Statutory Dependent Field for Contacts

A new field is added to the following pages where contacts are managed:

You can specify whether a contact is a statutory dependent, the definition of which varies by legislation.  The field is used in legislative processes and reports.

Oracle delivers a page composer expression that controls the display of the field on the page.  The expression evaluates a table that is delivered by the Oracle localization product teams to determine whether the field is displayed for a specific legislation.  If the delivered expression does not meet the functional requirement, it can be modified using page composer.

A new lookup type, ORA_PER_STATUTORY_DEPENDENT is added to validate the data entered in the new Statutory Dependent field.  You can customize the lookup type to add values as per your requirement.

There are many assignment attributes delivered on this process which are hidden out of the box. The customer can unhide these attributes as per the business requirements, using page composer personalization. A page flow scope variable is also delivered to allow customers to selectively hide or unhide attributes on this process without impacting the display of those attributes on other flows. For example, to unhide an attribute only on this flow, use #{pageFlowScope.isChangeLegalEmployer == 'Y'}.

A new approval rule called Change Legal Employer has been delivered for customers to configure specific approval conditions for this guided process.

Record of Employment (ROE): Automating the Archiving of ROE Blocks 17A and 17C

Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides the ability to capture and archive balances required for reporting amounts in blocks 17A (Vacation Pay) and 17C (Other Monies) on the Record of Employment.

The following ROE balances are now delivered to provide the ability to automatically archive and report blocks 17A and 17C data:

Both insurable and non-insurable earnings elements fed to the new seeded ROE balances and paid in the employee’s final pay period are now archived and reported in blocks 17A (Vacation Pay) and 17C (ROE Other Monies) accordingly.

To report insurable earnings in Blocks 17A or 17C on the ROE, you must feed the Insurable Earnings input value to the ROE balance.  Below is an example of a feed to the ROE balance.  In this case, the input value is fed to the balance ROE Other Monies – Other Bonus.

ROE Other Monies - Other Bonus

To report non-insurable earnings in Blocks 17A or 17C, you must feed the Earnings input value to the ROE balance.  Below is an example of a feed to the ROE balance.  In this case, the input value is fed to the balance ROE Other Monies – Retiring Allowance, Retirement Leave credits.

ROE Other Monies - Retiring Allowance, Retirement Leave Credits

Additionally, balance adjustments processed with effective dates that falls within the employee’s final pay period are archived and reported on the ROE in Blocks 17A and 17C.

A new Pay Type of ‘Balance’ is now present within the ROE Vacation Pay calculation component details on the Reporting Information calculation card, which provides the ability to provide dates for the balances fed to the ROE Vacation Pay balances.  Choosing the Pay Type of ‘Amount’ means that the amount entered on the reporting card will override the balance for the same Pay Code.

ROE Vacation Pay - Pay Type of Balance

A new Pay Type of ‘Balance’ is now present within the ROE Other Monies calculation component details on the Reporting Information calculation card, which provides the ability to provide dates for the balances fed to the ROE Other Monies balances.

Human Resource Advisor

Oracle Fusion Human Resources Advisor is a native engagement solution that provides robust HR case management capabilities, leading to a superior HR service experience. This application covers all aspects related to service request management for workers, managers, and HR Help Desk agents.

Create Service Request on Behalf of a Worker

Enhance the ability of managers and persons to whom managers have delegated the access, to create a service request (SR) on behalf of a worker in their hierarchy by overriding the primary point of contact.

Currently, the primary point of contact for a SR is defaulted to the worker logging the issue, and cannot be changed to another worker.  Further, the SR can only be viewed by the worker logging the SR or the Help Desk agent handling the SR. This restriction is now relaxed by allowing a worker to create a SR on behalf of another worker by overriding the primary point of contact. However, the workers can only search and select other workers in their hierarchy or when access is provided to workers using the delegation feature. Additionally, the data security policy is modified to allow users to view all SRs they create, not just the ones where they are the primary contact.

The following use cases are now supported:

SR Creation on Behalf of Lisa Jones

Steps to Enable

You can perform delegation by using the delegation feature. Create a HCM role to allow delegation of the SR feature.

Inbound Email to Log Service Requests

Enhance the ability of workers to log service requests (SRs) by sending an email to a specific email address that is set up and configured to create an HR Help Desk SR.

Most organizations will want to create an email channel that is dedicated for HR Help Desk communications, both for inbound and outbound email. To ensure the security of sensitive communications, HR Help Desk includes a dedicated inbound email channel. The inbound email channel is separate from the email channel that serves all non-HR Help Desk SRs. In order to ensure this security, a few additional configurations must be completed.

Inbound Email Channel Setup

Steps to Enable

To ensure the security of sensitive communications related to HR Help Desk, you must perform the following configurations:

  1. Configure inbound email forwarding: Create a new forwarding rule on the email server to redirect emails addressed to the HR Help Desk email account. The emails must be redirected to the HR Help Desk email address provided by Oracle at the time of provisioning. The forwarding rule and the redirected email address are different from the rule and email address used for all other SRs.
  2. Create email channel: Navigate to Setup and Maintenance > Service > Communication Channels > Manage Communication Channels > Create Channel. When selecting a Stripe Code, select HCM to process HR Help Desk emails to/from workers.

Key Resources

Synchronization of Line Manager Based on HCM Position Hierarchy

You can now synchronize the manager in the assignment based on the new HCM position hierarchy.  The Manager field in the Position Synchronization Configuration section on the Manage Enterprise HCM Information and the Manage Legal Entity HCM Information pages is changed from a check box to a list. This list contains two options – Use HCM position hierarchy and Use position manager.

Configure Synchronization of Manager in the Position Synchronization Configuration Section

If you select Use HCM position hierarchy, the Manager field in the assignment on the Manage Employment page is automatically populated based on the position hierarchy. For example, terminating a manager automatically reassigns all of the manager's direct reports to the incumbent in the parent position. Once you hire a new manager into the vacant position, the manager is populated with the incumbent of the parent position. If the parent position is vacant, the application searches further up in the hierarchy until it finds an incumbent. At the same time all incumbents of the direct child positions are reassigned to now report to the new manager. In case the position hierarchy is updated, all impacted assignments are also automatically updated with the value of the new manager.  

Manager Field is Automatically Populated and Direct Reports are Automatically Reassigned for a Person Hired as a Manager

Steps to Enable

  1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, search for and click the Manage Enterprise HCM Information task.  If you want to synchronize the manager value for a legal entity, in the Setup and Maintenance work area, search for and click the Manage Legal Entity HCM Information task.
  2. Click Edit and select Update from the list.
  3. Select Use HCM position hierarchy in the Manager list in the Position Synchronization Configuration section to synchronize the manager based on the position hierarchy.    
  4. Run the Synchronize Person Assignments from Position process to synchronize the line manager in the assignments.

Additional Country Extensions in Global Payroll Interface Extract Definition

We have enhanced the Global Payroll Interface extract definition to support the following additional country extensions:

When you copy this predefined extract definition for a legislative data group in one of these countries, your copy includes country-specific fields as well as the refined global attributes. For example, the extract includes country-specific fields from calculation cards.

NOTE:  You can also use Global Payroll Interface extract for countries other than the ones for which Oracle has delivered a country extension. In such cases, the extract will contain only the global data and not country-specific fields.
