Example for Loading Absence Records

Absence records that are imported from Oracle Cloud Absences or third-party applications are stored and processed within the Oracle Cloud Payroll application. You can view the imported records by navigating to the Absence Entries region of the Calculation Entries page.

Using HCM Data Loader, you can create, update, and delete absence records. You can update and delete the absences that have:

• Not yet been processed by the payroll application

• Been processed by the payroll application

• Been partly processed by the payroll application

Create an Absence

Let's consider this example. An employee is sick from 01 Mar to 03 Mar. Their line manager applies for sickness absence in the company's third-party absence application. The absence administrator extracts the absence and sends it to Cloud Payroll for payment.

Update an Absence

Let's consider this example. An employee is sick from 01 Mar to 03 Mar. Their line manager applies for sickness absence in the company's third-party absence application. The absence administrator extracts the absence and sends it to Cloud Payroll for payment. However, the employee extends the sickness absence by one day.

Using HCM Loader, the line manager updates the absence record to include the additional absence of one day - 04 Mar. The Absence Administrator extracts the corrected absence information and sends it to the payroll application.
