If feature will only function if you have Oracle Advanced Benefits (OAB) installed.

Workflow

The workflow details for this module are listed below:

Workflow Process Display Name:

Common functionality which is used by all processes.

Configurable Workflow Attributes:

Process Display Name Function Activity Display Name Function Activity Attribute Display Name
  Review Page HR_DYNAMIC_APPROVAL_LEVEL
  Review Page HR_APPROVAL_REQUIRED_FLAG
  Review Page Confirm Instruction Application Short Name
  Review Page Confirm Save Instruction Name
  Review Page Confirm Send for Approval Instruction Name

HR_DYNAMIC_APPROVAL_LEVEL:

This attribute is used to specify the number of levels to which this transaction needs to be forwarded for approval in the approval hierarchy. For example, if the value is 1, the transaction is submitted for approval to one level higher than the initiating person. When the transaction has been approved, it is committed to the HRMS application. By default, this attribute reads the approval level from the APPROVAL_LEVEL (Approval Level) item level attribute. If you specify a value for the item level attribute, you can control the approval level for all the processes. If you specify a value for the HR_DYNAMIC_APPROVAL_LEVEL attribute, it overrides the item level attribute for the process for which you have specified the value.

HR_APPROVAL_REQUIRED_FLAG:

This attribute is used to specify whether the current transaction requires an approval. The valid values are:

Confirm Instruction Application Short Name:

In addition to the standard confirmation message shown in the confirmation page, you can also configure messages that are specific to the process. You can specify one for a scenario for which approval is required and one for a scenario for which no approval is required. Processes can be set to either Approval Required or Approval Not Required, but not both, using the HR_APPROVAL_REQUIRED_FLAG. For example, you can define a message for Confirm Save Instruction Name and Confirm Send for Approval Instruction Name. You register this message under your custom application.

Confirm Send for Approval Instruction Name:

The text associated with this message name is displayed in the confirmation page immediately after the standard confirmation message. This text is only displayed when the process does not require approval.

The text associated with this message name is displayed in the confirmation page immediately after the standard confirmation message. This text is only displayed when the process requires approval.

Note: You must copy the delivered processes and make changes to the copy. If you make changes to the delivered processes, they will be overwritten when new patches are applied to your system.

Additional Configuration Steps:

  1. Decide how you want to use your SIT modules:

    • standalone - as an Employee or Manager menu

    • chained - as part of a self-service action flow

    • chained - as part of a Personal Information flow

    See: Manage Employment Events Functions and Workflow

  2. Enable your SITs using the Special Information Types form. You must enable them for each business group and select at least the Enabled and Other check boxes.

    See: Enabling Special Information Types, Oracle HRMS Enterprise and Workforce Management

  3. Check the title of the SIT type. This title appears as the region header above the data in the self-service module.

  4. Use the Personalization Framework to restrict the SIT types that are displayed. By default, all SIT types that are enabled using the above procedure are displayed in the self-service SIT module (defined by the selected person's business group), however, you can use the Personalization Framework to display only specific types.

    To display only certain special information types, personalize the HR_PERSON_SIT_DETAILS_SS region at the appropriate level (for example, responsibility or function) and in the Flex Settings box for HrSitKeyFlex, list the key flexfield structure codes of only the types you wish to appear. After each structure code, list the names of the segments you wish to appear for that special information type. Separate multiple segments with single pipe symbols (|) and separate multiple structures with double pipe symbols (||).

    Note: If you list a structure code with no segment names, the special information type does not appear on your self-service pages.

    If you choose to only display certain SITs, you should also personalize the HR_PERSON_SIT_UPDATE_SS region and the HR_PERSON_SIT_REVIEW_SS region to correspond to the HR_PERSON_SIT_DETAILS_SS region.

Additional Configuration Steps

  1. First, you choose how you want to use your EIT modules:

    • standalone - as an Employee or Manager menu

    • chained - as part of a Manage Employment Events flow

    • chained - as part of a Personal Information flow

  2. User responsibilities and business group legislation codes restrict the EITs that appear in a self service module. Before you can add the EIT function to an SSHR process, you must restrict the EITs available to your responsibilities. All EITs are available to all business groups and delivered responsibilities, in other words, there are no predefined legislation restrictions. All EITs are already available to the business group for your responsibility.

    You enable EITs in the Information Types Security window.

    1. Copy the EITs for the delivered Manager Self-Service or Employee Self-Service responsibility to a custom responsibility.

