Applications Security

Oracle Applications Security provides a single console where IT Security Managers and Administrators can perform various functions including user lifecycle management, role definition, security policy management(both functional and data), role hierarchy maintenance, username and password policy administration, and certificate management. The console also enables users to simulate the effect of security changes, to run security reports, and download a connector for integration with Microsoft Active Directory.

Hide Candidate Security Profile When Candidate Security Is Not Enabled

You can see the Candidate Security Profile in the Manage Data Roles and Security Profiles page for Recruiting data roles only when the Oracle Recruiting Candidate Security profile option (ORA_IRC_CANDIDATE_SECURITY_ENABLED) is enabled. This security profile won’t appear either on the sub-train stop or on the Review page.

This profile option is disabled by default.

This feature simplifies the definition of Recruiting data roles when candidate security is not enabled.

Steps to Enable

The Candidate Security profile option (ORA_IRC_CANDIDATE_SECURITY_ENABLED) is disabled by default. Enable this profile option if you want to see the Candidate Security Profile on the Manage Data Roles and Security Profiles page. Let’s look at the steps to enable the profile option.

1. Navigate to the Setup and Maintenance work area and search for the Manage Administrator Profile Values task.

2. Search for the ORA_IRC_CANDIDATE_SECURITY_ENABLED profile option.

3. Select the Level as Site.

4. Change N to Y for the site level row.

5. Click Save and Close.

Tips And Considerations

When migrating data roles between environments, ensure that the Candidate Security Profile option setting is configured to be the same on both environments.

HCM Common What's New for 20D, the feature is Candidate Security

Prevent Creating AppID Users in User and Role Provisioning Interfaces

In this feature, the interfaces related to user and role provisioning area have been enhanced to filter out application users (AppID users) and to prevent creating such users.

The following enhanced interfaces won't allow the APPID users:

selfDetails REST API
userAccounts REST API
userAccountsLOV REST API
userRolesLOV REST API
SCIM REST API
Manage User Account quick action user interface
Users and Roles page

Improved consistency in user and role provisioning pages and APIs.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Key Resources

Review the REST service definition in the REST API guides, available from Oracle Help Center > your apps service area of interest > APIs & Schema. If you're new to Oracle's REST services you may want to begin with the Quick Start section.

HCM Data Loader

HCM Data Loader provides a flexible and efficient method of bulk loading business object data for data-migration and on-going incremental updates to Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud.

Visibility of Objects that Support Being Rolled Back

Understand which HCM Data Loader objects support their data being rolled back from the application tables. The business object table in the View Business Objects task now includes the Roll Back Supported column:

Roll Back Supported on the Business Objects Table

Drilling down to the Business Object details page, the Component Details tab displays the level of roll back support:

Roll Back Support on the Component Details Tab

The Overview spreadsheet, downloaded from the Business Object table also displays the level of roll back support:

Roll Back Support in the Overview Spreadsheet

You can now identify which business objects support being rolled back. The View Business Objects task and Overview spreadsheet, available from this task, have been enhanced to include the roll back support available for each object.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

Use the View Business Objects task to review the latest business object information.

Remove Person Information Enhancements

We now have a separate privilege for the Report mode (ORA_HRC_GENERATE_REMOVE_PERSON_INFORMATION_FILE). Having this privilege alone grants the user access to the Report mode only. The existing privilege, ORA_HRC_REMOVE_PERSON_INFORMATION grants access to both remove and report modes.

Granting access to the report mode only lets you have flexibility over the user's privileges.

Steps to Enable

Make the feature accessible by assigning or updating privileges and/or job roles. Details are provided in the Role section below.

Create a new job role.
Add the policy "Configure Person Information Removal Policies" (HRC_CONFIGURE_PERSON_INFO_REMOVAL_POLICIES_PRIV) under Function Security Policies to access the Configure Person Information Removal Policies page to this new role.
Add the "Remove Person Information" (ORA_HRC_REMOVE_PERSON_INFORMATION) role under Role Hierarchy for accessing both Report and Remove modes under the Remove Person Information page.

To access the Report mode alone, add the ORA_HRC_GENERATE_REMOVE_PERSON_INFORMATION_FILE role under Role Hierarchy instead.

