Example of Loading Person Habits

Use the Person Habits business object to load details of habits and disability statuses of employees in bulk using HCM Data Loader.

Preparing to Load Person Habits

Before you can load person habits, you must:

  • Verify that the objects referenced by Person Habits exists in the target environment. If they do not exist, the load will fail.

  • Create electable choices on the basis of eligibility rules. Lack of eligibility causes a data roll back for corresponding employees. To verify whether your electable choices follow eligibility rules, use random checks based on eligibility criteria.

Generating the .dat File

This example PersonHabits.dat file loads the person habits for an employee who is a full time student, smokes and is registered as disabled.
