Enable Audit for Oracle HCM Cloud Business Objects

This procedure describes how to enable audit for selected HCM business objects.

Select Products to Audit

Follow these steps:

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, search for and click the Manage Audit Policies task.

2. On the Manage Audit Policies page, click Configure Business Object Attributes in the Oracle Fusion Applications section.

3. On the Configure Business Object Attributes page, select a product. For example, set Product to Profile Management.

   When you select a product, the objects that you can audit are listed in groups in the Objects section of the page. For example, for Profile Management you see:

   • Audit Top Node

     • Talent Content Library

     • Talent Pools

     • Talent Profiles

     • Talent Profiles Setup

     • Common Notes

   Under each of these object groups, you see hierarchies of objects and their auditable components. For example, in the Talent Content Library group you see this hierarchy:

   • Rating Models

     • Rating Levels

   • Content Items

Select Objects and Attributes to Audit

Follow these steps:

1. In the Audit column of the table of business objects, select an item to audit. These rules apply:

   • When you select a single component, such as Rating Levels, its object group and Audit Top Node are selected automatically.

   • When you select an object group, such as Talent Content Library, every entry in the group and Audit Top Node are selected automatically.

   • If you select Audit Top Node, then every object group and its contents are selected automatically.

2. You can configure the attributes to audit only when you select a single component, such as Rating Levels. When you select a single component, the Audited Attributes section of the page is updated automatically to list the attributes that are audited by default. To update the list of attributes, click the Create icon.

   The Select and Add Audit Attributes dialog box opens.

3. In the Select and Add Audit Attributes dialog box, you can deselect the selected attributes, if appropriate, and select additional attributes. To audit flexfield attributes, if any, select the Flexfields (Additional Attributes) option in the dialog box. This option appears only if the selected component has flexfields.

4. Click OK to close the dialog box.

5. Click Save and Close on the Configure Business Object Attributes page.

Enable Audit

On the Manage Audit Policies page:

1. Set Audit Level to Auditing.

2. Click Save and Close to close the Manage Audit Policies page.

Changes made from now on by any user to the selected attributes of the object are audited. A user who has the Internal Auditor job role or privileges can review audited changes on the Audit Reports page.
