Manage Workforce Lifecycle Overview

The Manage Workforce Lifecycle business process covers all stages of a worker's
association with the enterprise, from creation of the person record through termination
of work relationships.
2 Copyright © 2013, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.


The business activities of the Manage Workforce Lifecycle process are performed by
human resource (HR) specialists and line managers.
 Add Person
HR specialists and line managers create new person records for employees,
contingent workers, nonworkers, and pending workers. The Add Person tasks
include creating the new person's first work relationship with the enterprise.
 Create Employment
HR specialists create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and
assignments for the workers to whom they have security access.
 Change Employment
HR specialists and Line managers can edit work location, working hours,
managers, and other employment details.
 Promote Worker
HR specialists promote workers to whom they have security access. Line
managers promote their direct and indirect reports.
 Transfer Worker
HR specialists permanently transfer or create temporary assignments for
workers to whom they have security access. Line managers permanently transfer
their direct and indirect reports. Permanent transfers and temporary assignments
can be within the worker's current legal employer or to a different legal employer.
 Terminate Worker
HR specialists terminate the work relationships of workers to whom they have
security access. Line managers terminate the work relationships of their direct
and indirect reports.
HR specialists access Add Person tasks from the New Person work area. They access
all other Manage Workforce Lifecycle tasks from the Person Management work area.
Line manager tasks are accessible from gallery search results, worker portraits, and the
Manager Resources Dashboard.

Add Person
Person Records
All workers, nonworkers, and contacts have a single person record in the enterprise,
which is identified by a person number. You cannot create the person record in isolation
because a person record requires one of the following:
 A current, past, or future work relationship with a legal employer

 A current, past, or future contact relationship with a person who has a work
relationship with a legal employer
Global Person Model
 Person exists once in an enterprise with a unique identifier

 Legislative specific name format definitions
 Legislative-related information can coexist as different levels
 Some global information can be displayed according to different legislative
requirement
 Person Relationships: Person-to-person and Person-to-organization
Person Types
 Enable identification of different groups of people in an organization

 Define the type of relationship a person has with an organization
 Establish management and processing rules
Person Records Compared with Work Relationships
Person records hold information that is personal, such as name, date of birth, and
disability information, or that may apply to more than one work relationship, such as
national ID. By contrast, work relationships hold employment information, such as job,
payroll, and working hours. A person's worker type (for example, employee) derives
from the person's work relationship; it is not part of the person record.
You create a person record either when you add the person as a contact (for example,
as an emergency contact) in another person's record or when you create the person's
first work relationship in the enterprise. For example, you create a person record by:
 Hiring an employee
 Adding a contingent worker
 Adding a nonworker
 Adding a pending worker. A pending worker is a person who will be hired or will
start a contingent worker placement and for whom you create a person record

that is effective before the hire or start date. When the new hire or placement is
finalized, you convert the new worker to the proposed worker type.

Creating Person Records: Examples

Adding a Person
Alex Morozov is starting a contingent worker placement with a legal employer in the
enterprise. Alex has never:
 Been an employee, contingent worker, or nonworker in any legal employer in the

enterprise
 Been an emergency contact, dependent, or beneficiary of another employee,
contingent worker, or nonworker anywhere in the enterprise
Therefore, Alex does not have a person record. To create both his person record and
his first work relationship, you add him as a contingent worker.
Rehiring an Employee
Sonia Jalla starts her employment with the enterprise in France next month. Sonia was
employed by the enterprise in the United States for several years, but resigned 3 years
ago. Because Sonia was employed by the enterprise before, she already has a person
record. When you attempt to hire Sonia, the application finds her existing person record.
When you confirm that the existing person record is Sonia's, you continue the rehire
process by creating an employee work relationship with Sonia's new legal employer in
France.
Hiring a Nonworker
Arturo Ruiz has a nonworker work relationship with a legal employer. Arturo recently
applied for employment with the same legal employer. He will continue as a volunteer
for this legal employer even after he has been hired. When you attempt to hire Arturo,
the application finds his person record. When you confirm that the person record is
Arturo's, you continue the hiring process by creating an employee work relationship with
the legal employer. Arturo will then have both nonworker and employee work
relationships with the same legal employer.
Hiring a Contact
Mary is married to Joe Wood, who is a contingent worker elsewhere in the enterprise.
Joe has identified Mary as an emergency contact; therefore, Mary already has a person
record. When you attempt to hire Mary Wood, if there is enough information in her
contact record to identify her, the application finds her existing person record. You
continue the hiring process by creating an employee work relationship with her new
legal employer. Otherwise, the hiring process creates both a person record and a work
relationship for Mary.

