HCM COMMON FEATURES
The following HCM common features include enhancements for Release 10:
HCM Data Loader Global Human Resources Payroll Common Features Oracle Tap (Mobile)
HCM DATA LOADER
HCM Data Loader is a flexible and comprehensive bulk-data-loading solution for business objects across multiple Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management products. You can use it for data-migration, ongoing inbound interfaces, and one-off bulk updates. It supports the bulk load of your configured descriptive and extensible flexfield data, translation data, tree hierarchies, person images, and Document of Record attachments.
IMPORT LOCAL FILE
You can now select files for HCM Data Loader processing directly from your local machine, removing the need to upload your files first to the Oracle WebCenter Content server.
The existing Import File button displays unprocessed files available on the Oracle WebCenter Content server. The new Import Local File option allows you to either browse for a local file or drag and drop a file from your file explorer to the Browse button.
. 20
Your selected file is uploaded to the Oracle WebCenter Content server and the Schedule Request page opens. On this page, you can immediately submit your file for processing.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
KEY RESOURCES
HCM Data Loader User’s Guide (My Oracle Support Document ID 1664133.1)
Return to Release Feature Summary
FLEXIBLE PIPE-DELIMITED FILE FORMAT
You can now simplify your inbound integrations by including the business object components and attributes relevant to your use case, whether that be full date-effective history for data migration, or incremental changes for data maintenance. You can supply multiple business object specific files in one compressed zip file and process them together. HCM Data Loader understands the order in which the business object data must be loaded to ensure referenced data is loaded first.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
KEY RESOURCES
For more information about HCM Data Loader file formats, go to My Oracle Support for the following guide:
• HCM Data Loader User’s Guide, (Doc ID: 1664133.1)
Return to Release Feature Summary
SECURE DATA TRANSFER
You can now optionally deliver encrypted compressed zip files to Oracle’s WebCenter Content server secured by a specific HCM Data Loader account. The compressed zip file is then streamed from the
. 21
WebCenter Content server and decrypted during import into stage tables before a multithreaded process loads valid objects into Oracle Fusion. You can use either the Oracle Fusion HCM File Import and Export interface, or the WebCenter Content web service to deliver a zip file to the WebCenter Content server.
Your compressed zip file is deleted by default from the WebCenter Content server as soon as HCM Data Loader has finished streaming it. You can change the default behavior by updating the Delete Source File parameter to No on the Configure HCM Data Loader page. Alternatively, you can choose to retain your source files for an individual file by setting the Delete Source File parameter to No on the Schedule Request window.
STEPS TO ENABLE

COUNTRY-LEVEL ADDRESS RULE
The Manage Features by Country or Territory task, formerly Manage Payroll Product Usage, now includes options for controlling the address style and the level of address validation. The address style determines which address attributes are available and maintained in the application. The address style can also affect validation, for example, if you specify that geography uses an address style to validate specific attributes. For example, in the United States, the address style can be defined to validate the State attribute.
The combination of address style and address validation determines the level of validation. The values you can select depend on the combination of the country or territory and the selected country extension. For example, for Canada, you can change the address style from its original value only when you set the country extension to Human Resources or None, not Payroll or Payroll Interface.
The following screen shows the updated Manage Features by Country or Territory page.
. 25
Manage Features by Country or Territory Page
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
• Changing address styles can affect validation rules and may lead to address data integrity and validation issues. If you provide data to a third party, such as a payroll or benefit provider, statutory recipients, or financial institutions, changes to validation or address styles may result in missing data or unrecognized data. Make sure to test any changes you make to the address style or validation for a country or territory before you implement them in a production environment.
• Disabling address validation disables only any country-specific programmatic validation rules created for a specific country or territory. Disabling address validation on the Manage Features by Country or Territory page does not have any impact on the validation you have set up on the Manage Geographies page.

