B Frequently Asked Questions

The Oracle Fusion HCM AnalyticsFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs) provide answers to the most commonly asked questions about provide solutions to improve your analytics experience.

Can I bring additional data security-related objects from Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications into Fusion Data Intelligence to set up custom data security in Fusion Data Intelligence?

On the Console, under Applications, in Human Capital Management, when you create a pipeline for the Security Configuration Data functional area in the HCM Security Configurations offering, Fusion Data Intelligence gets additional data from Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications (Cloud HCM). You can set up custom data security leveraging this new data.

This pipeline brings data from these Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications (Cloud HCM) objects and populates these tables in Fusion Data Intelligence:
Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Object Corresponding Fusion Data Intelligence Table
Area of Responsibility DW_ASG_RESPONSIBILITY_D
Department hierarchy row flattened details DW_DEPARTMENT_RF_DH
Organization hierarchy row flattened details DW_ORGANIZATION_RF_DH
Tree Version Details (required for Department Hierarchy and Organization Hierarchy based security configurations) DW_TREE_VERSION_D
  1. Sign in to your service.

  3. In the Navigator menu, click Console.
  4. On the Console, click Data Configuration under Application Administration.
  5. On the Data Configuration page, click Human Capital Management.
  6. On the service page, click Create, select HCM Security Configurations in Offering, select Security Configuration Data in Functional Area, and then click Next.

  7. Review the parameters and click one of the options:
    • Cancel: To cancel the data pipeline for the functional area.
    • Save: To save the data pipeline for the functional area but not activate it.
    • Activate: To schedule when to run the data pipeline for the functional area. See Activate a Data Pipeline for a Functional Area.

Can I stop the data pipeline from rejecting data inconsistencies or log data inconsistencies?

Yes, you can stop the data pipeline from rejecting data inconsistencies or log data inconsistencies by enabling or disabling the Disable HCM Data Consistencies and Logging preview feature. See Features Available for Preview.

By default, the data pipeline rejects all inconsistent source data and doesn't load such data. When you enable this feature, Fusion HCM Analytics doesn't log the inconsistent data and doesn't reject such data during loading. In order to load records identified as inconsistent records in the source, you must reset all the Fusion HCM Analytics functional areas. When you disable this feature, Fusion HCM Analytics reverts the data pipeline to the default behavior of rejecting inconsistent source data. You must reset the data pipeline for the currently enabled Fusion HCM Analytics functional areas in order to start rejecting all inconsistent records existing in the source.

How do I enable easy data access to people leaders such as line managers?

As a security administrator, you can provide data access to people leaders such as line managers. See Enable Easy Data Access to People Leaders .

How do I bring correct HCM Work relationship from Fusion to FDI when it is cancelled in Fusion?

When you cancel a Work Relationship, all assignment information is deleted in Fusion Applications. Deleting the entire assignment isn't supported in a warehouse incremental refresh. To reflect the deleted transaction in the warehouse, reset the Workforce Management functional area.

What happens when there are multiple events on the same date for a worker assignment?

If there are multiple events on the same date in a Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications worker assignment, then the last event is reflected for the Assignment event. To report on assignment events such as Facts - Workforce Events, include "like" for the Assignment Event Headcount along with Workforce Event Details and Common Dimension to get further details about assignment events.

What is the most restrictive and least restrictive data access? How do I change the prebuilt behaviour from most restrictive to least restrictive?

In Most Restrictive data access scenario, when you assign a user multiple data roles, Oracle Fusion HCM Analytics always limits access to the most common data set amongst all different data roles assigned to the user. For example, if a user has both HCM View All Data Security and HR Line Manager Data Security data roles, the user gets access to only the Line Manager's supervisory organization, which is the smaller or more specific access. In the Least Restrictive data access scenario, the system gives the broadest level of access when a user has multiple roles assigned. When least restrictive access applies, the user gets the widest access from all their assigned roles. For example, if a user has both HCM View All Data Security and Custom Location Data Security data roles, the user gets access to everything allowed by both of the roles, including all HCM data and Custom Location Data Security.

If you've created any custom data role, for example for AOR based data security and in that data role if you've used the functional group same as the prebuilt line manager data role, then you must make the FUNCTIONAL GROUP as blank in the custom AOR data role after changing the data access rule to Least Restrictive access. This ensures to grant least restrictive data access between the prebuilt line manager and custom AOR data role.

By default, the prebuilt data roles exhibit the most restrictive behavior. To change it to the least restrictive behavior, follow the steps in Specify Data Access Rules.

Why does the monthly breakdown show an inaccurate head count value?

You may notice discrepancies in the monthly breakdown of headcount values within the Headcount by Workertype dashboard. If backdated transactions are run on worker assignments, the records won't be available in the daily snapshot because the date's already passed. Any update to the FTE or manager for a worker from a date earlier than the current date won't be reflected in the subject area at a later date because the daily snapshot from the earlier date's already loaded into the system.

To include backdated transactions in the daily snapshot, refresh the Workforce Management functional area so the updates from the earlier date are included in the snapshot. See Refresh a Data Pipeline for a Functional Area.

Why is the Profile Matching Subject Area activation failing with Prediction Application Internal Error profile_matching: failure?

For the Profile Matching functional area to work as expected, you need to have at least one job model profile with data set up in the Oracle Cloud HCM, and at least one Person Profile with skills and qualifications available in Oracle Cloud HCM.