relationship; it is not part of the person record.
2. You create a person record when you:

C, you create a person record either when you add the person as a contact (for
example, as an emergency contact) in another person's record or when you create the
person's first work relationship in the enterprise

Manage Employment Information

Work Relationships
A work relationship is a relationship between a person and a legal employer. When you
create a person record, you also create that person's first work relationship. Once a
person record exists, you can create additional work relationships with the same or
different legal employers.
Work Relationship Types

Work relationships are of three types: employee, contingent worker, and nonworker.
The worker type that you select when creating the work relationship determines the
relationship type.
Work Relationships for Nonworkers

To be classified as a nonworker, a person must have a nonworker work relationship
with a legal employer. Having a work relationship does not mean that a person is
working for a legal employer; it means only that there is an association between the
person and the legal employer that is defined by the work relationship.
Primary Work Relationship

A worker or nonworker must have one, and only one, primary work relationship. All
other work relationships are nonprimary. A person's first work relationship is the primary
relationship, by default.

Assignments
An assignment is a set of information about a person's role in a legal employer. It
includes the person's job, position, pay, compensation, managers, working hours, and
location.
Primary Assignment
When you need information about a person from a single assignment, the person's
overall primary assignment supplies it.
You must identify one assignment as the primary assignment in each work relationship.
When a person has multiple work relationships, the overall primary assignment is the
primary assignment in the primary work relationship. In this example, assignment C is
the overall primary assignment because it is the primary assignment in the primary work
relationship.
Assignment Numbers
Assignments are identified by assignment numbers, which you can allocate either
manually or automatically. If you allocate numbers manually, they must be unique in the
enterprise.
The application creates numbers for automatic allocation by prefixing the person
number with the character E (for employee), C (for contingent worker), or N (for
nonworker). A person's second and subsequent assignments of the same type have a
suffix number (E45678, E45678-2, for example).

Employment Terms
A set of employment terms is essentially a controlling assignment. All assignments that
belong to a set of employment terms automatically inherit any values that you specify on
the employment terms. Employment terms are available in employee and nonworker
work relationships only; they are not available in contingent worker relationships.
Specifying Assignment Values in Employment Terms

Consider the attribute values of assignments A, B, and C. The job values are the same
in all assignments because they are inherited from the employment terms. The location
and working as a manager values can be different in each assignment because they are
not inherited from the employment terms in this example.
You always enter values for the work measures, managers, and extra information
attributes individually in each assignment, even if they have been enabled in
employment terms at your enterprise or legal employer. Values for these attributes are
never inherited by the associated assignments.

Editing Employment Terms

If you edit a value in employment terms when override at the assignment level is
allowed, each associated assignment inherits the changed value from the employment
terms only if the two values were the same before the change. If the two values were
different before the change, the assignment does not inherit the changed value from the
employment terms, as shown in the following example.
If override at the assignment level is not allowed, you edit the employment terms
instead and all associated assignments automatically inherit the changed values.

Instructor Note: Activity Timing
As the instructor, you must also perform the activities Hiring an Employee and Creating
a Work Relationship because you will use the person created in this activity, in the later
demos.
The course was designed for you to facilitate learners doing the specified activities, at

A work relationship is a relationship between a person and a legal employer.
2. Employment terms are available in all types of work relationships. (True / False)
False. Employment terms are available in employee and nonworker work relationships
only; they are not available in contingent worker relationships.