    2. Delete the EITs that are not required for your responsibility.

    3. Save your work.

    Note: The Context Description for the descriptive flexfield context value for the EIT appears as the region header in the self-service module. You configure the Context Description in the Descriptive Flexfield Segments window.

    The self-service EIT module displays all EITs you enable using the above steps.

    If your responsibility only covers one business group, you can specify the required EITs directly in the Information Types region. If your responsibility covers multiple business groups, you need to include the EITs from the other business groups with your responsibility.

    See: Setting Up Extra Information Types for a Responsibility, Oracle HRMS Configuring, Reporting, and System Administration Guide

  3. Use the Personalization Framework to restrict which EIT segments appear on your self-service pages.

    To display only certain segments, personalize the region at the appropriate level and list the names of the segments you wish to appear for that EIT. Separate multiple segments with single pipe symbols (|) and separate multiple structures with double pipe symbols (||).

    Note: If you list a structure code with no segment names, the EIT does not appear on the page..

Configuring Views

Configuring the My Information and My Employee Information Views

This topic provides information on configuring the My Information and My Employee Information View.

Personalizations

Using personalizations, you enable only the functionality, information, and controls you want to make available to users. For example, you can display only the column headings of your choice in Summary and Details views. Consider the following personalizations specific to My Employee Information:

Enable Manager Actions Icon

You can navigate to Manager Actions and initiate a self-service action for employees listed on My Employee Information, My List, or Advanced Search pages. To do this, enable the Action icon. Your Employee Type (EMP or CWK) determines whether you navigate to the Manager Actions or the Contingent Worker Manager Actions function. You can enable the Action icon on the following pages:

See: The Personalization Framework

See: Configuring Web Pages

See: OA Framework Personalization and Extensibility Guide.

My Employee Information

The main page for My Employee Information displays information in six categories, grouped on the following sub tabs:

Note: The Training, Effort Distribution, and Contracts tabs are hidden by default. To display these tabs, see the section Menu and Function Names, below.

Enable the Action icon for each tab by clicking the Personalize Page link. Apply the default scope of Page: 'Oracle Self Service Human Resources: My Employee Information'.

Using the Employment tab as an example, navigate the following nodes:

For each tab, navigate the child nodes beneath Query to enable the Action icon when you view selected people from search results or My List:

For each tab, the sibling nodes beside Query (beneath Stack Layout) enable the Action icon for position hierarchies and supervisor hierarchies. Navigate the following nodes beneath Stack Layout:

To enable the Action icon at the function, location, site, organization, or responsibility level, click the Personalize icon and set the value of the Rendered field corresponding to the level.

Repeat the above steps in a similar way for the remaining tabs.

Note: When you personalize at the page level by selecting a scope using the Page: prefix, as shown here, your personalizations are unique to that page. Shared regions can appear on multiple pages. When you select a scope using the Shared Region: prefix (such as Quick Search), your changes propagate to all instances of the region on all pages that use it.

My List

To personalize the My List page, click the Manage My List link to display the My List page. Set the scope on the Choose Personalization Context page to Shared Region: My List. Navigate the following nodes:

To filter name searches, enable the search filter list for First Name, Last Name, or Full Name on the My Employee Information page, the Basic Search Page, or the My List page. If you do not enable the list, users see only the Name label and the Search field, and the default filter is Last Name. Navigate the following nodes:

Name Format

The My Information and My Employee Information pages display names in brief format by default. If you prefer to see the full name of the employee or worker, set the profile option HR:Display Person Name to Full Name.

Overrides

In the My Information and My Employee Information pages, the position and job names are displayed using a concatenated flexfield format. If required, you can use customer overrides to configure a user-defined format for displaying position and job names. For example, you can display a name using fewer segments.

For more information on overrides, see: Legislation and Customer Overrides.

Menu and Function Names

Navigation is available from the Employee or Manager Self Service menu, or new menus you configure. In addition to including the My Employee Information function in new menus, add the following predefined submenus as-is:

Personalization

When HR managers or Payroll managers log in to Oracle SSHR using the HR Professional responsibility to view the compensation details for employees in the Compensation Activity tabbed region, they can now view the compensation activity for all element types. Oracle SSHR displays all elements by default. If you want to display only specific elements, then you can use the Personalization feature to set the default priority using the Default Priority column in the Table: Elements Region.

The Compensation Activity view displays all the elements for a worker unless they are linked to benefit plans and, therefore, have rates defined. If this is the case, only the rates are displayed. If you want to restrict the elements displayed in this view, create an element set (of type Customization Set) containing the elements you want to display, and select this element set in the Element Set Name user profile option.

