When and Why: Exceptions and Adaptations

Exceptions

This table lists the rules that can't be currently implemented for the When and Why object:

Serial Number	Rule	Rule Type	Actions Impacted	Sections Impacted	Fields Impacted	Comments
1	Object Defaulting, Field Validation, and Field Modification rule types not supported.	Object Defaulting, Field Validation, and Field Modification.	All	When and Why	All	You may not for example, default the action reason as soon as the When and Why regions are presented.
2	Warnings on termination on exit section only.	Field Modification	Termination	When and Why	Action Reason	Warnings related to termination when you exit the When and Why section are being fixed.
3	Not in Request Position Change, Request New Position, Job and Grade Management flows.	Object Validation	Position Change, Request New Position	When and Why	All	The use of this object as part of certain actions aren't yet supported due to either of these reasons: The primary subsequent objects involved (for example, job) in these actions aren't supported. The primary subsequent objects (for example, position) are supported. See the impacted responsive flows to see which actions are supported.
4	Cannot validate proposed hire date in offer	Object Validation	Create Offer	When and Why	Offer Date	Action date isn't equal to offer date; support for this is coming in an upcoming release through an entirely different object.
5	Cannot differentiate between launch from Transfer quick action and transfer option of Local and Global Transfer quick action.	Object Validation	All	When and Why	All	The action type code fetched either from the action type code of the Action Occurrences object or from hcmParams will indicate transfer. This happens if either the action is launched from the Transfer quick action or from the Local and Global Transfer quick action and there is no change in legislation code. Oracle is reviewing this for a possible fix.
6	Cannot differentiate between Me, My Team, and My Client Groups (or any other Home screen tabs) when same action is launched from different tabs.	Object Validation	All	When and Why	All	You can use the logged in user role as proxy, but there will be no way of differentiating between say, an HR specialist performing a given action on another person or themselves. Oracle is reviewing this for a possible solution.
