Identify and Update Assignments for ACA Reporting

As part of your ACA reporting, you must regularly review your employees' eligibility and update their assignments appropriately.

Beforeyou begin

Be sure you have completed all ACA reporting configuration steps. For further info, see Configure for Affordable Care Act Reporting in the Help Center.

If this is your first reporting year

If you implemented Oracle Cloud during this reporting year, make sure your employees' hours worked balances for the entire year are available to the ACA reporting processes. For employees experiencing an eligibility change during the reporting year, you must also have their hours worked balances for the prior year.

The payroll process automatically captures this info during the payroll run, but you must make sure you uploaded the legacy hours-worked data before your implementation.

  1. Perform a balance initialization for the ACA Employee Eligible Hours balance as of the first month of the lookback period.

    For further info, see Oracle Cloud Human Capital Management for the United States: Balance Initialization (1912298.1) on My Oracle Support.

  2. Perform balance adjustments for the subsequent months before your first Oracle Cloud payroll run.

    For further info, see Oracle Cloud Human Capital Management for the United States: Balance Adjustments (1600728.1) on My Oracle Support.

Note: You don't specify a balance dimension. Elements are loaded as of a specific date during the balance initialization and adjustments.
