Redwood Experience for Reporting Establishments

Enrich the user experience with the new Reporting Establishments pages developed using the Redwood toolset. The pages are built from the ground up using Visual Builder Studio (VBS) to give you a unique experience of Oracle applications.

You can search for a reporting establishment based on the name or location. Filter on effective date, status, location name, or name as required. You can sort the search results based on name, and also export the search results.

Tips And Considerations

  • Guided journeys are supported.

  • If the Default Effective Start Date in the Workforce Structures Configuration at the enterprise is provided, this value is used for the effective start date while creating a new reporting establishment.

  • To display the flexfields on the Redwood page, you need to refresh and deploy them again.

  • You can personalize the Redwood pages by using Visual Builder Studio (VBS). You need to personalize the Create and read-only pages individually. For more information, refer to the Extending Redwood Applications for HCM and SCM Using Visual Builder Studio guide.

  • If you have personalized any of the existing ADF pages, you need to personalize them again in Redwood.
