Contextual Journeys are displayed:
Only on Thursdays
When initiating a Quick Action
In page or section headers
Via the employees' "Journeys" tile
Contextual Journeys in Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud provide relevant guidance or tasks based on the user’s current context within the application. Per the "Using Journeys" guide, these journeys are displayed in page or section headers, appearing dynamically when a user is on a relevant page (e.g., during a promotion process, a Contextual Journey might appear in the transaction header). This distinguishes them from Guided Journeys, which are accessed via the Journeys tile. Option A (only on Thursdays) is nonsensical and incorrect. Option B (Quick Action) relates to transaction initiation, not Contextual Journeys. Option D (Journeys tile) applies to Guided Journeys, not Contextual ones. Thus, Option C is correct.
When an HR specialist searches for Awards and Honors, such as "PhD," the Person Gallery page displays only the direct reports of the HR specialist who comply with the honor. When the HR specialist searches for areas of expertise, such as "Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud," it displays all the employees of the organization who have Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud as their areas of expertise. Identify the reason for this behavior.
HR does not have access to the "Experience and Qualification" card.
HR does not have access to other departments where employees are "PhD."
Areas of expertise is public information.
PhD is a sensitive keyword and is used elsewhere in the person’s information.
HR has access to Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud department.
In Oracle HCM Cloud’s Person Gallery, search results depend on data visibility and security:Awards and Honors(e.g., "PhD") are restricted by the HR specialist’s area of responsibility (AOR), typically limited to direct reports unless broader access is granted.Areas of Expertise(e.g., "Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud") are designated as public information by default, visible to all users with Person Gallery access, regardless of AOR, unless explicitly restricted via security profiles.
Option A is incorrect—the "Experience and Qualification" card is accessible but scoped to AOR. Option B misattributes the issue to departments—visibility is AOR-based. Option D (sensitive keyword) lacks evidence. Option E (department access) is irrelevant. Option C correctly identifies areas of expertise as public, explaining the broader search results per Oracle’s security model.
A human resource specialist is promoting an employee. While promoting an employee, the human resource specialist is required to enter the promotion date, promotion action, and promotion reason. However, the promotion reason list of values does not list an appropriate reason. Which two options can help the human resource specialist understand the Action framework available in the application?
Actions are seeded and cannot be defined by a user.
Action Types are seeded and cannot be defined by a user.
Action Reasons are seeded and cannot be defined by a user.
Action Reasons are seeded and can be defined by a user.
The Action framework in Oracle HCM Cloud consists of Action Types, Actions, and Action Reasons:
B: True—Action Types(e.g., Promotion, Termination) are seeded by Oracle and cannot be user-defined, providing a fixed categorization structure.
D: True—Action Reasons(e.g., "Career Advancement") include seeded values but can be user-defined via Manage Action Reasons, allowing customization to meet specific needs like the missing promotion reason.
A: False—Actions (e.g., "Internal Promotion") can be user-defined and linked to seeded action types.
C: False—Action Reasons are customizable, not fully seeded.
Options B and D clarify the framework’s flexibility and constraints, helping the specialist address the issue per Oracle’s documentation.
Grade structures (grades, grade rates, and grade ladder) were configured for your customer and the required employee assignment data was migrated to the system. However, there was a change in requirement and the customer decided to delete some grades because they were no longer used. When you try to delete one such grade from the system, the system throws an error. Identify three possible reasons for the system error. (Choose three.)
There are assignment records of one or more employees associated with this grade.
The grade has grade rates defined.
The grade is linked to a grade ladder.
A grade cannot be deleted and can only be made inactive by changing the status to "Inactive".
A grade cannot be deleted and can only be end-dated.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
In Oracle HCM Cloud, grades are part of the compensation and job structure. Deleting a grade is restricted if it’s referenced elsewhere in the system.
Option A ("There are assignment records of one or more employees associated with this grade"): True. If an employee’s assignment references the grade, deletion is blocked to maintain data integrity, per the "Implementing Global Human Resources" guide.
Option B ("The grade has grade rates defined"): True. Grade rates (e.g., salary ranges) linked to the grade prevent deletion until removed.
Option C ("The grade is linked to a grade ladder"): True. Grades in a grade ladder (progression structure) cannot be deleted until unlinked.
Option D ("A grade cannot be deleted and can only be made inactive by changing the status to 'Inactive'"): False. Grades can be deleted if no dependencies exist; inactivation is an alternative, not a requirement.
Option E ("A grade cannot be deleted and can only be end-dated"): False. End-dating is an option, but deletion is possible if constraints are cleared.
What are four benefits of Enterprise Structure Configurator (ESC)?
Cannot roll back an enterprise that is created through ESC
Can create multiple configurations to test multiple scenarios
Can roll back an enterprise configuration after loading it
Can review the enterprise configuration before loading it
Can create all organizational structures at once
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
The Enterprise Structure Configurator (ESC) offers several benefits:
B: Allows creation of multiple configurations for testing different scenarios, enhancing flexibility.
C: Supports rollback of configurations post-loading if adjustments are needed, ensuring reversibility.
D: Enables review of the configuration before final loading, reducing errors.
E: Facilitates simultaneous creation of all organizational structures, streamlining setup.
A manager returned from the U.S. Subsidiary to their source location, the U.K. Subsidiary, after a period of three months. What should a Human Resources representative do to reinstate the manager's records in the source legal employer?
Deploy a Descriptive Flexfield to capture the return date. Update this segment with the actual return date to reinstate the record.
Entering the return date will automatically reinstate the record on the return date.
Create another assignment with the return date as the effective date.