Create a Person Security Profile to restrict access to workers if needed.
Create a Data role and to it, assign the new job role. Assign the appropriate Person Security Profile.
Add the new data role to the appropriate user. Add the new data role to the appropriate user.

Role Information

Any implementation user who can grant access and privileges can assign the requisite permissions for the role.

Processed Source Files Automatically Deleted

When you load files, even those selected from your desktop, the file is placed on the WebCenter Content server in the HCM Data Loader import account. By default, the file is deleted from the WebCenter Content server once the data has been transferred to the HCM Data Loader staging tables. The Delete Source File parameter controls this behavior when you import and load the file.

Each file loaded from the WebCenter Content server creates a data set in the HCM Data Loader staging tables. If the source file still remains, it will be deleted when the data set is deleted. When submitting the deletion of a data set, the Delete Source File parameter can be overridden to retain the source file.

Source files that remain will now be automatically deleted from the WebCenter Content server once they have expired. The Delete Stage Table Data process will first delete expired data sets, then remove expired source files.

Your processed source files will now automatically be deleted from the Oracle WebCenter Content server, once they have expired.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

By default, source files expire 30 days after they were used to create a data set. You can override the default retention period using the Days to Retain Processed Source Files Before Deleting parameter in the Configure HCM Data Loader task.

If you have a large number of expired source files, the Delete Stage Table Data process will delete the first 1000 files. Removing a large number of source files will occur over a number of iterations of the process.

HCM Data Loader Configuration Parameters

HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader

HCM Data Loader provides a flexible and efficient method of bulk loading business object data for data-migration and on-going incremental updates to Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud.

Roll Back Spreadsheet Data

Roll back the spreadsheet data you have loaded, using the new Roll Back button available on the Spreadsheet Loader toolbar:

Roll Back Button

You can now roll back data loaded directly from the spreadsheet used to load the data.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

You can only roll back data that hasn't been updated since it was loaded and only for the objects which support being rolled back.

Key Resources

Use the View Business Object task to identify which objects support being rolled back.

Secured Business Objects Now Available to Business Users

Extend your business users' bulk-loading capabilities for an object. Spreadsheets based on these objects now implement the user's data security and can be shared with business users.

Global Payroll

Calculation Card

Your business users can bulk load data for these objects using spreadsheets.

Steps to Enable

When creating a new spreadsheet template, the template security automatically defaults to the setting where data is uploaded as the session user. For existing templates based on these objects, you can update the template configuration and set the user type to session user.

Key Resources

For more information, see the following help topics in the Integrating with HCM guide located in the Oracle Help Center:

HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader Templates
How You Associate a User Name with a Data Upload

Reduced Maximum Days Retention for Extended Data Sets

Data sets containing data for business objects supporting roll back can be retained for an extended period of time. The maximum duration has been reduced to 60 days since the data set was last processed.

Data sets are automatically deleted after they expire.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

The Days to Preserve Extended Retention Data Sets parameter, available in the Configure HCM Data Loader task controls the duration to retain data sets for the purposes of roll back.

The Enable Automatic Extended Data Set Retention parameter determines whether data sets containing objects that support roll back are automatically retained for an extended period, the default is No. You can manually extend the duration of data set retention from the Import and Load Data task.

Key Resources

For more information, go to the Oracle Help Center for the following help topics:

HCM Data Loader Configuration Parameters
Extending the Retention Period of a Data Set

HCM Extract

HCM Extracts provide a method for extracting data from your HCM applications that can be used for interfacing data to another source or extracting data to integrate reporting across systems.

Purge HCM Extracts Archive Data Using Remove Person Information Feature

You can clean-up the extracts generated archive data, when running the Remove Person Information process for an ex-employee, by selecting the 'Extracts Archive' from the list of available business objects.

Purge process relies on the threading database item defined for an extract to determine the archive data for a given ex-employee to be purged. Following threading DBIs, if defined for an extract, will facilitate associating the archive data to the person number passed to the process.

