Control Default of Effective Start Date in Employment Flows

You can control the defaulting of the effective start date in these responsive employment flows using the ORA_PER_EMPL_DEFAULT_EFFECTIVE_DATE profile option:

• Add Assignment

• Add Contingent Worker

• Add Nonworker

• Add Pending Worker

• Change Assignment

• Change Location

• Change Manager

• Change Working Hours

• Create Work Relationship

• Direct Reports

• Hire an Employee

• Local and Global Transfer

• Promote

• Termination

• Transfer

Here are some points to consider when you use the profile option:

• If you have selected not to default the effective start date in the responsive employment flow, you need to first enter the effective start date in the flow. The other fields in the flow will be enabled for changes only after you enter the effective start date.

• You must not use Page Composer or HCM Experience Design Studio to hide the effective start date field when the profile option is set to N. This is because the effective start date is a required field for responsive employment flows.

• You must not use Page Composer or HCM Experience Design Studio to hide the termination notification date when the profile option is set to N. This is because the termination notification date is a required field for the responsive termination flow.

• There will be no change to the behavior of the offer conversion flows even if you set the profile option value to N. The effective start date will display the date entered during the job offer creation.

• There will be no change to the behavior of the Convert Pending Worker flow even if you set the profile option value to N. The effective start date will display the proposed start date entered during the pending worker creation.
