The lack of a reliable absence management system will result in high cost, risks and
productivity effects associated with employee absenteeism. Organizations need to
address the diverse and complex requirements that result from managing absence
policies around the globe. Absence Management enables configuration of absence
plans and transactions to eliminate manual processes, reduce extra costs and
implement requirements according to your policies, providing full absence visibility
for the different roles of the organization without compromising individual privacy or
company policy concerns. You are able to track absences -even for contingent
workers-, provide approvals, and an administrative framework, as well as insight into
entitlement details and balances. The integrated approval framework helps you to

HIGHLY CONFIGURABLE AND FLEXIBLE SETUP


REDUCES COST AND RISK
Absence Management allows easy configuration of your rules and policies allowing
you to define different criteria, rules, accrual definitions and absences without
modifying the application code. These rules and criteria can be shared across
absence plans and absence types and are maintained between upgrades. Absence
Management allows to create absence plans easily and quickly by the configuration
of period term, eligibility, accrual or entitlement definition, as well as payment
specifications. At the same time, Absence Management allows to create absence
types by the configuration of absence validations, carry over rules, administrative
tasks, and display appearances that will result in smart transactions for absence
request or recording.
In addition to the robust configurable options, you can use FastFormula, an Oracle-
provided web-based rules authoring facility. FastFormula can be used as an
alternative whenever the out of the box options provided do not match your
requirements.

REDUCE RISK WITH CONSISTENT ABSENCE POLICIES


Absence administrators have ultimate control over the configurations within Absence
Management, including eligibility rules, validations, accrual or entitlement definitions,
and a variety of other options. For example, administrators define and apply absence
validations and company-specific rules to prevent workers from entering an absence
below the balance limits set by your policy

REDUE COSTS BY PROVIDING AN ADMINISTRATIVE


FRAMEWORK
Absence Management provides a framework to configure a set of certificates by
absence type. The certifications can be initiated on demand or triggered when the
absence record is created. This framework allows management of medical
authorizations, late notification overrides, as well as payment suspensions and
resumptions.

CREATE SMART TRANSACTIONS AND STREAMLINE


PROCESSES TO INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY
Absence management systems are often challenged by the unique rules and user
interface required for different countries and different rules. Absence Management
allows you to configure the user interface based on legislation, roles, and absence
types which results in providing a smart interface and intuitive transactions for your

different users. While creating an absence type, you determine the information for
each specific transaction through the configuration of display features such as
showing or hiding a section or a field, enabling or disabling rules, and a variety of
other options. You have control to configure what information is shown to an
employee, or to an administrator, or both. Users can enter absence transactions thru
self-service dialogue or a calendar based user interface.

REDUCE RISK BY VIEWING AUDIT REPORTS


The Audit Framework includes absence records. If you have the Internal Auditor job
role, you can view audit reports for Absence Management

EXTRACTS
The HCM Extract feature allows the administrator to extract employee absence
information from the database. This can be transmitted to a third party, or via a third
party for further transformation

BUILT-IN EXTENSIBILITY
Applications are built so that a business user can adapt the application to suit their
personal or organizational needs. The key to this ‘tailor-ability’ lies in the usage of
metadata objects and services in the heart of the application architecture. Changes
and extensions to the application are stored as new layers over the delivered objects,
allowing for flexibility in an ‘upgrade-safe’ manner.