Person Id
HR Assignment Id
Work Relationship Id
Payroll Relationship Id
Payroll Assignment Id

You no longer need to retain data for terminated or canceled employees.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

When extracts are run again for the purged ex-employees, any leftover data that remain in the system may still get reported in the extracts and archived. You should consider excluding these purged employees from your extracts run.
You can run Purge Extracts Archive Data to purge archive data generated by specific extracts and archives that are older than 90 days.

Protect Oracle Delivered HCM Extracts from Edits

For delivered or seeded extracts, users cannot edit the extract. Make a copy of the delivered extract to change or add a parameter.

Instead of creating the extract definition again, you can now make a copy of the seeded or delivered extract and make your changes.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

HCM Common Features

This section covers features used across all HCM Applications.

Hidden Attributes in Business Objects for Configure Business Objects and Autocomplete Rules

The Configure Business Objects and Autocomplete Rules tasks have been streamlined with changes in the business objects and related attributes. Deprecated business objects are removed and a few attributes are hidden in the respective business objects. The attributes won't be available in manual groovy in the Configure Business Objects task and logic rules in Autocomplete Rules pages. Hence, manual groovy and logic rules must be reviewed for each impacted business object.

This table lists the previous and current names for each business object..

Hidden Attributes in Business Objects

Some attributes are hidden from a list of business objects and won't be available in manual groovy in Configure Business Objects and Autocomplete Rules tasks. Manual groovy in Configure Business Objects and logic rules in Autocomplete Rules must be reviewed for each impacted business object.

The following attributes are hidden in HCM Cloud from release 21B. It's strongly recommended to remove these attributes from Manual Groovy in Configure Business Objects in release 21A.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Secure Access for Workers with Multiple Assignments

We continue to enhance the HCM footprint for securing user access for workers by using assignment-level security, if your organization allows them to have multiple assignments. The current out-of-the-box behavior supports person-based security access, which means a user having access to a person has access to all assignments and personal information for that person. The new assignment-level security restricts a user's access to a person's assignment based on the user's area of access. By enabling a new assignment-level security profile option and regenerating your data grants and security profiles, your organization opts into this feature for your HCM Cloud implementation.

This is the second feature release of a multi-phased implementation for HCM Cloud customers. This release provides further enhancements to Absence Management, Document Records, Global HR OTBI Reporting, Performance, and Personal Payment Methods from the Payroll product area. The respective HCM quick actions and person searches have been modified to provide a broader and more consistent user experience for organizations with multiple assignments. The users will be restricted to only those assignments to which they have access and not all assignments of the person just because they can access that person. These are a few examples to explain this functionality:

Scenario 1: A line manager and HR specialist are responsible for a worker who is both a registered nurse in the emergency room (ER) department and also has a different assignment as a senior citizens memory ward coordinator. This worker may have two different line managers, and each should only see the worker's single assignment in their respective organizations. The line managers should not see assignments for different departments, in this case ER department and memory ward. Likewise, there may be two HR representatives supporting each department (or business unit). The HR representative should not be able to access the assignment in an organization that they don't have access to.

Scenario 2: Harry is a manager with multiple concurrent assignments. He also has a direct report, Jane who has two assignments herself with two different managers. In this scenario, Harry should only be able to access Jane's primary assignment and Franco (Jane's direct report). However, Harry should not be able to access Jane's second assignment, and certainly not Kyle.

Example of Intended Line Manager Access for a Worker with Multiple Concurrent Assignments

Scenario 3: Lisa works at a school and has two assignments, one as an academic counselor and as a sports coach. As an academic counselor, Lisa reports to Dave. Dave should be able to see Lisa's absence plan balances, cash disbursements, leave donations, and her work schedules specifically for the academic counselor assignment. Dave should also be able to access Lisa's absences that impact this assignment, and be asked to approve any absences from this assignment only. Dave should not be able to access absence plan balances for the sports coach assignment, and must not be able to view or approve absences that only impact the sports coach assignment.

Several quick action search results are now modified in HCM to restrict user access to the assignments that they have access to. Here's an example, of before and after turning on assignment-level security.

Manager Accessing the My Team Work Area with Person-Based Security Enabled

Manager Accessing the My Team Work Area with Assignment-Based Security Enabled

If you turn on this feature you can lock down security to the assignment level. This allows managers and organizations to only see information that is within their area of responsibility.