Initiate the End Global Temporary Assignment action and specify a return date. The global temporary assignment is terminated and the assignments in the source legal employer are reinstated automatically on the return date.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
For temporary assignments across legal employers (e.g., U.S. to U.K. Subsidiary), Oracle HCM Cloud provides the Global Temporary Assignment feature.
Option D ("Initiate the End Global Temporary Assignment action and specify a return date. The global temporary assignment is terminated and the assignments in the source legal employer are reinstated automatically on the return date") is correct. When a manager returns from a temporary assignment, the HR representative uses the "End Global Temporary Assignment" action, specifying the return date. This automatically terminates the temporary assignment and reinstates the original assignments in the source legal employer (U.K. Subsidiary), as per the "Using Global Human Resources" guide.
Option A (Descriptive Flexfield) is a custom workaround, not a standard process.
Option B is incorrect; entering a date alone doesn’t trigger reinstatement.
Option C (new assignment) bypasses the temporary assignment framework.
As an HR Specialist, you have been asked to create and assign a new schedule to employees that will be working a new shift. What steps should you follow to meet this requirement?
Create a work pattern, create a shift, create a work schedule, assign the schedule through work schedule assignment.
Create a shift, create a work pattern, assign the work pattern through work schedule assignment.
Create a shift, create a work pattern, create a work schedule, assign the schedule through work schedule assignment.
Create a shift, create a work pattern, create a work schedule, assign the shift through the Manage Employment task.
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, creating and assigning a work schedule involves a structured process to define working hours for employees. The components include shifts (specific time blocks), work patterns (sequences of shifts), and work schedules (combinations of patterns and rules), which are then assigned via work schedule assignments.
Option A: This sequence is incorrect because it places the work pattern before the shift. A work pattern relies on predefined shifts, so the shift must be created first.
Option B: This option skips the creation of a work schedule, which is a critical step. Assigning a work pattern directly without a work schedule does not align with Oracle’s process, as the work schedule is the entity assigned to employees.
Option C: This is the correct sequence:
Create a shift: Define the specific working hours (e.g., 9 AM - 5 PM).
Create a work pattern: Combine shifts into a repeating sequence (e.g., 5 days on, 2 days off).
Create a work schedule: Define the overall schedule, including the pattern and any exceptions.
Assign the schedule through work schedule assignment: Link the schedule to employees via the Work Schedule Assignment task.This matches Oracle’s documented process for managing work schedules.
Option D: Assigning a shift directly via the Manage Employment task is not a valid method. Work schedules (not individual shifts) are assigned to employees, making this option incorrect.
The correct answer isC, as it follows the complete and logical flow outlined in Oracle’s "Using Global Human Resources" guide.
A Human Resources specialist has created a checklist template that includes the category "Offboarding" and the action "Termination." When an employee retires from the organization and their work relationship with the legal employer is terminated, there is no Offboarding Journey or checklist assigned to the retired employee in the Manage Allocated Checklist section. What is the reason?
Action Type was not defined for the checklist.
Action Reasons were not defined in the checklist.
The Action associated with the checklist does not match the Action selected during the termination process.
The checklist template is not enabled for automatic allocation.
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, checklist templates are used to automate tasks, such as offboarding journeys, for employees based on specific events like termination. The scenario describes a situation where an HR specialist created a checklist template categorized as "Offboarding" with the action "Termination," but no offboarding journey or checklist is assigned to a retired employee after their work relationship is terminated. The Manage Allocated Checklist section, accessible via the Journeys or Checklist Tasks work areas, displays checklists assigned to employees. The absence of the checklist indicates a mismatch or configuration issue in the template’s setup.
Option A: Action Type was not defined for the checklist.
This option is incorrect. In Oracle HCM Cloud, the Action Type is a higher-level classification (e.g., Hire, Termination) that groups actions, but checklist templates are associated with specific Actions (e.g., Termination, Retirement) rather than requiring a separate Action Type definition. The scenario specifies that the checklist includes the action "Termination," implying the action is defined. Oracle documentation does not mandate a distinct Action Type field for checklist templates to trigger allocation, making this option irrelevant.
Extract: “When you create a checklist template, you associate it with an action, such as Hire or Terminate, to trigger the checklist for specific events.” (OracleOracle Global Human Resources Cloud: Using Global Human Resources, Section: Checklist Templates).
Option B: Action Reasons were not defined in the checklist.
This option is incorrect. Action Reasons (e.g., Retirement, Resignation) provide additional context for an action and can be used to filter checklist allocation, but they are not mandatory for checklist assignment. If no action reasons are specified in the checklist template, the checklist should still be allocated based on the action (e.g., Termination) unless specific reasons are configured to restrict it. The scenario does not indicate that the checklist requires specific action reasons, and the lack of an assigned checklist suggests a broader issue with the action itself, not the absence of reasons.
Extract: “You can optionally specify action reasons to filter when a checklist is allocated, but this is not required for the checklist to trigger.” (Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud: Implementing Global Human Resources, Section: Configuring Checklists).
Option C: The Action associated with the checklist does not match the Action selected during the termination process.
This is the correct answer. In Oracle HCM Cloud, checklist templates are triggered based on the Action selected during an employee’s transaction, such as termination. The scenario states the checklist is associated with the action "Termination," but the employee’s work relationship is terminated due to retirement. In Oracle, Retirement is a distinct action (with a lookup code like RETIREMENT) separate from Termination (e.g., VOLUNTARY_TERMINATION). If the HR specialist selected Retirement as the action during the termination process, but the checklist is configured for Termination, the checklist will not be allocated, as the actions do not match. This explains why no offboarding journey or checklist appears in the Manage Allocated Checklist section for the retired employee.