PAYROLL
This section describes new features that are relevant if you use features such as elements, formulas, payroll definitions and database items, even if you don’t use Global Payroll. Typical applications using payroll common features are Absence Management, Benefits, Compensation, Global Human Resources, Global Payroll Interface and Time and Labor.
ENHANCED ELEMENT TEMPLATE FOR ABSENCES
You can easily create payroll elements for the plans you create in Oracle Fusion Absence Management. When you create an element, you complete questions that automatically create an absence element and its calculation components, related elements, balances, and formulas. For example, you select the type of information to transfer and the calculation units to use when reporting the absence. If you transfer accrual balances, you decide whether to:
• Calculate absence liability • Enable partial payment of a balance • Enable balance payments when enrollment ends
You can also select a method to reduce regular earnings if employees don’t complete a time card. You determine rates for your payments either in Absence Management or when you complete the element template questions. When processing absence entries in a payroll run, the formula associated to the absence element uses the global formula Rate Converter to convert rates.
Absences Element Template Questions
You associate the absence element to a plan in Absence Management, assign the plan to a person and decide whether to automatically transfer the absence information as it’s recorded and approved, or run a batch process. The daily breakdown and summary information transferred to the person’s calculation

card is processed in the next payroll run. You can then view the person’s absence accrual balance, absence payments, and deductions on their statement of earnings and payslip.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Select the rate to use for an absence element in your absence plan or in the element template. If you select the rate on both pages, ensure you select the same rate.

ENHANCED ELEMENT TEMPLATE FOR TIME CARDS
This feature only applies to user-defined legislations and predefined country extensions that have enabled the feature in this release.
You can create nonrecurring elements using the new Time Card category to process pay based on time card entries, such as elements for regular, overtime, and shift pay. Creating a time card element automatically generates all the related elements, balances, formulas, and calculation components required to calculate and process payments for reported time. When you create an element, you select a primary classification of standard or supplemental earnings and select the Time Card category. You can select the units to use to report calculated time, and also select a rate definition the formula uses to calculate time. After you submit the element definition, you create element eligibility records for the base, results, calculation, and retroactive elements generated by the element template.
Important: Do not create elements using the Time Card category if you are operating in a country where Oracle provides an HR, Payroll Interface, or Payroll Extension, as indicated on the Manage Features by Country or Territory page in the Setup and Maintenance work area.
. 28
Time Card Template Questions
Submit this process to convert a standard or supplemental element to a time card element only if you created the element. You only submit this process to convert standard and supplemental elements to time card elements if either of the following conditions applies. You created the element:
• Before this release and you didn’t submit the Create Time Card Calculation Components process to convert the element
• After upgrading to this release but without selecting the Time Card category
These elements must have a calculation rule of hours multiplied by rate. After running the process, you perform the following steps:
• Create element eligibility records for the elements generated by the process, typically the base element and the related elements: retroactive and results elements, and elements ending with a suffix of CIR.
• Compile the formulas used to calculate the time card element.

ROLE SIMPLIFICATION
Role definitions for the security reference implementation are simplified. Many roles beneath the job level are eliminated. The privileges that are defined are assigned to job or abstract roles, either directly or as aggregate privileges (which are new to Release10). This reduces the complexity of role administration and customization. Some things to consider with the role simplification are:
• An aggregate privilege combines the functional privilege for an individual task or duty with the relevant data privileges. Oracle defines and delivers aggregate privileges, these cannot be customized.
• Privileges or aggregate privileges can be assigned directly to job or abstract roles. (In Release 9, privileges could be assigned only to duty roles.)
Every job or abstract role that existed in Release 9 also exists in the simplified role hierarchy for Release 10. Each of these job or abstract roles authorizes the same privileges in Release 10 as it did in Release 9. Release 10 adds some new job roles. The nodes in the hierarchy between a job and its privileges are reduced and simplified.
Release 10 will include both the hierarchy you are used to and the new simplified hierarchy. On upgrade, users will be members of the old hierarchy. You can move users to the new hierarchy at your discretion. Note that new functionality will exist under the new hierarchy.
SIMPLIFIED ROLE HIERARCHY
Every job or abstract role that existed in Release 9 also exists in the simplified role hierarchy for Release 10. Each of these job or abstract roles authorizes the same privileges in Release 10, as it did in Release 9. Release 10 although, adds some new job roles. The nodes in the hierarchy between a job and its privileges are reduced and simplified.
Release 10 will include both the hierarchy you are used to and the new simplified hierarchy. On upgrade, users will be members of the old hierarchy. You can move users to the new hierarchy at your discretion. Note that new functionality will exist under the new hierarchy.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
For existing customers who upgrade to Release 10, you can choose to move your users to the simplified hierarchy at your own discretion. Before beginning the move to the simplified hierarchy, please be sure to review the white papers on My Oracle Support to understand what is involved and how it will work.