Steps to Enable

Prerequisites:
1. Enable approvals for transactions that use assignment-level security. For example, transactions, such as Administer Individual Compensation, Administer Salary, Manage Salary, Person External Identifiers, Salary History, Approve Performance Document, and Work-Schedule Assignments.
  - For information on enhancements to the approval rule page, refer to the 20C HCM Common What's New for the Enhancements to the Human Capital Management Approval Rules UI feature.
  - For information on enhancements to the transaction approvals supporting multiple assignments in HCM, refer to the Global HR 20D What's New for the Enhanced Transaction Approvals Support Multiple Assignments in Global Human Resources feature.
2. Manually update security for custom roles using instructions from Implementing Assignment-Level Security in HCM (Document ID 2700661.1) on My Oracle Support. Note: Our regeneration processes will not alter any custom criteria. You must manually update security for custom roles because it is not a delivered functionality.
3. Enable the responsive pages for the transactions by enabling the HCM_RESPONSIVE_PAGES_ENABLED profile option. See step 3 on how to enable this profile option. Note: You don’t need to enable for these classic payroll pages because they have no responsive pages: Payroll Relationship, Element Entries, Calculation Entries, and Costing for a Person.
To secure access for workers with multiple assignments, you must enable this profile option:

Field Value

Profile Option Code
ORA_PER_ASSIGNMENT_LEVEL_DATA_SECURITY_ENABLED

Field	Value
Profile Option Code	ORA_PER_ASSIGNMENT_LEVEL_DATA_SECURITY_ENABLED

To enable the profile option, navigate to the Setup and Maintenance work area:
1. Search for and click the Manage Administrator Profile Values task.
2. Search for and select the profile option.
3. Click to add a new Profile Value.
4. Select the Level as Site.
5. Enter a Y in the Profile Value field.
6. Click Save and Close.

Enabling Assignment-Level Security Profile Option

Run the Regenerate Data Security Profiles and Grants ESS job set to convert person security profile grants and update data roles. These 2 processes are run as part of the job set:
1. Regenerate Data Security Grants
2. Regenerate Data Security Profiles

Run Regenerate Data Security Profiles and Grants Job Set

NOTE: Cloud Operations will initiate the Regenerate Data Security Profiles and Grants job set as part of your upgrade to customer environments. After receiving your environment back after the Update, your IT Security Manager user will have the ability to view the status of the job set. The IT Security Manager must verify that the job set is successfully run to completion. Depending on the size of your organization, the job set process may still be running when your environment is returned. Please ensure that you don't release to your user population without testing your custom data roles. If the job set fails for some reason, your IT Security Manager must manually run the job set, and make sure it completes successfully. On-premise HCM customers will still need to run the job set manually before beginning upgrade testing.

To enable assignment-level security in the employment contract, you must run the Migrate Employment Data process by selecting this run mode: Enhance contract data to enable its use in the responsive pages. For more information about the Migrate Employment Data process, see the Process to Migrate Contract Data topic under the Hire and Manage Workers chapter of the Using Global Human Resources guide. You can access the guide from Oracle Help Center.

Person Security Profile Displays a Blue Banner Message to Confirm that the Assignment-Level Security is Enabled