Extract: “The checklist is allocated to a person when the action specified in the checklist template matches the action performed in the transaction. For example, a checklist for Termination won’t trigger if the action is Retirement.” (Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud: Using Global Human Resources, Section: Checklist Allocation).
Additionally, the 24C What’s New documentation clarifies: “Ensure the checklist action aligns with the transaction action to avoid allocation issues.” (Oracle Fusion Cloud Human Resources 24C What’s New, Section: Journeys and Checklists).
Option D: The checklist template is not enabled for automatic allocation.
This option is incorrect. Checklist templates in Oracle HCM Cloud are enabled for allocation by default when created, provided they are Active and associated with an action. The scenario does not indicate that the template is inactive or disabled for allocation, and the issue is specifically tied to the retirement event not triggering the checklist. If automatic allocation were disabled, the template would not function for any termination actions, but the question focuses on the retirement case, pointing to an action mismatch.
Extract: “Checklist templates are active for allocation unless explicitly disabled or set to inactive status.” (Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud: Implementing Global Human Resources, Section: Checklist Template Setup).
Why this answer?
The key issue is that the employee’s termination was processed with the Retirement action, which does not match the Termination action configured in the checklist template. Oracle’s checklist allocation logic requires an exact match between the transaction action and the checklist’s action, as documented. This mismatch prevents the offboarding journey from being assigned, making C the correct answer. The other options either misalign with Oracle’s functionality or do not directly address the retirement-specific issue.

You can set the "Archive After Months" for Journey Templates when you create a Journey from the Explore tab.
Which statement is correct?
You can make the "Archive After Months" field optional.
You can enter duration for "Archive After Months" only after entering duration for the "Purge After Months" field.
You cannot make the "Archive After Months" field optional.
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, Journey Templates are used to create and manage employee journeys, such as onboarding or training programs, through the Explore tab in the Journeys application. The Archive After Months field determines how long a journey remains active before it is archived, helping manage data lifecycle. The question asks about the behavior of this field when creating a journey from a template.
Option A: You can make the "Archive After Months" field optional.This option is incorrect. According to Oracle documentation, the Archive After Months field is mandatory when configuring a Journey Template. This ensures that journeys are archived after a defined period, preventing indefinite retention and supporting data management policies. The field requires a numeric value (e.g., 6 months), and there is no option to make it optional during template creation in the Explore tab.
Option B: You can enter duration for "Archive After Months" only after entering duration for the "Purge After Months" field.This option is incorrect. The Purge After Months field, which determines when a journey is permanently deleted after archiving, is separate from Archive After Months. Oracle documentation specifies that Archive After Months is a required field, and its value must be set independently of Purge After Months. There is no dependency requiring the purge duration to be entered first. In fact, Purge After Months may also be mandatory, but it does not gate the entry of Archive After Months.
Option C: You cannot make the "Archive After Months" field optional.This is the correct answer. When creating a Journey Template via the Explore tab, the Archive After Months field is mandatory, as confirmed by Oracle’s 24C documentation. This field ensures that journeys are archived after a specified period (e.g., 12 months), aligning with data retention policies. The system enforces this requirement to maintain consistency and prevent journeys from remaining active indefinitely, and no configuration option exists to make it optional.
Why this answer?The mandatory nature of the Archive After Months field supports Oracle’s design for lifecycle management of journeys, ensuring data is archived systematically. Neither making the field optional nor tying it to Purge After Months is supported, making C the only accurate statement.

In HCM Cloud, you can define an employee's work time availability in several ways. In which order does the application search for an employee's schedule before applying it to an assignment?
Standard working hours, Primary work schedule, Employment work week, then Published schedules
Employment work week, Published schedules, Primary work schedule, then Standard working hours
Published schedules, Employment work week, Primary work schedule, then Standard working hours
Primary work schedule, Employment work week, Published schedules, then Standard working hours
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, the application follows a specific hierarchy when determining an employee's work schedule to apply to an assignment. This process ensures that the most relevant and specific schedule is selected based on the configuration of the employee's work time availability. The correct order of precedence for searching an employee's schedule is outlined in the official Oracle documentation.
According to the Oracle HCM Cloud documentation, the application searches for schedules in the following order:
Published schedules: These are schedules from other scheduling applications integrated with Oracle HCM Cloud or manually published schedules that take precedence.
Employment work week: This is configured on the employee's employment record and defines the standard work week applicable to the employee.
Primary work schedule: This is linked to specific workforce structure levels (e.g., enterprise, department, or individual assignment) and takes precedence based on the lowest level of assignment.
Standard working hours: These serve as the default fallback if no other schedules are defined.
The exact extract from the Oracle documentation states:
"You can set up an individual's work time in different ways. An person's official schedule for a selected time period is automatically determined using this information: ... This flow chart shows you the order that the application searches for someone's schedule, before applying it to the assignment. The published schedule is built using the employment work week, primary work schedule, or standard working hours for each person. It can also be built using published schedules from other scheduling applications."
This indicates that the application prioritizes published schedules first, followed by the employment work week, then the primary work schedule, and finally standard working hours as the last resort. The documentation further clarifies that schedules assigned at lower workforce structure levels (e.g., individual assignment) take precedence over those at higher levels (e.g., enterprise), but the overall search order remains as listed.
Why the other options are incorrect:
Option A (Standard working hours, Primary work schedule, Employment work week, then Published schedules): This is incorrect because standard working hours are the last fallback, not the first, and published schedules have higher precedence than all others.
Option B (Employment work week, Published schedules, Primary work schedule, then Standard working hours): This is incorrect because published schedules are checked before the employment work week, not after.