Instructor Note: Multiple Work Relationships

Students may want to know why they should create a second work relationship. A
second work relationship is necessary when:
 A second employment record (assignment) is needed in a different legal

employer
 A different worker type is needed such as a Contingent Worker or a Nonworker

Areas of Responsibility
Overview
 If you have a requirement to identify who is responsible for a group of people,

then you would define a person’s area of eesponsibility. For example, you can
assign people in a specific organization hierarchy to a Human Resource (HR)
representative.
 You can view the responsible person in the Work Contact list of those people.
You can also assign responsibilities for use in checklists when you create a
checklist template.
 Notifications for sensitive transactions can also have areas of responsibility

assigned, which would identify additional recipients of notifications. For example,
future-dated terminations could be identified as a sensitive transaction and would
remain hidden from everyone until an appropriate time. Any actions would be
handled by routing the notification to someone with an HR Representative
responsibility.

Setting Scope of Responsibility: Examples

There are several ways that you can set the scope of a responsibility. The following
examples illustrate these options.
Example 1: Setting Scope of Responsibility Based on Assignment Information
InFusion Corporation has offices in the US and UK. Elaine Barnes is the Human
Resources (HR) representative for workers based in the UK. You have assigned Elaine
the HR Representative responsibility for full time regular workers. You must now define
the scope of the responsibility to identify the people for whom Elaine has the HR
Representative responsibility. To define the scope, complete the fields as shown in this
table.
Example 2: Setting Scope of Responsibility Based on Name
Linda Smith is the benefits representative for a group of workers in InFusion US. She
holds the responsibility for workers within an alphabetical range (A to L). You have
assigned Terry the Benefits Representative responsibility. To define the scope of the
responsibility, complete the fields as shown in this table.
Example 3: Setting Scope of Responsibility Based on Payroll Information
Lindsay Allen is the payroll representative for the external training staff in InFusion
Corporation, US. You have assigned Lindsay the Payroll Representative responsibility;
you must now define the scope of the responsibility. Complete the fields as shown in
this table.


Reassigning a Responsibility
If you reassign a responsibility:
 The responsibility is immediately visible in the relevant assignment record of the

person to whom it is reassigned.
 The From Date of the responsibility is the current date, and there is no To Date.
In the assignment record of the person from whom the responsibility is being
removed, the current date is added to the To Date field only if there is currently
no To Date. Otherwise, the existing To Date remains unaltered.
 The scope of the responsibility remains the same.
 The change is visible in the Work Contacts list of affected people when the
records are next viewed.

Instructor Note: Areas of Responsibility and

Approvals
The Areas of Responsibility functionality is typically used in conjunction with security
and approvals. It is recommended that you set up areas of responsibility completely (for
the entire population) since a partial setup could conflict with the security and approvals
settings.

Employment Processes

Transfers, Promotions, and Terminations

Transfers and Temporary Assignments
Transfer
A transfer is the movement of a person within the same legal employer (a change of
location from Pleasanton to San Francisco in the US, for example).
When you transfer a person within the same legal employer the work relationship
remains unchanged. You make any necessary changes in the current assignment. If the
worker being transferred has other active assignments in the current work relationship,
they are terminated and their status is changed to Inactive- Payroll Eligible by default. If
you use employment terms, you can either transfer within the same employment terms
or create new employment terms. The existing set of employment terms and
assignments in the current work relationship are terminated if you create new ones, and
their status is set to Inactive- Payroll Eligible by default. You can override the default by
deselecting the assignments that you do not want to terminate.
Temporary Assignment
A temporary assignment is a transfer for a limited term (temporary secondment to
another department in the absence of a department head, for example). You end a
temporary assignment by initiating the End Temporary Assignment action and
specifying a return date. The temporary assignment is terminated and the original
assignments are reinstated automatically on the return date.
When you create a temporary assignment for a person in the same legal employer the
work relationship remains unchanged. If you use employment terms, you can either
create a temporary assignment with the same employment terms or create new
employment terms. The existing set of employment terms are suspended if you create
new ones. The existing assignments in the current work relationship are suspended and
their status is changed to Suspended-Payroll Eligible by default. You can override the
default by deselecting the assignments that you do not want to suspend; these
assignments retain their original statuses. The suspended objects become active again
when you end the temporary assignment.