Assignment-level security will work automatically for plan balances, disbursements, donations, and work-schedule assignments when you do the setup steps from 1 through 4. For existing absences and absence entry, assignment-level security is enabled only if Absences are entered at the assignment-level. To understand how this works, refer to the Absence Management 21A What's New features: Prevent Absences from Impacting Multiple Assignments and Enhanced Absence Security for Workers with Multiple Assignments
Enable approvals for impacted transactions.
1. Absence Management flows:
  1. Absences: On the absence type setup page, set the value for the Approvers field to: Managers of all relevant assignments. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. Click Navigator > My Client Groups > Absences > Absence Type. Create or edit an existing absence type
    2. You can select the approvers from the Approvers list in the Absence Record Maintenance section.
    3. The default value is Manager of employee’s primary assignment. Select Managers of all relevant assignments to set up approvals for managers of all assignments the employee is involved in.
  2. Disbursements and donations: You can configure the approval task in the Transaction Console to send the approval request either to just the primary assignment manager or to the line manager of the assignment from which employee is requesting the cash disbursement or initiating the donation. For example, you can configure the approval rule to seek approval from the manager of the transaction’s assignment. Now, if an employee tries to initiate a donation from a specific assignment, the approval request goes to the line manager of that assignment.
  3. Work-schedule assignments: Here’s how you can configure the work schedule assignment approvals so that the approval notifications for work-schedule assignment changes go to the relevant assignment’s manager of the employee instead of the primary assignment manager: For more information, refer to the Absence Management 21A What's New feature: Route Work Schedule Assignment Approvals to the Appropriate Manager
    1. Click Tools > Transaction Console in the Home Page.
    2. Click Approval Rules.
    3. Search Manage Work Schedule Assignment and click edit to configure approval rules.
    4. Select the relevant component from the chain of approval.
    5. Set the Approval Chain Of field to Requester and set assignment type to Use current assignment hierarchy. Note: When you pick "Requester" in the Approval Chain of field, the application assumes that this means the "employee". So, the approval will be routed to the employee's manager.
2. Document Records flows: Approvals will now route to the manager of the appropriate assignment, if configured to do so.
3. Performance Management flows:
  1. Run the Approve Performance Document approval task.
  2. Select the assignment type configuration option (Use primary assignment or Use current assignment) in the approval rule definition.
Enable the responsive user interface, except for these classic user interfaces as there are no responsive equivalents for them:
1. Absences:
  1. There is no enabling responsive user interface because all classic pages which have a responsive equivalent have been removed in release 20D. All customers see responsive pages where responsive pages exist, otherwise, they see classic pages. The classic pages that we still support, and have been enhanced to support assignment-level security are:
    1. Absence Records
    2. Work Schedule Assignments

These classic pages will support assignment-level security when accessed only through the quick actions, and not through the Person Management page. Enable the responsive user interface using instructions from HCM Responsive User Experience Setup Information (Doc ID 2399671.1) on My Oracle Support.

Tips And Considerations

You can't enable the assignment-level security profile option with the Oracle Search profile option. You can enable only one of these profile options in this release.
The custom criteria on the Person Security Profile won't be modified by any Oracle processes, and you need to manage your custom criteria. To update your custom criteria, refer to the MOS Doc ID listed in the Key Resources section.
The Share Data Access action doesn't yet support assignment-level security. If you use the action in your organization, your users will continue to have access to all assignments for a shared person.
Employment:
- After you enable assignment-level security, you can’t use this navigation to manage assignment data for an assignment that you don’t have access to: Person Management work area > Classic Manage Employment page
- The employment tree icon on the classic manage employment page won’t be visible after you enable assignment level security.
Talent Management:
- The Talent Review, Succession, and Talent Pools features don’t support multiple assignments. The worker list of values (LOVs) only allow the user to select a primary assignment.
- Succession Quick Actions: Although the quick action supports assignment-level security, if the user selects a nonprimary assignment from the quick actions search page, it’s the primary assignment information that will be displayed and saved in the succession plan.
- Career Development Quick Actions: Although the quick action supports assignment-level security, the user will be able to view all development goals for the employees, irrespective of the assignment. This means a user, such as a line manager having access to a person has access to all development goals of that person.
- Career Development Admin pages: The search results include all development goals for employees who meet the user's security profile definition. This means an HR specialist having access to a person has access to all development goals of that person.
Absence Management:
- HCM Assignment security does not work on person-level absences, meaning any manager or HR administrator who has access to the employee can access all absences of this type. Any manager or administrator can view and manage advanced entries belonging to all assignments, even those that they are not authorized to see.
- HCM Assignment Security, if enabled, applies only to absences entered at assignment-level. Such an absences is visible only to managers or administrators who are authorized to access the specific assignment for which the absence was created. Managers and administrators can enter assignment-level absences only for assignments that they have the authority to access.
- If “Allow one assignment per absence” is selected, and the employee wants to take time off from all assignments using this type, the employee must enter separate absences for each assignment.
- If you use absence approvals and implement HCM Assignment Security, you must configure the absence type to set the approvers to “Managers of relevant assignments”. This ensures that the notifications do not go to managers who don’t have access to the assignment for which the absence was created.
- Once the absence is saved, the business title or assignment can’t be changed. If you want to change the business title, you need to withdraw the absence and create a new one.
- If you enable HCM Assignment security and use absence approvals, you must configure the absence types to send approval requests to managers of relevant assignments. This ensures that absences are routed to the correct manager for approval.
- Absences impacting multiple assignments are considered absences entered at person level. These absences will continue to be secured at person level. This means that any manager or administrator who has access to this employee will be able to view and manage all such absences.
- Qualification plan entitlements and Entitlement Agreements are at the person-level. Therefore, this information will be visible to all administrators who have access to the person.
- If you want the absences to be fully secured, you need to ensure that they are entered at assignment level. This means that you need to ensure that a specific assignment is selected when entering an absence.
- If you use absence approvals and implement HCM Assignment Security, you must configure the absence type to set the approvers to “Managers of relevant assignments”. This ensures that the notifications do not go to managers who don’t have access to the assignment for which the absence was created.
- Absences data loaders do not support Assignment Security because they run with super user privileges.
- Assignment-level security doesn’t work when using the classic Person Management page. It will only work through the quick actions. Administrators need to ensure that they access Absence Records page or Work Schedule Assignments page using the quick actions only.
Document Records:
- Document Record Approval Routing:
  - This feature will not replace your existing application behavior, but if you want to leverage the feature, you have to make the necessary configuration changes.
  - This feature is applicable only to document record related approvals.
  - The default approval rule is set to primary assignment hierarchy.
  - If the approval rule is set to primary assignment hierarchy, irrespective of which assignment you select, the approval always goes to the line manager of the primary assignment.
  - If the approval rule is set to current assignment hierarchy, the approval always goes to the line manager of the assignment you selected.
- Document Record:
  - Use of Document Records in the Benefits area remains at the person-level access only.
- Global HR OTBI Reporting:
  - With assignment-level security enabled, either of these conditions apply:
    - A manager can only see the assignments they have access to, but can't see person level document records.
    - A manager can see all assignments and then see document records for their assignment and the person level assignments.

