Understanding External Survey Data

External survey data is workforce-related data that you obtain from third-party survey providers (such as market compensation data from compensation surveys). This chapter discusses how to import external survey data from flat files into data warehouse tables using the IBM WebSphere DataStage ETL tool.

Reviewing Sources of External Survey Data

Workforce analytic applications are designed to integrate data from three main types of external surveys:

Compensation surveys containing market compensation data, which you use in the modules within Workforce Rewards.
Benchmark surveys containing workforce-related metrics, which you can use with analysis templates in HCM Warehouse.
Employee surveys containing employee satisfaction and exit survey results, which you can use in the rules defined within Workforce Rewards.

Note. You can import, by ETL, external data for Workforce Planning, such as employee competency data, competency dictionaries, skills inventories, standard proficiency ratings, job profiles, and so on. To do this, you must create your own flat files and ETL jobs. Our data model supports this, and you will have access to IBM WebSphere DataStage to create the jobs and run the ETLs.

Reviewing External Survey Tables and ETL Setup

The external survey data setup and import process is similar for each type of survey data. Oracle delivers the tools to enable you to import external survey data into EPM.

Oracle has worked closely with third-party survey providers to develop the file definitions, ETL jobs, and data warehouse tables that are delivered with Workforce Analytics. Oracle designed the delivered file definitions, ETL jobs, and data warehouse tables to work efficiently and seamlessly together.

This section discusses how to:

Review the data warehouse tables and ETL jobs.
Review the survey file definitions.

Reviewing the Data Warehouse Tables and ETL Jobs

Before you begin, take some time to plan your approach and evaluate your external survey data needs.

Use the PeopleTools Application Designer to review the data warehouse tables that are delivered with EPM. Determine how to structure your system to best fit the needs of your organization.

Evaluate the ETL jobs that are delivered and determine whether they are properly configured to meet the needs of your organization.

Warning! Any changes that you make to the delivered data warehouse tables have the potential to affect Application Engine processes and PeopleCode processing throughout the system. Evaluate and make these types of changes very carefully.

Reviewing the Survey File Definitions

Prior to ETL processing, you must ensure that your external survey data is in a standard flat file format to ensure detailed and accurate mapping to the data warehouse tables. In Workforce Analytics, Oracle delivers standard file definitions for the following external survey elements:

Author file (common to all types of surveys).
Dimension file (compensation survey and benchmark survey).
Survey Instance file (common to all types of surveys).
Compensation Survey file.
Benchmark Survey file.
Employee Survey file.

The standard file definitions are provided in the tables at the end of this chapter, in the section Understanding the External Survey Flat File Definitions.

To use the ETL jobs that Oracle delivers, you must work with your survey provider to ensure that you receive your survey data in files meeting these definitions. This includes ensuring the proper ordering of the fields and using a comma-delimited *.csv or *.txt, flat file format. A *.csv format file is recommended and preferred. Arrange to receive separate survey data flat files for each of the elements in the previous list. For compensation surveys, arrange to obtain author, survey instance, dimensions, and compensation survey files from the provider. For benchmark surveys, arrange to obtain author, survey instance, dimensions, and benchmark survey files from the provider. For employee surveys, arrange to obtain author, survey instance, and employee survey files from the provider.

If the external survey data that you receive is from a provider whose data doesn't fit these file definitions, then you have several options:

Work with your current survey provider to make sure that you receive the survey data in a format that meets these file definitions.
Work with a different survey provider who delivers the survey data in a format that meets these file definitions.
Manipulate the survey data that you receive from your provider to change it into a format that meets these file definitions.
Use our file definitions and delivered ETL jobs as templates, and modify them to suit your needs.

Viewing and Editing the Survey Data Warehouse Tables

After you have run the appropriate ETL jobs and imported your data into the Operational Warehouse - Enriched (OWE) tables, you can view and edit the data in the tables online.

Note. The following table lists pages used to view and edit survey data in the data warehouse tables. Because these pages are basic setup pages and the fields for the underlying tables are shown in the flat file definitions at the end of this chapter, this chapter doesn't discuss these pages in detail here.

Pages Used to View and Edit the Survey Data Warehouse Tables

Completing Survey Mapping Definitions

To map survey data, use the WA_MAP_TREE_TBL.GBL, WA_JOB_MAP_DFN.GBL, WA_COMP_MAP_DFN.GBL, WA_GEO_MAP_DFN.GBL, WA_IND_MAP_DFN.GBL, WA_FIN_MAP_DFN.GBL, and WA_UNIT_MAP_DFN.GBL components.

