LEAVE MANAGEMENT

ABSENCE MANAGEMENT

Oracle Fusion Absence Management is a configurable and flexible global solution that enables organizations to manage absences of their workforce. The framework provides the ability to define both complex and diverse absence plans. It integrates with the Oracle Fusion Global Payroll and Oracle Fusion Time and Labor products and provides dedicated work areas for the roles of Administrator and Employee.

CONCURRENT ABSENCES

You can now configure the concurrency rule so that a worker can record a concurrent absence for the same time period through multiple absence types.

Example: A worker falls ill during a vacation period. You want to enable the worker to record a sickness absence for some dates overlapping with the vacation dates. To ensure the worker is able to record a concurrent sickness absence, you must enable concurrency in the Display Features tab for one of the absence types. When you enable the concurrency rule, depending on the rules defined by the worker’s enterprise, the worker may be eligible for sickness entitlements.

STEPS TO ENABLE

To enable the concurrency rule:

1. In the Absence Administration work area, click Manage Absence Types. 2. On the Create Absence Type page, click Display Features. 3. In the Approval and Processing Rules section, select Enabled in the Concurrency row for

employees, managers, and administrators.

Enable Concurrency for an Absence Type

DEFERRED PROCESSING FOR SUBSEQUENT ABSENCES

Control the timing when an absence record is updated and subsequent absences are recalculated.

STEPS TO ENABLE

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

ABSENCE RE-EVALUATION FOR SCHEDULE CHANGES

The absence evaluation process has been enhanced to recognize a change in the assigned work schedule. So when the process is run, it recalculates the duration and entitlements used for that absence.

STEPS TO ENABLE

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS

This functionality does not apply when a worker’s schedule changes because of a change in an organization’s work schedule (for example, one associated to a department). Only schedules directly assigned to the worker will be recognized.

TERMINATION PROCESSING

The employment termination process is now streamlined with absence management to automatically update any scheduled absences to reflect the termination date.

For example, if a worker is terminated from employment on 13 October 2017, the following updates can occur to reflect the termination.

• If an absence starts on or after 13 October, it is withdrawn.

• If there is an absence spanning the termination date of October 13, the end date is automatically calculated as the termination date for the absence. For example, if the worker schedules an absence from Oct 9 to Oct 17, since the termination date is Oct 13, the end date of the absence is updated as Oct 13.

• If an absence is open-ended, the end date of the absence is October 13 since the termination date is calculated as the last day of the absence.

• Plan use is recalculated for all updated absences.

• All active accrual enrollments updated to reflect an end date of 13 October.

• Accruals are recalculated through 13 October.

• Final disbursements are transmitted to payroll, if final disbursement is configured.

This functionality does not extend to termination reversal.

STEPS TO ENABLE

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS

MANAGE ABSENCE RECORDS POST-APPROVAL ISSUES

In Release 12 Update 6, we delivered the ability to defer recalculation of subsequent absences. This can result in a subsequent absence erroring without user visibility. In addition, errors can occur after an absence is approved. To manage these impacts, we have added information to the administrative record grid to show these errors have occurred. This is the Processing Status, shown in the examples below.

The user has successfully submitted an absence and it is Awaiting approval. The manager approves the absence, but there has been a failure in post absence processing so the absence is stuck. In the past, the user interface did not indicate a problem. With this feature, the administrator is able to see that there is a post approval error and get additional information on the error.

Page 11: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

11

Selecting the View Error hyperlink gives the user very technical information about the source of the error and allows the user to review the Stack Log that caused the problem.

The user can run the post approval processing manually from within the administrative UI. This is done by selecting the Recalculate button on the grid and selecting Run Post Approval Process. All absences in an error status under Processing Status will be evaluated.

The user can also run Reprocess Future Absences to clear absences that provided an error as a result of the subsequent absences feature.

STEPS TO ENABLE

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

ABSENCE SUPPORT FOR CANADA

Oracle Fusion Absence Management supports the following Canada features and functionality:

GLOBAL ABSENCE ELEMENT UPTAKE

Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides the ability to process absences in Canada. There is integration between the absence management system and payroll. The information passed from absences to payroll is used to calculate the absence payment in payroll.

The absence element is created in payroll. When defining the absence plan, the absence element is associated to the plan, which serves as the connection between the absence and payroll systems. When an absence is recorded for the employee, the person’s absence calculation card is created and the absence plan is linked to the calculation component on the person's calculation card. Also, the daily and summary breakdown information is automatically transferred to payroll.

You can process the payroll that includes these absence entries and view the resulting absence balances on the person's Statement of Earnings (SOE). After you process and archive payments, you can also view the resulting absence balances on the person's payslip.

