Set Up Public Worker Access

You can configure access for public workers using the Configure Public Workers Access page under Workforce Structures under My Client Groups tab.

This page can now be used to determine which public workers are returned when using Oracle Search. For example, when using Connections, you’re initially prompted for the person’s name whose information you’re looking for. By configuring Public Worker Access, you can now create a filter that lets you to hide sensitive or non-public workers by user-defined criteria, such as job code, position, business units, and other criteria. This filter is also applied to the global search and public worker LOVs that use Oracle Search, including Human Capital Management, Procurement, Supply Chain Management, and so on.

You can restrict Public Worker Access based on these scenarios.

1. All workers in the enterprise, but exclude certain people based on criteria;
2. Workers from the user’s own legal employer;
3. Workers from the user’s own business unit; and
4. Workers based on other inclusion criteria.

By default, Status is a read-only field and is determined based on the Enable Public Worker Access Using Security Filters Enabled profile option. If the profile option is disabled, filtering won’t happen and you’ll see all workers.

When selecting which workers to include you can also specify the users you want to exclude. For example, when selecting workers from the user’s legal employer, you can exclude people from a business unit.

With the Workers in a user’s legal employer option, you can configure multiple criteria and values to exclude, except for legal employer. An error appears if you choose a legal employer as this choice conflicts with the public workers inclusion selection.

With the Workers in a user’s business unit option, you can configure multiple criteria and values to exclude, except for business unit. An error appears if you choose Business unit as this choice conflicts with the public workers inclusion selection.

Public workers LOV will list all workers in the signed-in user’s business units that aren't in a grade of EXTS_GRADE, aren't in CEO or CFO jobs, and aren’t consultants or pending workers. Additionally, Larry Benson is identified as a sensitive person, so he will also be filtered out.

With the Other inclusion criteria option, you can configure multiple criteria and values to include and exclude.

Access

To use this feature, you need this job role name and code:

• IT Security Manager (ORA_FND_IT_SECURITY_MANAGER_JOB)

If you've created a custom IT Security Manager job role, then you'll need to add the Configure Public Worker Access function privilege.