Option D (Primary work schedule, Employment work week, Published schedules, then Standard working hours): This is incorrect because primary work schedules are not the first to be checked; published schedules take precedence, and employment work week comes before primary work schedule.
Which of the following statuses allows for additional values to be created?
Payroll Status
Assignment Status
HR Status
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
In Oracle HCM Cloud, statuses control various aspects of a worker’s record, and the ability to create additional values depends on the status type:
A (Payroll Status): This refers to payroll-specific statuses (e.g., Processed, Paid), which are system-defined and tied to payroll processes. These are fixed and cannot be extended with additional values.
B (Assignment Status): This governs the status of a worker’s assignment (e.g., Active, Suspended). Oracle allows you to create additionalUser-Defined Assignment Statusesvia the "Manage Assignment Status" task, enabling customization (e.g., "On Leave – Special Circumstance") while preserving system statuses like Active or Inactive.
C (HR Status): This is a broad term, but in context, it typically refers to the Person-level status (e.g., Active, Terminated), which is system-defined and not extensible with additional values.
The Oracle documentation highlights that Assignment Status is unique in allowing user-defined values to meet specific business needs, while Payroll and HR Statuses remain locked to maintain consistency. Thus,Bis the correct answer.
In which two ways can you add rates to a grade?
First add the rates for each step, and then add the grade to a grade ladder.
Add the rates separately by using the Manage Grade Rates task.
Use the default grade rates that are available after creating grades.
Add rates when creating grades by using the Manage Grades task.
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, grades define levels within a job or position structure, and grade rates specify the pay ranges or values associated with those grades. The question asks for two ways to add rates to a grade. Oracle provides multiple methods to configure grade rates, either during grade creation or as a separate task, to support flexibility in compensation management.
Option A: First add the rates for each step, and then add the grade to a grade ladder.This option is incorrect because Oracle does not require rates to be added for each step before associating a grade with a grade ladder. In Oracle HCM Cloud, grades can exist independently or within a grade ladder, and rates are associated with grades, not steps, unless using a grade ladder with steps (a specific configuration). Even in such cases, rates are defined at the grade level or step level within the ladder, and the process does not mandate adding rates first. Grade ladders with steps involve defining step rates after the grade is included in the ladder, not before. Oracle documentation does not support this sequence as a standard method for adding rates to a grade, making this option invalid.
Option B: Add the rates separately by using the Manage Grade Rates task.This is a correct answer. The Manage Grade Rates task in the Setup and Maintenance work area allows users to define grade rates independently of grade creation. This task enables the creation of rate values (e.g., minimum, midpoint, maximum salaries, or hourly rates) and associates them with existing grades. For example, after creating a grade called "Grade 1," you can use Manage Grade Rates to add a salary range (e.g., $50,000–$70,000) for that grade. This method is useful when rates need to be updated or added post-grade creation, offering flexibility for compensation adjustments. Oracle documentation confirms this as a standard approach for managing grade rates.
Option C: Use the default grade rates that are available after creating grades.This option is incorrect because Oracle HCM Cloud does not automatically provide default grade rates upon grade creation. When a grade is created via the Manage Grades task, no default rates are assigned unless explicitly configured by the user. While sample data or predefined setups in some environments might include rates, Oracle’s standard functionality requires users to define rates manually, either during grade creation or separately via Manage Grade Rates. The absence of automatic default rates in the documentation rules out this option.
Option D: Add rates when creating grades by using the Manage Grades task.This is a correct answer. The Manage Grades task allows users to create grades and define associated grade rates within the same process. When creating or editing a grade in the Manage Grades task, you can navigate to the Rates tab (or equivalent section) to specify rate values, such as minimum, midpoint, and maximum salaries or hourly rates. For instance, while creating "Grade 2," you can add a rate range of $60,000–$80,000 directly. This method streamlines grade setup by combining grade and rate definition, and Oracle documentation supports this as a primary way to add rates.
Why these two methods?Both Manage Grade Rates (Option B) and Manage Grades (Option D) are explicit methods supported by Oracle HCM Cloud for adding rates to grades. Manage Grades allows rates to be defined during grade creation or editing, ideal for initial setup, while Manage Grade Rates provides a standalone task for adding or updating rates later, offering flexibility for ongoing maintenance. These methods align with the customer’s need to associate pay ranges or values with grades, ensuring compliance with compensation structures.

A worker in an organization will be holding a new position because the worker holding the position has gone on maternity leave. When the second worker returns from maternity leave, the former will be moved back to his or her old position. His or her payroll and legal reporting will be the same even after the position changes. Which transfer method should be used for the first movement of the said worker?
Transfer
Temporary Assignment
Global Transfer
Global Temporary Assignment
Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud provides various transfer actions to manage worker movements. The scenario involves a temporary position change with a return to the original position, and payroll/legal reporting remaining unchanged.
Option A: A Transfer is a permanent move to a new assignment or position, not suitable for a temporary scenario with a planned return.
Option B: Correct. A Temporary Assignment allows a worker to take on a new position or assignment for a fixed period, with the system retaining the original assignment for automatic reversion. Payroll and legal reporting can remain tied to the primary assignment, fitting the requirement.
Option C: Global Transfer is for permanent moves across legal employers or countries, not applicable here.
Option D: Global Temporary Assignment is for temporary international moves, not relevant for a same-entity, same-reporting scenario.
The correct answer isB, as per "Using Global Human Resources" on temporary assignments.
The Human Resource Representative of the organization is trying to set up the Jobs and Positions for the enterprise. What are the three options that the Human Resource Representative should be aware of regarding Jobs and Positions? (Choose three.)