Workflow Process Display Name:

Process Display Name Usage
Change Pay Main Process
Hire or Placement Main Process
Worker Status Change Main Process
Change Hours Main Process
Assignment Rate/Payrate Sub Process
Quick Change Hours Main Process

The main processes above use the sub process Assignment Rate/Payrate. The Workflow Attribute "Selected Person Type" drives the decision to switch between displaying the Change Pay page (Selected Person Type = Employee) and the Assignment Rate page (Selected Person Type = Contingent Worker).

The Applicant hire process uses the same workflow process as Hire or Placement (New Hire).

Quick Change Hours Process

The Quick Change Hours process (HR_QK_CHANGE_HOURS_JSP_PRC) is a change hours process in addition to the existing Change Hours process (HR_CHANGE_HOURS_PRC) that includes the Change Pay transaction page. Using this process, managers can quickly change the work schedule and assignment category of a worker and submit the transaction, without requiring to change pay.

If you want to use the Quick Change Hours process, then you must change the name of process in the predefined or custom HR_CHANGE_HOURS function.

For example, by default, the parameters of the predefined HR_CHANGE_HOURS_SS function are:

pAMETranType=SSHRMS&pAMEAppId=800&pPayRate=Y&pProcessName=HR_CHG_HOURS_JSP_PRC&pItemType=HRSSA&pCalledFrom=HR_CHANGE_HOURS_SS&pEffectiveDate=

The process that is used in the predefined function is the HR_CHG_HOURS_JSP_PRC, which is a standard Change Hours process.

To use the Quick Change Hours process, change the value of the pProcessName parameter as pProcessName=HR_QK_CHANGE_HOURS_JSP_PRC.

To supplement the delivered document types, categories, and subcategories, you can create your own objects to suit your business requirements.

See: Creating Document Categories, Subcategories, and Types

Setting up Approvals for the Documents of Records Function

The supplied Documents of Record function does not use approvals, by default.

The following are the features of the supplied functions:

Function Name User Function Name Web HTML Call Parameters
HR_DOR_SS Documents of Record OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/per/dor/webui/DocsOfRecordForPersonPG&akRegionApplicationId=800 pItemType=HRCORE&pNtfyReviewerPrc=HR_NOTIFY_DOR_REVIEWER_PRC&pNtfyRevieweePrc=HR_NOTIFY_DOR_REVIEWEE_PRC&pCalledFrom=HR_DOR_SS&OAFunc=HR_DOR_SS&addBreadCrumb=Y
HR_DOR_MGR_SS Documents of Record OA.jsp?akRegionCode=HR_PERSON_TREE_TOP_SS&akRegionApplicationId=800 pCalledFrom=HR_DOR_SS&pManagerEnabled=Y&addBreadCrumb=Y

To use approvals in the Documents of Record functionality, Oracle SSHR uses the following predefined components:

Based on your business requirements, to implement approvals in the Documents of Record functionality, you can follow any of the approaches:

  1. You can change the parameters of the delivered HR_DOR_SS form function using the Form Functions window.

    Add the parameter values as given in the following example:

    pItemType=HRSSA&pAMETranType=SSHRMS&pAMEAppId=800&pProcessName=PER_DOR_JSP_PRC&pFromMenu=Y&pApprovalMode=YD&OAFunc=HR_DOR_SS&pCalledFrom=HR_DOR_SS
  2. You can create a custom function to use the approvals feature. Complete the following steps:

    1. Using the Form Functions window, copy the supplied function: HR_DOR_SS and create a custom function.

    2. In the Parameter field of the custom form function, edit the values of the form function to add the following predefined components.

      Add the parameter values as given in the following example:

      pItemType=HRSSA&pAMETranType=SSHRMS&pAMEAppId=800&pProcessName=PER_DOR_JSP_PRC&pFromMenu=Y&pApprovalMode=YD&OAFunc=HR_DOR_SS&pCalledFrom=HR_DOR_SS
    3. Create a custom function: HR_DOR_MGR_SS and modify the parameters of this form function to include the custom HR_DOR_SS function.

    4. Add the custom form functions to the Manager Self-Service, Employee Self-Service, and Contingent Worker Self-Service menus, as required.

For more information on how to define functions, see: Defining Functions for SSHR

To base approvals on your business requirements, you can:

When you implement the approvals process for the Documents of Record functionality, Oracle SSHR displays the following changes:

Quick Termination Main Process

Quick Termination Process

The Quick Termination process (HR_QK_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC) is in addition to the existing Termination process (HR_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC). Using this process managers can enter termination details of their workers and submit the transaction for approval, without having to navigate to the 'Change Manager' page to reallocate the workers who report to the terminated worker, if the terminated worker is a manager.