This section provides an overview of survey mapping definitions and discusses how to:

Set up workforce trees.
Map job codes.
Map survey compensation codes.
Map geography IDs.
Map industry codes.
Map financial codes.
Map unit codes.

Understanding Survey Mapping Definitions

When you run the setup batch for salary surveys and benchmark surveys, the system partially populates the following OWE mapping tables: WA_COMP_MAP_DFN, WA_FIN_MAP_DFN, WA_GEO_MAP_DFN, WA_IND_MAP_DFN, WA_JOB_MAP_DFN, and WA_UNIT_MAP_DFN. Your next task is to complete the data mapping definitions using the access pages for these tables. The mapping definitions are needed to prepare for your second set of ETLs. In this step you map survey data to previously defined EPM dimensions (JOB, COMPENSATION, GEOGRAPHY, INDUSTRY, FINANCIAL, and UNIT) and trees (JOBCODE, COMPCODE, GEOGRAPHY, INDUSTRY, FINCODE, and UNITCODE).

Setting Up Workforce Trees

Access the Workforce Trees page (Workforce Analytics, Workforce Analytics Setup, Setup Workforce Trees, Workforce Trees).

Note. This page has SetID as a key. When you specify a default tree on this page for use with a Workforce Rewards application, the tree mapping value must remain constant. That is, the tree mapping must remain unchanged from the start of your market compensation survey import through your use of the survey data in the Workforce Rewards business process modules.

Job Code Tree, Compensation Code Tree, Geography Tree, Organization Tree, Account Tree, Position Tree, and Business Unit Tree	These trees are used in one or more of the workforce analytic applications. Prompt values are from the PF_METATREE_TBL table. This ensures that only those trees that have tree metadata are available to map.
Industry Tree, Financial Code Tree, and Unit Code Tree	These trees are used in the Workforce Rewards application. Prompt values are from the WA_INDTREE_VW, WA_FINCODE_VW, and WA_UNITCODE_VW tables, respectively.
Competency Tree	This tree is used in the Workforce Planning application. Prompt values are from the WA_CMPT_TREE_VW table.

Reviewing the External Survey Flat File Definitions

This section provides an overview of external survey flat file definitions and discusses how to:

Review the author file definition.
Review the dimension file definition.
Review the survey instance file definition.
Review the compensation survey file definition.
Review the benchmark survey file definition.
Review the employee survey file definition.
Review the valid values for selected fields in the file definitions.

Understanding External Survey Flat File Definitions

This section discusses the external survey flat file definitions that you use to work with your survey providers. Work with your providers to ensure that the survey data you receive from them fits the format specified in these file definitions. The end of this section provides lists of the valid values for selected fields in the file definitions that must use specified valid values.

Note. Wherever fields in the file definitions are designated as optional, Oracle recommends that you enter data in those fields. If you don't enter data in the optional fields, the system displays error messages when you run the ETL job sequencers, and data is not supplied in those fields in the data warehouse tables.

Reviewing the Author File Definition

The following table contains the Author flat file definition.

Note. You need the Author file when you have new author identification information. That is, you need it only when the survey provider data is new or has changed.

Field Name	Field Type / Length / Format	Valid Values	Required or Optional	Target Warehouse Tables
WA_AUTHOR_ID	Character / 10		R	WA_AUTHOR_R00.WA_AUTHOR_ID

Reviewing the Dimension File Definition

The following table contains the Dimension flat file definition. With respect to the last two columns, please note the following:

If WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE = C, then the target record is WA_SUR_COMP_D00.
If WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE = F, then the target record is WA_SUR_FIN_D00.
If WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE = G, then the target record is WA_SUR_GEO_D00.
If WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE = I, then the target record is WA_SUR_IND_D00.
If WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE = J, then the target record is WA_SUR_JOB_D00.
If WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE = U, then the target record is WA_SUR_UNIT_D00.

Note. You need the Dimension file when you have a new or changed dimension information. The WA_AUTHOR_ID in the Dimension file must be a valid author identification in the Author file definition.

Field Name	Field Type / Length / Format	Valid Values	Required or Optional	Target Warehouse Tables	Comments
WA_AUTHOR_ID	Character / 10		R	Target record is WA_AUTHOR_ID
WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE	Character / 1	Yes	R	Target record is *_CD	The '*' symbol could be G for Geography ID, J for Job Code, F for Financial Code, and so on.
WA_SUR_CODE	Character / 10		R	None	Driver for Target Record ETL mapping. These are the actual Geography, Compensation, Job Codes depending upon the WA_SUR_DIM_TYPE.
EFFDT	Date / 8 / MMDDYYYY		R	Target record is EFFDT
