In Oracle HRMS, the organizations you set up to represent your enterprise as an employer are the Business Group, and in the US and Canada, one or more GREs within the Business Group.
Below this level, you represent the groupings in which employees work, such as branches, departments or sections, by means of internal organizations. To enable the assignment of employees to an internal organization, you classify it as an HR Organization.
Korea users onlyYou must also define an organization classification called Business Place. You assign your employees to the business place in Korea, and use this to store establishment information such as business registration number, health insurance number, and address.
You also maintain information in the system about various types of external organizations relevant to human resources and payroll management and administration. These can include training vendors, tax offices, benefits carriers, or certification bodies.
External organizations can appear in your organization hierarchies together with internal organizations and are defined in the same way.
Note: You can never assign employees to external organizations, even those classified as HR Organizations.
Whenever you create an organization you have to give it a classification, such as Business Group or HR Organization. The classification you give to an organization defines its purpose and functionality within Oracle HRMS.
Selecting a classification enables you to set up additional information about your organization. The classification you enter controls the additional information you can set up.
Classification are predefined, and each Oracle Product group is installed with the classifications and information types relevant to their application. For example, Oracle Financials has different classifications from Oracle HRMS.
Note: Oracle HRMS enables you to install your own additional information types for classifications.
Organization classifications define the purpose of an organization and its functionality within Oracle HRMS. The classifications you assign to an organization control the additional information you can set up at the organization level. The Configuration Workbench automatically assigns the appropriate classifications to the organizations it creates.

To create an organization
Navigate to the Organization window and click New to create a new organization.
Note: For information about querying existing organizations, see: Finding an Organization
Enter a name for your organization in the Name field. A check is performed to see if organizations with the same name already exist.
All Oracle applications you install share the information entered in the Organization window. Therefore organization names must be unique within a business group, and business group names must be unique across your applications network.
You can create two organizations with the same name in different business groups but this can cause confusion later, if the HR: Cross business group profile option is set to Yes and you decide to share certain information across all business groups. If you decide to create two organizations with the same name, be sure that this will not cause you problems in the future.
Optionally, select an organization type in the Type field.
Organization types do not classify your organization, you use them for reporting purposes only. The type may identify the function an organization performs, such as Administration or Service, or the level of each organization in your enterprise, such as Division, Department or Cost Center. You create the organization types you require by entering values for the Lookup Type ORG_TYPE.
Enter a start date in the From field. This should be early enough to include any historical information you need to enter.

This is because the system uses the location of the organization of the employee's primary assignment to determine employee work locations for tax purposes. This does not apply to GREs, because the assignment to a GRE exists in addition to the assignment to an organization.
India only: You can define an income tax organization and enter its location details. You can then select this organization at the GRE/Legal Entity Income Tax Office.
Note: If you are an Oracle Inventory user, then you must not assign a location to more than one organization classified as an Inventory Organization.

Oracle HRMS enables you to record medical assessments, disability information, and work incidents for the people in your enterprise. It also enables you to link this information together. For example, if a medical assessment is required as the result of a work accident, and that assessment then diagnoses a disability in the person, you could relate these records to one another.
Note: The Medical assessments, disabilities and work incidents functionality may not be used by your localization.
The Medical Assessment window enables you to enter information about the medical assessments (consultations) provided to the people in your enterprise. For example, you can record:
When the assessment took place, and the organization and person who performed it.
The result of the assessment, for example, if a disability was identified.
If the purpose of the assessment is to evaluate a particular disability, whether the person is considered fit for work.
Any work incident that was the reason for this assessment.
A person can have multiple medical assessment records. For example, a person may have a recruitment medical and several annual medicals.
Using the datetracked Disabilities window, you can enter information about a person's disabilities. For example, you can record:
The nature and severity of the disability
The full-time equivalent that this person represents towards your enterprise's quota of disabled employees
The details of the registration of this disability with an official organization
Any work incident that was the cause of this disability
The medical assessment that first identified this disability.
A person can have multiple disability records. Each disability can be linked to one work incident and to one medical assessment that diagnosed (or identified) the condition. Once a disability has been diagnosed and recorded, you can link it to multiple assessments that evaluate the disability.
Oracle HRMS enables you to record work incidents, for example, accidents, that involve the people in your enterprise. Work incidents are incidents that occur:
at work
on the way to or from work
in other circumstances that are defined as work-related by your enterprise.
Using the Work Incidents window, you can record:
The details of the incident, for example, when and where it occurred.
The health and safety official and/or representative body that were notified of the incident
Medical details, such as any injury occurred, treatment given, and medical organizations involved
Whether any compensation was paid
Whether this person was absent as a result of the incident
The job the person was doing when the incident occurred
A person can have multiple work incident records.
The graphic illustrates the relationship between the medical assessment, disability and work incident tasks. It shows the full process that you could follow if you wanted to record:
A work incident that occurred
The medical assessment that was required as a result of the work incident
The disability record that was required as a result of a "Disability" result in the medical assessment
The subsequent "Disability type" medical assessments that were required to evaluate the disability on a regular basis
The "Start" boxes show the points at which you can start the process, depending on the task you need to perform.