Note: If you use the process named HR_QK_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC, then to automatically move the workers reporting to the terminated manager to the terminated manager's manager, the parameter &pQkFn in the HR_TERMINATION_SS function must be set to Y.

Complete the following steps:

  1. Log in to the System Administrator responsibility.

  2. Navigate to the Function window.

  3. Search for the HR_TERMINATION_SS function.

  4. Click the Form tab.

  5. Change the "Parameters" value to the following:

    pAMETranType=SSHRMS&pAMEAppId=800&pProcessName=HR_QK_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC&pItemType=HRSSA&pCalledFrom=HR_TERMINATION_SS&pEffectiveDate=&pQkFn=Y

When enterprises use the Quick Termination process, they can set the HR: No Supervisor Error or Warning profile option. This profile option determines the processing behavior of the application when users initiate termination transactions of employees who are managers but do not have a supervisor. If the profile option value is set to Error, then the application does not allow the user to proceed with the termination transaction of a manager who does not have a supervisor. If the profile option value is set to Warning, then the application allows the user to proceed with the termination transaction of a manager who does not have a supervisor. However, as the terminated manager does not have a supervisor the application does not reassign the terminated manager's subordinate workers. In such cases, the HR administrator must assign a supervisor to the subordinate workers using the Oracle HRMS Assignment window.

If you want to use the Quick Termination process, then you must change the name of process in the predefined or custom HR_TERMINATION_SS function.

For example, by default, the parameters of the predefined HR_TERMINATION_SS function are:

pAMETranType=SSHRMS&pAMEAppId=800&pProcessName=HR_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC&pItemType=HRSSA&pCalledFrom=HR_TERMINATION_SS&pEffectiveDate=

The process that is used in the predefined function is the HR_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC, which is a standard Termination process

To use the Quick Change Hours process, change the value of the pProcessName parameter as pProcessName= HR_QK_TERMINATION_JSP_PRC.

If the profile option value is set to Error, then the application does not allow the user to proceed with the termination transaction of a manager who does not have a supervisor. If the profile option value is set to Warning, then the application allows the user to proceed with the termination transaction of a manager who does not have a supervisor. However, as the terminated manager does not have a supervisor the application does not reassign the terminated manager's subordinate workers. In such cases, the HR administrator must assign a supervisor to the subordinate workers using the Oracle HRMS Assignment window.

Document Categories and Types

Overview of Document Categories and Types

The Documents of Record functionality enables you to create and maintain documents, such as medical certificates, visas, and licenses, in Oracle HRMS. These documents belong to document categories (for example, visa information), subcategories (for example, work visa or business visa), and types (for example, US H1, US H2). The following table provides additional examples:

Examples of Document Categories, Subcategories, and Types
Document Category Document Subcategory Document Type
Absence Information Sickness Doctor Certificate
  Maternity Hospital Certificate
Personal Information General Birth Certificate
  General Driver's License
Educational Information Degree Certificate Bachelor of Science
  Degree Certificate Master of Science

Oracle provides some standard document types. However you can also create your own document categories, subcategories, and types to suit the particular requirements of your enterprise.

See: Creating Document Categories, Subcategories, and Types

See also: Documents of Record for information on using the Documents of Record function in SSHR.

Creating Document Categories, Subcategories, and Types

Although Oracle provides several document categories, subcategories, and types for use with the Documents of Record functionality, you may need to create new objects to match your specific business requirements. Use the following process to create these objects.

  1. To create a new document category, use the Application Utilities Lookups window and the DOCUMENT_CATEGORY lookup type. Enter the name of the new document category in the lookup code region, for example, Professional Information.

    See: Adding Lookup Types and Values, Oracle HRMS Configuring. Reporting, and System Administration Guide

  2. To create a new document subcategory, use the User Types and Statuses window:

    1. Query the DOCUMENT_CATEGORY lookup in the Name field.

    2. Enter the document category, for example, Professional Information, in the System Type column.

    3. Enter the required subcategories in the Code column, for example, Diploma, Certificate, Award.

    See: Creating User Types and Statuses, Oracle HRMS Configuring, Reporting, and System Administration Guide

  3. To create new document types, run the Register Document Types (EITs) process.

    See: Running the Register Document Types Process

  4. When you have created your document types, you must associate them with a responsibility in the Information Types Security window (in the same way as you associate Extra Information Types with a responsibility).

