Data Dictionary of Time Attributes

The data dictionary is the place with all possible attributes regardless of the source, such as Oracle Absence Management Cloud or Oracle Global Payroll Cloud.

• It includes the primary time attributes for projects, payroll, and absence time. You can load more payroll and absence time attributes, and your own custom attributes.

• It contains metadata that data sources and time consumers use to present time data in a meaningful way. Time consumers also use it to process time data appropriately. Here are examples of the metadata:

  • What attributes to store, such as storing the configured display names of time attributes and attribute values as alternate names
  • Where the repository physically keeps the attributes
  • How to verify valid values