When using positions, the grades that are specified for the job become the default grades for the position
Jobs and Positions are shared by Sets
Jobs are shared by Sets and Positions are assigned to Business Units
Positions may be added to a specific department and location
Per the "Managing Workforce Structures" guide:
Option A: True. Grades defined for a Job default to the Position when created.
Option B: False. Jobs are Set-enabled, but Positions are tied to business units, not shared by Sets.
Option C: True. Jobs are shared across Sets; Positions are specific to Business Units.
Which two fields can be synchronized by Position?
Business Unit
Department
Legal Employer
Location
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
Position Synchronization in Oracle HCM Cloud allows certain fields to automatically populate based on the position assigned to a worker. The two fields that can be synchronized are:
B: Department, as positions are often tied to specific departments, and this link can sync data.
D: Location, as positions are associated with work locations, enabling synchronization.
In an organization, a line manager is going on a long vacation and wants all his approvalnotifications to flow to his supervisor for approval in his absence. How can he accomplish this task?
A Vacation rule can be set under the Preferences section of worklist notification's Human Capital Management server.
A system administrator always has to reassign the approval notification to the supervisor in the line manager’s absence.
The application automatically delegates the approval to his supervisor based on the leave applied for by the line manager.
He has to configure new approval routing policies.
Oracle HCM Cloud’s BPM Worklist allows users to setVacation Rules(also called delegation rules) under the Preferences section of their worklist notifications. The line manager can configure a rule to reroute all approval tasks to his supervisor during a specified period (e.g., vacation dates). This is user-driven, requires no administrator intervention, and doesn’t alter underlying approval policies.
Option B (admin reassignment) is manual and unnecessary. Option C (automatic delegation) isn’t triggered by leave requests—it requires explicit setup. Option D (new policies) is overkill for a temporary absence. Option A correctly identifies the Vacation Rule as the solution, per Oracle’s workflow features.
Which three options define Enterprise Structures Configurator (ESC)?
The tool creates a structure of divisions, legal entities, business units, and reference data sets.
The tool creates a structure of divisions, legal entities, business units, and departments.
The tool creates a structure of divisions that may then be manipulated by the administrator.
After defining the enterprise structure and the job/position structures, the administrator can review them, make any necessary changes, and then load/rollback the final configuration.
It is an interview-based tool that guides through the process of setting up a basic enterprise structure.
The Enterprise Structures Configurator (ESC) in Oracle HCM Cloud is a wizard-based tool for defining enterprise structures:
A: True—ESC creates divisions, legal entities, business units, and reference data sets (e.g., job codes, locations), forming the enterprise framework.
B: False—Departments are operational units, not a primary ESC output (they’re managed post-setup).
C: False—ESC doesn’t focus solely on divisions; it builds a broader structure.
D: True—After ESC defines structures (including jobs/positions), administrators can review, adjust, and load or rollback configurations via FSM.
E: True—ESC uses an interview-based approach to guide users through setup.
Options A, D, and E align with ESC’s purpose and functionality per Oracle’s documentation.
What values on the Enterprise HCM Information task can you override on the Manage Legal Employer Information task?
Work day information, initial person number, employment model, position synchronization configuration, worker number generation
Work day information, person number generation method, employment model, position synchronization configuration, worker number generation
Work day information, user account generation, employment model, position synchronization configuration, worker number generation
Work day information, employment model, position synchronization configuration, worker number generation
The "Manage Enterprise HCM Information" task sets global defaults, while "Manage Legal Entity HCM Information" allows overrides for specific legal employers.
Option A: "Initial person number" is not a field; it’s likely meant as person number generation, but the term is incorrect.
Option B: Correct. You can override:
Work day information (e.g., standard hours),
Person number generation method (e.g., manual/automatic),
Employment model (e.g., single/multiple assignments),
Position synchronization configuration (e.g., enable/disable),
Worker number generation (e.g., employee/contingent worker numbering).
Option C: "User account generation" is managed via security setup, not legal employer settings.
Option D: Misses person number generation, an overrideable field.
The correct answer isB, per "Implementing Global Human Resources" on enterprise vs. legal entity settings.
Event Alerts supported by Alerts Composer, are based on the filters delivered by Oracle. Alerts Composer is a tool that allows you to send informational notifications to Oracle HCM Cloud users by email and worklist.
Which statement is true about Event Alerts being triggered?
Event Alerts are triggered when a specific event occurs in the application. You cannot modify the triggering criteria for notifications.
Event Alerts are triggered when a specific event occurs in the application. You can modify the frequency in which the alert is triggered by using the Run Options tab within the alert.
Event Alerts are triggered when a specific event occurs in the application. You can modify the triggering criteria for notifications by modifying the Groovy script within the specific alert.
The Alerts Composer in Oracle HCM Cloud is a tool for configuring informational notifications sent via email or worklist, based on predefined events. Event Alerts are triggered by specific application events, such as a new hire or promotion. The question asks about the behavior of these alerts, particularly regarding the modification of triggering criteria.
Option A: Event Alerts are triggered when a specific event occurs in the application. You cannot modify the triggering criteria for notifications.This is the correct answer. Event Alerts in Alerts Composer are based on filters delivered by Oracle, tied to specific events (e.g., employee termination, assignment change). Oracle documentation states that the triggering criteria for these alerts are predefined and cannot be modified by users, as they are linked to system events controlled by Oracle’s seeded configurations. Users can customize notification content (e.g., message text) or recipients, but the event conditions themselves are fixed to ensure system stability and consistency.