    See: Setting Up Extra Information Types for a Responsibility, Oracle HRMS Configuring, Reporting, and System Administration Guide

    For more information on document categories and types, see: Overview of Document Categories and Types

Running the Register Document Types (EITs) Process

Use this process to create new document types for the Documents of Record functionality.

See: Overview of Document Categories and Types

Run this process from the Submit Requests window.

To run the Register Document Types (EITs) process

  1. In the Name field, select Register Document Types (EITs).

    The Parameters window appears.

  2. In the Document Type field, enter a unique name for the new document type.

    Note: When the process runs, the application creates an internal name for the document type. The internal name is the same as the document type name and does not change, even if you subsequently change the document type name, for example, for translation. The internal name is used as the flexfield context.

  3. In the Multiple Rows field, specify whether multiple occurrences of the same document type can exist. For example, for a birth certificate, the value would be No.

  4. Select the country to which the document is applicable. You can leave the Country Code field blank to create a globally applicable document, for example, a passport document.

  5. Enter the Category Code (mandatory) and Sub Category Code (optional).

    See: Overview of Document Categories and Types

  6. Specify whether authorization is required for the new document type.

  7. Click Submit.

Configurable Flexfields

Suitability Matching uses no configurable flexfields.

Profile Options

The three profile options control the matching options available to each category of user: employee, manager, and HR professional. Each of the values is a menu name. If you want to change the options available to a given user (if you want to hide the succession options from everyone, for example), you can clone a menu and replace the profile value with the name of your new menu. Note that these menus differ in kind and structure from the user menus listed above.

The following table describes the profile options.

Configuring Recruitment Modules

Configuring Applicant Hire and Rehire, Hire or Placement, Place Contingent Worker Processes

These processes provide you with the ability to hire employees or bring contingent workers into your enterprise, but if you want to configure them to fit your particular business needs, you can chain any of the following modules into the process:

When creating a chained process, the Hire Details, Applicant Search, or Place Contingent Worker page must be the first page, followed by the Personal Information page. Then you can add the Person EIT, Assignment EIT, or the Assignment pages. Following this, any of the remaining pages can be included.

The following table gives a list of the delivered chained processes and what modules are included in them.

Recruitment Chained Processes:

Hire or Placement Personal Information, Assignment, Employee or Contingent Worker Pay, Change Manager
Contingent Worker Placement Personal Information, Assignment, Employee or Contingent Worker Pay, Change Manager
French Hire Personal Information, Assignment, Other Employment Information, Work Schedule, Assignment EIT, Employee or Contingent Worker Pay

Note: These processes are delivered with function level personalizations. If you make a copy either of them in order to make your own changes you will lose these delivered personalizations.

See: Function-level Personalizations

Configurable Profile Options

HR: Cross Business Group Site, Responsibility Yes/No No
HR: Propagate Data Changes Site Yes/No No
HR: Self Service Hire and Placement Default Site, Application, Responsibility, User Yes/No Yes
HR: Base Salary Required Site Yes/No Null

HR:Cross Business Group

Specifies whether people from business groups other than your own can be retrieved in the Search Applicant page.

HR:Propagate Data Changes

You use this profile option to control the synchronization of your person records where you have multiple records for one person, for example if a person has local records in two different countries

If you want changes made in one business group to be propagated throughout all business groups, then set this profile option to Yes.

Note: You can only propagate changes to business groups in which your security profile allows you to make updates.

For more information see: Person Record Synchronization, Oracle HRMS Enterprise and Workforce Management Guide

HR: Self Service Hire and Placement Default

Specifies whether values for the new person record should be defaulted or not.

For the Hire or Placement function, if you set the profile to Yes, the application defaults the Organization value based on the primary assignment, as of the system date, of the person logged in. The application also defaults the following values, but they do not apply to contingent worker placement:

The supervisor for the new person defaults to the person logged in.

For both Hire and Applicant Hire and Rehire, this profile also controls which person type is defaulted.

HR: Base Salary Required

See: Pay Rate.

For more information see: User Profiles, Oracle HRMS Configuring, Reporting, and System Administration Guide

Further Configuration Steps

Warning: Hire or Placement functionality uses code 'NEWH' under lookup_type 'PROPOSAL_REASON' to render the PayRate page. Do not configure this code, either by disabling the code or by disabling the localization the Hire or Placement process is running. If you do so, the Hire functionality will break.
