HCM Abstract Roles

Oracle HCM Cloud delivers several abstract roles, including:

• Employee
• Contingent Worker
• Line Manager

These roles provide access to common functionalities across Oracle Cloud Applications such as entering expense reports, purchase requisitions, as well as advanced workforce management capabilities such as goal management, performance management suitable for workers, contingent workers, and managers.

Many of the privileges that provide access to these features may also impact subscription usage. Privileges that are assigned but remain unused can still account for subscription consumption.

The recommended process is to always make a copy of these predefined roles, remove the privileges you don't need, and assign only the required privileges.