Global Transfers and Temporary Assignments

Global Transfer
A global transfer is the transfer of a person to another legal employer (transfer of an
employee from a UK subsidiary to a US subsidiary, for example).
When you transfer a person to another legal employer, the source work relationship is
terminated automatically using the default values. You create a new work relationship in
the destination legal employer. The existing set of employment terms and assignments
in the source work relationship are terminated and their status is set to Inactive- Payroll
Eligible by default. You can override the default by deselecting the assignments that you
do not want to terminate; these assignments retain their original statuses and the work
relationship is not terminated. You can deselect all assignments except the primary
assignment and the current assignment.
Global Temporary Assignment

A global temporary assignment is the temporary transfer of a person to another legal
employer (US employee sent on a temporary secondment to the UK, for example). You
end a global temporary assignment by initiating the End Global Temporary Assignment
action and specifying a return date. The global temporary assignment is terminated and
the assignments in the source legal employer are reinstated automatically on the return
date.
When you create a global temporary assignment, the existing set of employment terms
and assignments in the source work relationship are suspended, and you create new
objects in the destination legal employer. The status of the assignments in the source
work relationship is set to Suspended-Payroll Eligible by default. You can override the
default by deselecting the assignments that you do not want to suspend; these
assignments retain their original statuses. The suspended objects become active again
when you end the temporary assignment.

Manage Direct Reports

You can reassign existing line reports to new managers, as of the same effective date.
When you reassign direct reports, changes occur at the assignment level for each
direct.
Reassigning Direct Reports

You can reassign all or selected direct reports to new managers. However, if the current
manager is being terminated, you must reassign all the reports. You can select the
same new manager for all the reports or a different new manager for each report. For
example, John Smith has been transferred to another department and his line reports
need to be reassigned. John has four line reports and you want to reassign them to new
line managers. You can reassign three of his reports to the same new line manager and
the fourth report to a different line manager. Some of John's existing reports may still be
reporting to him in his new department.
If a majority of directs are being reassigned to the same new manager, you can select
this manager as the proposed manager by default for all the reports, and later reassign
selected directs to different managers.
When reassigning reports, you cannot change the manager type. For example, if the
direct is a line report for the current manager, you can reassign the direct only as a line
report to a new manager, but not as a direct of other type, such as a project report or a
mentee.
The Manage Direct Reports task does not assign new roles to managers during the
reassign process. You must manage the assignment of roles through the role mapping
functionality. For persons who did not have reports before the reassign process, you
must assign manager roles.
Areas of Responsibility
Areas of responsibility associated with the manager's role are not affected by the
Manage Direct Reports task. For example, if a line manager also has an area of
responsibility as an HR representative, the HR reports cannot be managed from this
task.

13. Click Submit.
14. Click Yes.
15. Click OK.
At this point, you should have promoted the employee Edward Malone.

Terminations
When workers or nonworkers leave the enterprise, you terminate their work
relationships.
When you terminate a work relationship, any employment terms and assignments
associated with the work relationship are ended automatically. The status of the work
relationship and the associated employment terms and assignments are changed to
inactive on the day following the termination date. The period of service, both legal
employer and enterprise, ends on the termination date. The person becomes an ex-
employee or ex-contingent worker for that legal employer. The person's user access
and roles are revoked by default after the termination date. You can choose to revoke
user access earlier, as soon as the termination is approved. (This could mean revoking
user access before the termination date.)
Reversing Terminations
When you reverse a termination, any work relationships, assignments, and employment
terms previously ended are restored with the statuses prior to the termination. If the
termination caused reassignment of a primary work relationship or assignment, then the
reversal of the termination restores their primary statuses as they were before the
termination.
You can reverse a termination at any time provided the same legal employer has not
rehired the employee (or started a new placement for a contingent worker). This is
because a person cannot have multiple employee or contingent worker relationships
with the same legal employer at the same time. For example, consider that an
employee was terminated on April 15, and the same legal employer rehired the
employee on May 1. You want to reverse the termination on May 15, but you cannot do
so because this causes the employee to have two concurrent work relationships with
the same legal employer.