Rules and leave plans for absences vary throughout Canada. In general, they are defined by provincial Employment Standards, although employers can also define their own rules. Uptake of the global absence template will provide the primary classification of Absence and the additional secondary classifications of the following absence types:

• Vacation • Sickness • Maternity • Other

Absence and accrual balances are displayed in the following:

Page 13: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

13

• Payslip • Cheque advice • SOE • Global reports

o Payroll Activity Report

o Payroll Balance Report

o Payroll Gross-to-Net Report

o Payroll Register Report

o Element Result Report

As a summary, the high-level list of the steps involved in processing absences is noted below. These are in sequential order, as some of the setup may be used in a subsequent step. A number of the steps show the related pages displaying the configuration or results of the processing.

1. Create rate definitions to use in calculating accrual and liability balances. 2. Create absence element and eligibility.

Page 14: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

14

You must create the eligibility for the following elements:

<base element (for example, RLH CA Vacation)

<base element> accrual (for example, RLH CA Vacation Accrual)

<base element> entitlement (for example, RLH CA Vacation Entitlement)

3. Create derived factors, if applicable. 4. Create eligibility profile.

Page 15: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

KEY RESOURCES

Refer to the Canada Information Center in My Oracle Support at the links below for additional information on absences:

2102835.1)

ABSENCE ELEMENTS: DISCRETIONARY AND FINAL DISBURSEMENT ABSENCE PAYMENTS

Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides the ability to select different options for taxation, EI allocation, and EI hours for discretionary and final disbursement payments. Because these types of payments may be taxed differently than regular absence payments, this functionality was introduced to designate different values when creating the absence element.

When the absence element is created, two questions exist on the element template that creates additional shadow elements, based on the input to the question. The existing questions on the absence template are:

1. Does this plan enable balance payments when enrollment ends?

• This creates the Final Disbursement shadow element, if the value selected is Yes. If No, the element is not created.

2. Does this plan enable partial payment of balance?

• This creates the Discretionary Disbursement shadow element if the value selected is Yes. If No, the element is not created.

Page 28: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

28

When you select Yes to either question, you are presented with additional questions related to Tax Processing and Record of Employment. Previously, you could only select those options for the base element, but you are now able to select those options for both the Final and Discretionary Disbursement elements that are automatically created. You may select different values for each element if you choose to.

When you select Yes for the question, Does this plan enable balance payments when enrollment ends?, you are now presented with the additional options to specify the tax method, EI allocation and EI hours for the final disbursement payments. If you select No, the element is not created.

Page 29: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

29

When you select Yes for the question, Does this plan enable partial payment of balance?, you are now presented with the additional options to specify the tax method, EI allocation and EI hours for the discretionary disbursement payments. If you select No, the element is not created.

Page 30: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

30

Additionally, you may override the values selected during element creation for the tax method, EI hours and EI allocation for any of the shadow elements that are created (entitlement, discretionary disbursement and final disbursement). These values are stored as value definitions, so you override them using the Manage Calculation Value Definitions task.

The naming convention of the value definitions created for each shadow element is as given below:

Entitlement Element

• <Element Name> Tax Processing Type

• <Element Name> EI Allocation

• <Element Name> EI Hours

Discretionary Disbursement Element

• <Element Name> Disc Tax Processing Type

• <Element Name> Disc EI Allocation

Page 31: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

31

• <Element Name> Disc EI Hours

Final Disbursement Element

• <Element Name> Final Tax Processing Type

• <Element Name> Final EI Allocation

• <Element Name> Final EI Hours

To override the value, use the Manage Calculation Value Definitions task, select the value definition name to edit, and make the change to the value definition. This overridden value is used during the payroll process, instead of the value initially configured at element creation.

If you override the values, they must be valid. The text values you must use to override the various types of value definitions are as given below:

Tax Processing

• Regular: R • Nonperiodic: N • Lump Sum: L

EI Allocation

• Date earned: DATE_EARNED • Date paid: DATE_PAID

EI Hours

• Yes: Y • No: N

Page 32: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

32

The following is an example of where an override to the tax processing type is entered. The ‘N’ noted in the text column indicates that the tax will be calculated using the nonperiodic method.

Page 33: Oracle Workforce Management Cloud · human resource information for ... Oracle Fusion Human Capital Management for Canada provides ... There is integration between the absence management

STEPS TO ENABLE

There are no steps necessary to enable this feature.

TIPS AND CONSIDERATIONS

This functionality is only applicable for new absence elements that you create. Previously configured absence elements will not support this functionality.
