Reassignment Conflict Rules for Oracle Learning Specializations

When you assign a specialization, you can decide the outcome for learners with existing, unexpired completions. You can reassign them to or exempt them from the new assignment. Optionally, you can use their existing completion date to decide the outcome.

When you reassign a learner, they see a new assignment in their current learning. They need to complete it according to the configured completion settings. If you exempt them, the learner won’t see a new assignment in their current learning or learning history. But any learning administrator can see the new learning assignment with an Exempted status. The exempted assignment is evidence of the reassignment and exemption.

Before Learning looks at the renewal options for Completed or Bypass Completed assignments, it decides if the learners completed all required activities for the current assignment.

• If they have, the specified renewal options apply. This happens even if the required activities for the specialization changed, and learners have already completed the activities as part of another assignment or self-enrollment.
• If they haven't, they get a new assignment as specified for under All Other Existing Assignments. This can happen when the required specialization activities changed. Learners completed the required activities for their existing assignment, but not the more recently added activities required for the renewal assignment getting generated.

You can also use reassignment rules to get learners into synced renewals when they've existing nonrenewing completions. The existing completion date and the new assignment’s renewal rules decide when the learner gets their new assignments for their current learning. After they complete their current assignment, they follow the renewal rules of their new assignment.

You can configure these renewal and assignment conflict rules when you create learning assignments or learning initiatives. You can also set up default renewal options and assignment conflict rules that apply when managers assign learning to their teams. Use the Configure Catalog Defaults task in the My Client Groups > Learning work area.