The course was designed for you to facilitate learners doing the specified activities, at
this point.

Mass Updates
Manage Mass Updates
You may need to update multiple records at one time, for example, transfer all workers
in a department together as part of a company reorganization. Mass update enables
you to update multiple records using a single update request.
Mass Assignment Change

Create a mass assignment change to update multiple worker assignments at once. The
action categorizes the type of assignment change. For a mass assignment change, you
can select from a list of employment-related actions such Assignment Change,
Transfer, or Promotion.
Mass Assignment Change Using Spreadsheet

You can download your data from the Verification page into a spreadsheet if there are
too many rows and if it is easier to make the changes in a spreadsheet format. Before
you can do this, you must have installed the desktop client Oracle ADF 11g Desktop
Integration and enabled the Trust Center setting Trust access to the VBA project object
in Microsoft Excel. You could make the changes offline, check in the data, and verify the
changes from within the spreadsheet. Using personalization, you can add additional
attributes on the Changes page; however, these attributes are hidden when you
download the data into a spreadsheet. To display the hidden attributes in the
spreadsheet, use the Unhide feature in Microsoft Excel. You can check in and verify the
data in the spreadsheet multiple times to accommodate revisions. After the final check
in, you must navigate to the Review page of the mass assignment change (in the
application) to submit the changes.
Assignments With Future Changes

You can either include or exclude assignments with future changes in the mass update.
If you include assignments with future changes, you must manually adjust those records
whose effective date of change is later than the mass update date, to resolve any
conflicts. For those assignments with changes existing on the same date of the mass
assignment change, the mass update is applied as the last change and previous
assignment changes are retained.

head, is an example of
temporary assignment
3. You can always reverse a termination. (True / False)

False. You can reverse a termination at any time provided the same legal employer has
not rehired the employee (or started a new placement for a contingent worker). This is
because a person cannot have multiple employee or contingent worker relationships
with the same legal employer at the same time.

or a mentee.

Lesson Highlights
By the end of this lesson, you should have learned how to:

Lesson Highlight Details

Add Person
HR specialists and line managers create new person records for employees, contingent
workers, nonworkers, and pending workers. The Add Person tasks include creating the
new person's first work relationship with the enterprise.
Manage Employment
HR specialists create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and
assignments for the workers to whom they have security access.
Change Employment
HR specialists and Line managers can edit work location, working hours, managers,
and other employment details.
Transfer, Promote, and Terminate Workers

HR specialists promote workers to whom they have security access. Line managers
promote their direct and indirect reports. HR specialists permanently transfer or create
temporary assignments for workers to whom they have security access. Line managers
permanently transfer their direct and indirect reports. Permanent transfers and
temporary assignments can be within the worker's current legal employer or to a
different legal employer. HR specialists terminate the work relationships of workers to
whom they have security access. Line managers terminate the work relationships of
their direct and indirect reports.
Manage Mass Updates

HR specialists and line managers can update multiple records using a single update
request. They can create a mass transfer to transfer multiple workers at once, within the
same legal employer, and make a mass assignment change using a spreadsheet.
Manage Direct Reports

HR specialists and line managers can reassign the existing direct reports of a manager
to new managers, when the manager is transferred or teminated. When direct reports
are reassigned, the effective date is the same for all the direct reports, and changes
occur at the assignment level for each direct.