APPLICATIONS SECURITY
Oracle Fusion Applications Security provides a single console in which security managers and security administrators can review, design, and modify roles in Oracle Fusion Applications. It enables users to visualize the relationship among roles, and to model applications-menu and task-pane entries for any role. Users can also manage certificates and review a set of security reports.
COPY ROLE AND INHERITED HIERARCHY
You may create a new role by copying an existing role, then editing the copy. You have the option of copying only the "top" role (the role itself) or the top role and its inherited roles.
If you choose to copy only the top role, your copy shares its role hierarchy with the source role. That is, the source role inherits subordinate roles, and your copy inherits the same roles. Subsequent changes to those inherited roles will affect not only the source role, but also your copy.
If you choose to copy the top role and its inherited roles, the copied top role inherits new copies of all subordinate roles. This option insulates the copied role from any changes to the original versions of the inherited roles.

ANALYZE ROLES BY ROLE CATEGORY
A role belongs to a category, which describes the purpose the role shares in common with other roles. Typically a category contains a type of role configured for an application, such as "Financials — Duty Roles." You can review statistics about the categories themselves: the number of roles in each, the number of role memberships (roles belonging to other roles within the category), and the number of function and data security policies created for those roles. (Roles by Category pie chart compares the number of roles in each category with those in other categories.)
You can select a category and list the roles belonging to it. For each role, you can review its role memberships, function and data security policies, and users assigned to it.

Assignment Hours Details
In Absence Management, when a worker schedules an absence, the work schedule timings and number of hours for that particular day are reflected on the absence request page.
For Example: A worker’s assignment hours are from 08:00 to 12:00 every Friday. When you schedule an absence for the worker on a Friday, the availability calculation uses the worker’s start and end times to determine the worker’s availability by day. So the total absence time calculated for the worker is four hours.

BENEFITS
Oracle Fusion Benefits is a complete, configurable and flexible global solution that enables organizations to successfully evolve and adapt to the unique needs of their workforce. The solution enables setup of traditional 'one-size fits all' plans to highly complex plans that selectively target different workforce segments with different benefit packages. Self-service capabilities present the user with an out of the box intuitive guided enrollment process with contextual information and embedded analytics.
RATE START DATE RULE
Control the rate start date based on the date of the first pay check on or after the enrollment start date without using a rate periodization formula.
You use the new Pay Period Start, Before First Check, on or After Coverage Start rule for plans with waiting periods or flexible spending accounts, for biweekly, weekly, or semi-monthly payroll participants.
You select the rule in the Coverage and Rate Date Ranges section of the Enrollment step in the Create or Edit Plan or Program page of the Plan Configuration work area.

For example, your enterprise enforces a waiting period of 30 days for enrolling new hires on biweekly payrolls into a flexible spending plan. You want the flexible spending account rate to start on the first day of the pay period that precedes the date of the first pay check on or after the enrollment start date.
You hire a worker on November 1, 2014. The worker makes elections on November 12, 2014. In this case, the enrollment start date is December 1, 2014. The first check date after the enrollment start date is December 13, 2014. If you use this date rule, the rate starts November 30, 2014, which is the start of the pay period, in time for the next check date on December 13, 2014.

EXTRACTING BENEFITS DATA USING HCM EXTRACTS
You now have an additional way of extracting benefits data. The existing Benefits Extract functionality produces an HR-XML standard formatted file of enrollment data for onward transmission to third-party benefits carriers. In addition to using the Benefits Extract for reporting purposes, you can also use the generic HCM Extracts functionality to extract benefits data using the available Benefits database items.

BENEFITS FORMULA EVALUATION
Check if your formula works as expected for a sample participant without any impact on existing data. Previously, a full-scale plan configuration was required before you could associate your formula with an appropriate object.

COMPENSATION AND TOTAL COMPENSATION STATEMENT
Oracle Fusion Compensation enables your organization to plan, allocate, and communicate compensation using the most complete solution in the market. Make better business decisions using embedded analytics and a total compensation view of workers, regardless of geographic location or pay package components.
WORKFORCE COMPENSATION SUPPORTS MATRIX STRUCTURES
A new task available in plan setup, called Configure Hierarchies, enables you to create up to three hierarchies for a single compensation plan to give multiple managers access to the same workers.
A hierarchy determines the workers that appear on each manager's worksheet. The source of these hierarchies can be the primary line manager hierarchy, another manager hierarchy, a formula, or a position or department tree.
The primary hierarchy, what we have today, determines the approval chain, the path that budgets roll down, and modeling usage.
The secondary and the review hierarchies enable other users to view compensation information for workers available to them, propose allocations, and save those allocations. The primary worksheet manager can either accept or overwrite those proposals.
For each hierarchy, you can configure how to handle a worker who does not have a manager and the default access level.
Configure Up to Three Hierarchies
. 62
Managers See Plans for Which they have Access
If a manager doesn’t have a secondary managed plan or other plan to review, those regions don’t appear on the Compensation Plans page.
STEPS TO ENABLE
Use the Configure Hierarchies task when you set up your workforce compensation plan.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
Examples are:
• Create a country-based primary hierarchy that enables country leaders to manage the budget, and a secondary hierarchy that allows line managers to manage the compensation for their organization.
• Give a dotted line manager access to a worker’s compensation if the worker completed a project for the manager.