Option B: Event Alerts are triggered when a specific event occurs in the application. You can modify the frequency in which the alert is triggered by using the Run Options tab within the alert.This option is incorrect. Alerts Composer does not provide a Run Options tab for Event Alerts, nor does it allow modification of the frequency of event-based triggers. Event Alerts are triggered immediately when the associated event occurs (e.g., a new hire record is saved). While Scheduled Alerts allow frequency settings (e.g., daily or weekly runs), Event Alerts are event-driven, and their triggering is not controlled by a frequency setting, making this option invalid.
Option C: Event Alerts are triggered when a specific event occurs in the application. You can modify the triggering criteria for notifications by modifying the Groovy script within the specific alert.This option is incorrect. Event Alerts in Alerts Composer do not allow modification of triggering criteria via Groovy scripts. Oracle restricts customization of event triggers to maintain system integrity, and Groovy scripts are used in other contexts (e.g., for validations or calculations), not for altering Event Alert conditions. Documentation confirms that triggering criteria are Oracle-delivered and non-editable.
Why this answer?The fixed nature of Event Alert triggers ensures standardized behavior across HCM Cloud implementations. Users can configure aspects like notification templates or recipients, but the core event conditions (e.g., “trigger when an employee is hired”) are locked, aligning with Oracle’s design and making A the correct statement.

Identify three correct statements about Workforce Life Cycle. (Choose three.)
Line managers can create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and assignments for all workers.
HR specialists can create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and assignmentsfor the workers to whom they have security access.
HR specialists and line managers can create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and assignments for all the workers.
Line Managers can transfer their direct and indirect reports only.
The Add Person tasks include creating a new person's first work relationship with the enterprise.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
The Workforce Life Cycle in Oracle HCM Cloud covers hiring, managing, and terminating workers, with roles like HR specialists and line managers having specific capabilities based on security.
Option B ("HR specialists can create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and assignments for the workers to whom they have security access"): True. HR specialists’ abilities are governed by data security profiles, limiting them to authorized workers, per the "Implementing Global Human Resources" guide.
Option D ("Line Managers can transfer their direct and indirect reports only"): True. Line managers can initiate transfers for their reporting structure (direct and indirect reports), constrained by their security access, as noted in the "Using Global Human Resources" guide.
Option E ("The Add Person tasks include creating a new person's first work relationship with the enterprise"): True. The "Add Person" task (e.g., Hire an Employee) establishes the initial work relationship, per standard functionality.
Option A ("Line managers can create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and assignments for all workers"): False. Line managers are limited to their reports, not all workers.
Option C ("HR specialists and line managers can create and manage work relationships, employment terms, and assignments for all the workers"): False. Both roles are restricted by security, not granted universal access.
You are working with a customer whose enterprise operates in a country that requires contract information for employees.
Which two employment models can be configured to meet the customer's needs?
Contract assignment
Single assignment with contracts
Multiple assignments
Multiple contract - Single assignment
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, employment models define how work relationships, assignments, and contracts are structured for employees to meet organizational and regulatory requirements. The scenario indicates that the customer operates in a country requiring contract information for employees, implying that the system must support the tracking of employment contracts. Oracle provides several employment models, including Single Assignment, Single Assignment with Contract, Multiple Assignments, and Multiple Contract - Single Assignment, among others. The task is to identify which two models explicitly support contract information.
Option A: Contract assignmentThere is no employment model in Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud explicitly named Contract assignment. Oracle documentation defines employment models such as Single Assignment, Single Assignment with Contract, and Multiple Contract - Single Assignment, but Contract assignment is not a recognized term or model. It may be confused with contract-related configurations, but it does not exist as a distinct model. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
Option B: Single assignment with contractsThis is a valid employment model and a correct answer. The Single Assignment with Contract model is designed for scenarios where an employee has one work relationship, one assignment, and one or more employment contracts associated with that assignment. This model supports countries that mandate contract information, such as start and end dates, contract types (e.g., fixed-term or permanent), and other contractual terms. The model allows the enterprise to track contract details in the Employment Terms section, ensuring compliance with local regulations. For example, an employee might have a single assignment as a "Consultant" with multiple fixed-term contracts linked to it, each with distinct terms. This model is ideal for the customer’s requirement to track contract information.
Option C: Multiple assignmentsThe Multiple Assignments model allows an employee to have one work relationship with multiple assignments, each representing different roles or jobs within the organization (e.g., an employee working as both a "Teacher" and an "Administrator"). While this model supports flexibility in managing multiple roles, Oracle documentation does not indicate that it inherently includes contract information as a mandatory component. Contracts can be associated with assignments in other models (e.g., Single Assignment with Contract), but the Multiple Assignments model focuses on assignment multiplicity rather than contract tracking. Since the customer’s requirement emphasizes contract information, this model is not the best fit and is incorrect.
Option D: Multiple contract - Single assignmentThis is a valid employment model and a correct answer. The Multiple Contract - Single Assignment model is specifically designed for scenarios where an employee has one work relationship, one assignment, and multiple contracts linked to that assignment, with each contract potentially having different terms or conditions. This model is used in countries where regulatory requirements mandate tracking multiple contracts for a single role, such as in cases of temporary or project-based contracts. For example, an employee in a single assignment as a "Developer" might have multiple contracts for different projects, each with unique durations or clauses. This model directly supports the customer’s need to track contract information and is appropriate for the scenario.
Why these two models?Both Single Assignment with Contract and Multiple Contract - Single Assignment explicitly support the tracking of contract information, which is the core requirement of the scenario. The Single Assignment with Contract model is suitable when an employee typically has one primary contract (or a sequence of contracts) tied to their assignment, while the Multiple Contract - Single Assignment model is used when multiple concurrent or sequential contracts are needed for regulatory compliance. These models allow the customer to capture contract details like type, duration, and terms, ensuring adherence to local laws. The other options (Contract assignment and Multiple Assignments) do not align with Oracle’s predefined models or the requirement for contract information.