IMPORTANT Actions and Considerations

REPLACED OR REMOVED FEATURES

From time to time, Oracle replaces existing Cloud service features with new features or removes existing features. When a feature is replaced the older version may be removed immediately or at a future time. As a best practice, you should use the newer version of a replaced feature as soon as the newer version is available.

ORACLE HAS DECOMMISSIONED THE HCM CLASSIC SIMPLIFIED USER INTERFACE IN UPDATE 20B

The new and redesigned HCM Responsive User Experience has been available and promoted as our standard since Update 18B. If you are still using the older HCM Classic Simplified User Interface, you must begin transitioning to the HCM Responsive User Experience, as these older pages will no longer be supported.

For information on the Responsive features, see the HCM Common What's New for Update 18B and 18C. The redesigned features are under a heading for Redesigned User Experience and have groupings by product. Features that have come out from 19A onwards will be in their respective solutions: HCM Common, Global Human Resources, Talent Management, Workforce Management and Workforce Rewards What's News. The feature will be under their product headings. You can open one these solutions such as Workforce Rewards and you will see tabs on the left to easily let you open the different releases to view the responsive features.

For consolidated information on generic setup information you can refer to My Oracle Support Document ID 2399671.1 - HCM Responsive User Experience Setup Information.

Highlights of New User Interface:

We’ve taken the employee and manager self-service pages to the next level by redesigning them to look and behave the same on desktop and mobile devices. We’ve also changed the look and feel of the pages to provide a better experience for end users.

Pages and messages look more modern and use simpler, more conversational language so that you can more easily read and understand content across all devices. The pages are clutter-free and clean and display only those fields that are required to complete the task. You can personalize the pages and add more fields that are hidden by default. For most self-service tasks, you’re asked what you want to do, and the task is broken down into a series of steps based on your choice.

_________________________

KNOWN ISSUES / MONTHLY AND STATUTORY MAINTENANCE PACK

Oracle publishes a Known Issues document for every Update to make customers are aware of potential problems they could run into and the document provides workarounds if they are available.

