Setting Up the HCM Security Framework for Appropriate Access to Persons and Pay Elements Across an Enterprise

This section describes how to set up Labor Distribution Administrator or Labor Distribution Manager roles for use with the Person area of responsibility in HCM.

Note: The (seeded or custom) roles can be assigned any one of the person security profiles available in the Setup and Maintenance > Assign Security Profiles to Role task. Based on the profile assigned, other steps may or may not be needed. For example, assigning the View All People security profile, which allows any user with this role to see all people in the Find Person page within Labor Distribution, doesn't require additional steps. To learn more, see the Securing HCM guide, specifically the Secure Person Records by Area of Responsibility topic.

Setting up the HCM security framework to allow user access to person and pay element information involves the following tasks:

  1. Create appropriate responsibility types.
  2. Create the required Person security profile.
  3. Assign the created Person security profile to appropriate roles.
  4. Assign the appropriate area of responsibility to users.