As an implementation consultant, you have configured several rules in Transaction Design Studio within the test environment. How do you migrate these changes to your production environment?
Use the Configuration Package capabilities of Functional Setup Manager to export the configurations.
Use the Configuration Set Migration tool within the Configuration > Migration work area.
Use the Configuration Package capabilities within the Configuration > Migration work area.
Transaction Design Studio changes can't be migrated from one instance to another. You will need to reconfigure the transactions within your production environment.
In Oracle HCM Cloud, Transaction Design Studio (TDS) configurations (e.g., rules for transactions like Promote or Hire) are migrated between environments using theConfiguration Set Migration tool, accessible via the Configuration > Migration work area. This tool allows you to export TDS rules as a configuration set from the test environment and import them into production, preserving customizations like field visibility or validation rules. The process involves selecting the TDS configurations, exporting them as a .zip file, and importing them into the target instance, ensuring consistency across environments.
Option A (Functional Setup Manager’s Configuration Package) is used for broader setup data (e.g., enterprise structures), not TDS-specific rules. Option C misplaces the Configuration Package under the Migration work area, which is incorrect. Option D is false—TDS changes are migratable. Option B correctly identifies the Configuration Set Migration tool as the method, per Oracle’s migration guidelines.
For the Change Manager transaction, the first-level approval is set to the Application Role type. The name of the application role is HR Specialist Sales. In the Change Manager approval rule configuration, the Enable Auto Claim option is deselected. Which two actions take place when the transaction for manager change is initiated for employees?
The transaction goes into error because it was not auto-claimed
The transaction has to be approved by all HR Specialist Sales representatives for it to be approved
The transaction goes for approval to all the workers who inherit the HR Specialist Sales role
One of the HR Specialist Sales representatives should "Claim" the transaction for it to be assigned for approval
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, approval rules for the Change Manager transaction are configured per the "Securing HCM" guide:
With "Enable Auto Claim" deselected, the transaction isn’t automatically assigned to one approver; it goes to all users with the HR Specialist Sales role (Option C).
An organization is running a fitness program. They want to identify a Fitness Representative who will be responsible for a group of people in the organization. How should you set this up?
Deploy a Key Flexfield to capture the information.
Deploy a Descriptive Flexfield to capture the information.
Create a new job Fitness Representative and associate that to the person.
Define the person's area of responsibility to reflect Fitness Representative.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
Oracle HCM Cloud allows assigning responsibilities to individuals for specific tasks or groups, such as a Fitness Representative for a fitness program. The setup should leverage existing functionality efficiently.
Option D ("Define the person's area of responsibility to reflect Fitness Representative") is correct. In Oracle HCM, "Areas of Responsibility" (AOR) can be defined via the "Manage Areas of Responsibility" task to assign specific duties (e.g., Fitness Representative) to a person for a group of workers. This is a standard feature for designating responsibilities without requiring new jobs or flexfields, as outlined in the "Implementing Global Human Resources" guide.
Option A ("Deploy a Key Flexfield to capture the information") is incorrect. Key Flexfields (KFFs) are used for structured data (e.g., job codes), not responsibilities.
Option B ("Deploy a Descriptive Flexfield to capture the information") could work for custom attributes but is overkill when AOR is available.
Option C ("Create a new job Fitness Representative and associate that to the person") is unnecessary; a job defines a role, not a specific responsibility for a program.
An IT company’s consulting department based in Bangalore goes for two team outing events every year. However, the support department, also based in Bangalore, goes for four team outing events every year. All employees in these departments go for the respective team outing events. How should you define the calendar events?
Use Project Manager Hierarchy as the Hierarchy type for the calendar event.
Use Geographic Hierarchy as the Hierarchy type for the calendar event.
Use Line Manager Hierarchy as the Hierarchy type for the calendar event.
Use Absence Approval Hierarchy as the Hierarchy type for the calendar event.
Use Organization Hierarchy as the Hierarchy type for the calendar event.
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, calendar events (e.g., team outings) are defined via the "Manage Calendar Events" task and assigned using a hierarchy to determine applicability. The scenario requires events specific to departments (consulting vs. support) in the same location (Bangalore).
Option A: Project Manager Hierarchy is for project-based structures, not department-specific events.
Option B: Geographic Hierarchy applies to location-based events (e.g., Bangalore vs. Mumbai), but both departments are in Bangalore, so it’s too broad.
Option C: Line Manager Hierarchy targets individuals under specific managers, not entire departments uniformly.
Option D: Absence Approval Hierarchy is for absence approvals, not calendar events like outings.
Option E: Correct. Organization Hierarchy (e.g., via Manage Organization Trees) allows events to be tied to specific departments (consulting and support), ensuring the consulting department gets two outings and the support department gets four, regardless of location or manager.
The correct answer is E, per "Using Global Human Resources" on calendar event setup.
A user has reported that one of his or her saved transactions was not available anymore from the transaction page. What could be the reason for this behavior?
The saved transaction was withdrawn by HR
An identical transaction that was initiated for the person by another user was applied to the database
The saved transaction was rejected by the approval authority
The saved transaction was future dated. The application displays only those transactions where the transaction date is less than or equal to system date
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, saved transactions can disappear from view if overridden, as per the "Using Global Human Resources" guide. When an identical transaction (e.g., same person and action) is initiated by another user and applied to the database, it supersedes the saved one, removing it from the user’s view (Option B). Option A (withdrawn by HR) isn’t a standard process for saved transactions. Option C (rejected) would leave it visible with a status.Option D (future dated) affects visibility but not removal. Thus, Option B is correct.