ENHANCED SUPPORT FOR RATE DEFINITIONS
We have enhanced the Manage Rate Definitions page to provide new options for defining rates, in addition to the existing options based on payroll balances or element input values. Now you can also calculate and retrieve rates from other rate definitions, or using values defined by criteria, or by calling a formula, for example to retrieve a rate from a user-defined table.
Other enhancements support currency conversions and rate conversions that enable you to use the part-time or full-time status of employees.
With these enhancements, you can:
• Set up separate base rates of pay for different types of employees. For example, if each set of employees receives an allowance that's a percentage of the base rate, you only need to define one allowance rate that's calculated based on the two rates that have the Base Rate check box selected.
. 108
• Use elements to retrieve values from an element input value or post values to an element input value. The element input value must have a special purpose of either Primary Input Value or Factor. For example, you would select the Primary Input Value special purpose for an amount value, such as a salary figure. For a factor value, such as a bonus that you calculate as 10 per cent of average earnings, you select the Factor special purpose.

GROSS-TO-NET REPORT BASED ON PROCESS DATE
When you submit the Gross-to-Net report from the Payroll Calculation work area, specify a date range. The date range must include the process date, such as the process date of the payroll run. The results of the report depend on the number of payroll calculations completed for the payroll within the date range.
Consider the following example:
1. You calculate the payroll for semimonthly payrolls. The process date of the first payroll run is offset to the second payroll period. The following table displays the balances for each payroll run.
Payroll Period Process Date Balance Total January 1-15 January 17 Standard Earnings 3,200.00 Employee Tax Deductions 1106.66 Employer Liabilities 468.80 January 16-31 January 31 Standard Earnings 3,200.00 Employee Tax Deductions 1391.73 Employer Liabilities 468.80
2. You submit the Gross-to-Net report with a start date of January 16 and an end date of January 31.
3. Both process dates fall in the second payroll period, so the report displays the combined results of both payrolls.

CALCULATE GROSS EARNINGS PROCESS OPTIONAL FOR GLOBAL PAYROLL INTERFACE EXTRACTS
You are no longer required to run the Calculate Gross Earnings process before using the Global Payroll Interface extract definition to extract data. By making this requirement optional, you can extract data from element entries and provide it to your third-party payroll provider more frequently than once each payroll period.
If you intend to extract data once per payroll period, it is recommended to first run the Calculate Gross Earnings process. However, if you plan to extract data more frequently, such as daily or in the middle of a payroll period, you can run the extract process at any time, but you should not run the Calculate Gross Earnings process.
. 114
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
One of the following two approaches will be best suited for your third-party payroll provider when using the Global Payroll Interface extract:
• Approach 1:
o Extract and provide data once per payroll period o Run Calculate Gross Earnings o Include calculated earnings balance values o Run subsequent reports, such as Element Result Register, Payroll Balance Report,
and Balance Exception Report
• Approach 2:
o Extract and provide data multiple times per payroll period o Include element entry values
Important: It is best to pick only one approach. If you change approaches in the middle of a payroll period, the application will consider any records as changed, which could be misleading or incorrect.

PA ACT 32 CALCULATION ENHANCEMENTS
Act 32 of the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development requires a PSD code and school district for both an employee’s residence and work locations in order to determine the proper local income taxation. To determine these codes, Oracle Fusion HCM (US) now checks the residency certificate of the employee’s withholding certificate first instead of the address. If there is no resident data entered the residency certificate, then it uses the employee’s address, including the tax district, to determine them. If the data is missing from both the employee’s residency certificate and address, then it raises an error during payroll calculation.
STEPS TO ENABLE
There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.
TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS
The PSD code entered on the location is not used in the employee tax calculations. Any changes to the work PSD code must be done on the employee’s residency certificate. Use the Manage Calculation Cards task in the Payroll Calculation work area to update the employee’s residency certificate information. The residency certificate information is visible under the PA regional component.
