Configure the HR Help Desk UI Using Application Composer

Use Application Composer to configure and activate the HR Help Desk UI for your organization.

For example, the service request page contains a field that you probably may not use for HR Help Desk, such as the serial number field. By configuring the UI in Application Composer, you can hide fields that aren't relevant to your HR Help Desk.

You must first copy the standard layout to create the HR Help Desk layouts. After creating the HR Help Desk layout, you can configure and activate the pages. You can create HR Help Desk layouts from the standard layouts of the following layouts:

  • Creation Page Layouts

  • Details Page Layouts

  • Service Request Spotlight Region

  1. Sign in to Oracle HCM Cloud applications as an HCM Administrator.

  2. Ensure you're working in a sandbox.

    • Any fields related to Assets

    • Loyalty Member

    • Partner

    On the other hand, the Affected Party field is available and specifically relates to HR Help Desk. It isn't visible by default, and must be added using Application Composer.
