About Configuring Domains and Member Mappings for Employment Dimension

The Employment Dimension has a number of conformed domains which are used in many of the HCM metrics. These domains must be configured correctly for the reports to contain accurate information.

Optional or Mandatory

This task is optional, however the default configuration might not adequately reflect the OLTP setup, so this should be reviewed to ensure the reports are accurate.

Applies to

All sources.

Task description in detail

Configure the domain mappings related to the Employment Dimension. The most important one of these, as it is used by many metrics, is the mapping to worker type and subtype. These are designed as a hierarchy, where worker types from different systems can be conformed onto a single classification. Worker Type is primarily used to distinguish between Employees and Contingent Workers, and Worker Subtype gives a more detailed breakdown within each type.

The domain mapping for Worker Type is derived from the source domain "System Worker Type and User Worker Type". This is derived differently for each source system, and examples are given below for each.

Example for E-Business Suite

The System Worker Type and User Worker Type domain is based on:

  • System Person Type

  • User Person Type

Example Requirements: By default contingent workers are all grouped together. Add a sub-type of contingent workers for Interns, identified by the corresponding User Person Type.

Example Implementation:

Add the following mappings to the domain map System Worker Type and User Worker Type -> Worker Subtype:
CWK~INTERN -> CONTINGENT_INTERN
The remaining definition for regular contingent workers is already seeded so no change required.

The table shows how the resulting domain mappings will look, with rows 1 and 2 showing the seeded domain mappings:

Source Member Code Column 1 Member Code Column 2 Member Code Target Member Code

CWK~__ANY__

CWK

__ANY__

CONTINGENT_CONTINGENT

EMP~__ANY__

EMP

__ANY__

EMPLOYEE_REGULAR

CWK~INTERN

CWK

INTERN

CONTINGENT_INTERN

Multiple match is allowed, for example a contingent worker with person type "Intern" would match the mapping to either CONTINGENT_CONTINGENT or CONTINGENT_INTERN. The exact match on User Person Type takes precedence over "any" type, so the result would be CONTINGENT_INTERN.

Example for Peoplesoft

The System Worker Type and User Worker Type domain is based on:

  • Organizational Relationship

  • Person of Interest (POI) Type

Example Requirements: By default, contingent workers are grouped together. Add a sub-type of contingent workers for Interns, identified by the corresponding POI Type.

Example Implementation:

Add the following mappings to the domain map System Worker Type and User Worker Type -> Worker Subtype:

CWR~INT -> CONTINGENT_INTERN

The remaining definition for regular contingent workers is already seeded so no change is required.

The table shows how the resulting domain mappings will look, with rows 1 to 3 showing the seeded domain mappings:

Source Member Code Column 1 Member Code Column 2 Member Code Target Member Code

CWR~__ANY__

CWR

__ANY__

CONTINGENT_CONTRACTOR

EMP~__ANY__

EMP

__ANY__

EMPLOYEE_REGULAR

POI~__ANY__

POI

__ANY__

NONWORKER

CWR~INT

CWR

INT

CONTINGENT_INTERN

Multiple match is allowed, for example a contingent worker with POI Type 'Intern' would match the mapping to either CONTINGENT_CONTRACTOR or CONTINGENT_INTERN. The exact match on POI Type takes precedence over 'any' POI Type, therefore the result would be CONTINGENT_INTERN.

Example for Fusion

The setup in Fusion is exactly the same as for E-Business Suite.
