Associate Legal Employers with Locations

You can associate multiple legal employers with a location. This enables filtering locations by legal employer on pages that have implemented this feature. You use the Legal Employers Operating At This Location extensible flexfield (EFF) context for the legal employer - location association.

These are some key points to note:

  • A location must have at least one associated legal employer to filter the location by legal employer.

  • You can associate multiple legal employers operating at a location, but can't associate the same legal employer twice with a location.

  • You can associate the same legal employer with different locations.

  • You can delete the legal employer - location association.

  • The legal employer - location mapping is copied when you duplicate a location.

  • You can associate legal employers when creating, updating, or correcting a location.

  • The legal employer list of values displays all active and inactive legal employers configured. There isn't any filtering for only active legal employers. Similarly, there is no filtering of legal employers by matching the legal employer country with the location address country.

  • Legal employers are listed in the ascending order of legal employer name.

  • Locations are first filtered based on the set. And thereafter, if an association exists, they're filtered based on the legal employers.

In this example, Vision Enterprise has 3 legal employers Vision Corporation, Vision US, and Vision Consulting operating at multiple locations in the US. You want to filter locations from where Vision Corporation is operating.