Oracle also publishes Maintenance Pack and Statutory Maintenance Pack documentation of bugs that are fixed in the monthly or statutory patching.

To review these documents you must have access to My Oracle Support:

Oracle Human Capital Management Cloud Functional Known Issues and Maintenance Packs (Document ID 1554838.1)

Autocomplete Rules for HCM Experience Design Studio Enhancements

Rule management in Autocomplete Rules for HCM Experience Design Studio is enhanced with new features such as ability to translate messages, convert decimal to long function, and support for list of values (LOVs) for business objects, where applicable. The list of business objects and associated attributes in Autocomplete Rules is more structured now and display functional names, and obsolete business objects and attributes are removed.

Convert Decimal to Long Function

You can now use the new function to convert a decimal variable to a long variable. When using a flex attribute with a value set definition that returns a data type of 'number', the data type of the flex is a 'bigDecimal'. Whenever you associate a valid entity relationship on another entity, such as 'Salary Basis for a Job', 'Business Unit for a Department' or 'Collective agreement for a job', and so on, using a flex attribute on the parent entity, the value stored in the flex attribute is of type bigDecimal. The data type of the identical corresponding entity (Salary Basis, Business Unit, Collective Agreement) stored in any given transaction Business Object such as Salary, Work Assignment, Position) is Long integer. To copy the value from the flex to the field on the transaction business object in Autocomplete you will need this function. For example, you can use this function when you want to default the salary basis with the salary basis stored in the job descriptive flexfield (DFF) for a specific job code while promoting a worker. Using this function, you can get the salary basis ID from the DFF and pass it to the salary basis in the Salary business object.

The new function is available for a variable defined as a Long type under standard functions. First, you need to define a variable with the new Long type:

Convert Decimal To Long Function

Then, use xyz to change this to the long function.

Translate Messages in Autocomplete Rules

You can now translate warning and error messages in all Oracle supported languages. For more details on translated messages, see the Tips and Considerations section and for information on how to translate messages, see the Key Resources section.

Structured List of Business Objects and Attributes

For a better user experience and easy navigation through the data model, most business objects, attributes, and view accessors are renamed to a more functional and user-friendly name.

Business Objects

Most business objects have been renamed with a meaningful name, and unused business objects have been removed.

Renamed Business Objects

This table lists the previous and current names of business object available from release 21A. The old objects will be deprecated and will be replaced with the new objects in release 21B.

Renamed View Accessors

Support for Attribute List of Values

For most business objects, attributes supported by a list of values in the page are also supported by a list of values in Autocomplete Rules.

Supported Attribute LOVs

You need to enable a sandbox to access the HCM Experience Design Studio:

Click Navigator > Configuration > Sandboxes
Click Create Sandbox.
Enter the Name.
Select the Active box for HCM Experience Design Studio.
Click Create and Enter.
Navigate to the My Client Groups tab.
Click Show More to open the quick actions.
Select HCM Experience Design Studio in the Employment group.

This feature enhances the rule management capabilities in Autocomplete.

Steps to Enable

To enable this feature you need to log a Service Request (SR).

Tips And Considerations

Use only one language when implementing and maintaining messages, otherwise the translation will be overridden. If the rule is edited in another language and saved while the message is already translated, then the message is overridden and translation will be lost.

Key Resources

For more information on translating existing strings using Configuration Tools, see the Configuring and Extending Applications guide on the Oracle Help Center.

Role Information

You must be granted the Human Capital Management Application Administrator role to enable a sandbox.

Oracle Search-Based Global Search

Oracle Search-based Global Search provides faster person search experience and introduces new person search capabilities:

Improved relevancy of results
- Fuzzy person name search - search allows for simple mistakes and typos for up to two spelling differences
- Name synonyms search - many English sounding names have their synonyms defined, it is possible to search by different forms of the name
- Fields boosting - person name search is the primary use case and person name matches are of highest relevancy

Ability to search by more fields
- Person Display Name
- Person Number
- Work Email Address
- Business Title

Matches among the direct reports are grouped at the top of the results, followed by matches from the other parts of the organization.

With this feature you are getting improved person search performance comparing to the database implementation and also improved quality of person search results.

Steps to Enable

To enable this feature you need to log a Service Request (SR).