Select three correct Workforce Structure definitions.
Facility
Geography
Division
Department
Country
Location
Workforce Structures in Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud define organizational and operational entities.
Option A: Facility is not a standard workforce structure; it might be a custom term.
Option B: Geography is part of the geography hierarchy, not a workforce structure.
Option C: Correct. Division is a workforce structure for grouping operations (e.g., Line of Business).
Option D: Correct. Department is a workforce structure for organizational units.
Option E: Country is a geography element, not a workforce structure.
Option F: Correct. Location is a workforce structure defining physical work sites.
The correct answers areC,D, andF, per "Implementing Global Human Resources" on workforce structures.
When creating a Legal Entity, to allow for configuration of Work Day and Employment Model information on the Manage Legal Entity HCM Information task, which check box must be selected for configurable data to appear?
Payroll Statutory Unit
Legal Entity Identifier
EIN or TIN
Legal Employer
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
When creating a Legal Entity in Oracle HCM Cloud, selecting theLegal Employercheck box designates the entity as an employer, unlocking additional configuration options in the Manage Legal Entity HCM Information task, such as Work Day Information and Employment Model.
A(Payroll Statutory Unit) enables payroll-related settings but not necessarily Work Day or Employment Model.
Availability (work time) can be defined in HCM Cloud in different ways. In what order does the application search for an employee’s schedule, before applying it to an assignment?
Standard working hours, Primary work schedule, Employment work week, Published schedules
Published schedules, Employment work week, Primary work schedule, Standard working hours
Published schedules, Primary work schedule, Employment work week, Standard working hours
Employment work week, Published schedules, Primary work schedule, Standard working hours
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, an employee’s work schedule is determined by a precedence order, as outlined in the "Managing Workforce Schedules" guide. The system searches:
Published schedules(specific schedules assigned to the worker, highest priority).
Employment work week(defined in the employment record).
Primary work schedule(a general schedule linked to the worker or job).
When initiating the Change Manager transaction for employees, the first-level approval is assigned to the HR Specialist Sales application role. In the approval rule configuration for Change Manager, the option to Enable Auto Claim is not selected. What happens in this case?
The transaction goes for approval to all the workers who inherit the HR Specialist Sales role and one of the HR Specialist Sales representatives needs to “Claim” the transaction for it to be assigned for approval
The transaction has to be approved by all HR Specialist Sales representatives for it to be approved; if one of the HR Specialist Sales representatives rejects the transaction, others can still approve it
The transaction goes for approval to all the workers who inherit the HR Specialist Sales role; the transaction will be auto-claimed and assigned randomly to anyone who has the HR Specialist Sales role
The transaction goes into error because it was not auto-claimed and if one of the HR Specialist Sales representatives rejects the transaction, others can still approve it
In Oracle HCM Cloud’s BPM Worklist, when an approval task (e.g., Change Manager) is assigned to an application role like "HR Specialist Sales" with multiple inheritors, the "Enable Auto Claim" setting determines assignment behavior. If Auto Claim is disabled (not selected), the task is sent to all users with the role as a shared notification. One of these users must manually "Claim" the task in the worklist to take ownership and proceed with approval or rejection. Until claimed, the task remains unassigned to a specific individual, ensuring only one approver acts after claiming.
Option B (all must approve) misrepresents the process—only one approval is needed post-claim. Option C (auto-claimed randomly) contradicts the disabled Auto Claim setting. Option D (error) is incorrect—disabling Auto Claim doesn’t cause errors; it just requires manual claiming. Option A accurately describes the behavior: the task goes to all HR Specialist Sales role holders, and one must claim it, per Oracle’s approval framework.
A client requires that promotion approvals should go to a static set of three users in a sequential manner, with the approval process continuing to the next user if the prior approver is not available. What setup is required to meet this requirement?
The default functionality is that if any approver is not present, then the transaction gets auto-approved.
While configuring Approval Group List Builder, select "Allow empty groups" as True.
All approvers must be present in the system; else, the promotion transaction fails.
While configuring Approval Group List Builder, select "Allow empty groups" as False.
Enable a descriptive flexfield to capture the approvers in the required sequence and create Approval Group List Builder.
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, promotion approvals are configured via BPM Worklistusing Approval Groups. The requirement for a static, sequential group of three users with failover to the next approver requires specific settings.
Option A: Incorrect. Default behavior does not auto-approve if an approver is unavailable unless explicitly configured (e.g., via timeout rules).
Option B: "Allow empty groups" as True skips the group if no approvers are available, which could bypass the sequence, not continue it.
Option C: Incorrect. The system doesn’t fail if approvers are absent; it depends on configuration.
Option D: Correct. Setting "Allow empty groups" to False ensures the approval group (with three static users) is mandatory, and sequential routing continues to the next available approver if one is unavailable (e.g., via vacation rules or reassignment).
Option E: Flexfields don’t control approval routing; they’re for data capture, not process flow.
The correct answer isD, as per "Using Global Human Resources" on approval setup.
Which is a new feature available on the Redwood Cancel Work Relationship page?
Ability to track employee attendance and absences
Capability to record additional information during work relationship cancellation
Option to generate automated performance reports
The Redwood Cancel Work Relationship page in Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud introduces enhancements designed to improve user experience and streamline the process of terminating work relationships. According to Oracle’s 24C and subsequent release notes, one of the key new features is the ability to record additional information during the cancellation of a work relationship. This includes selecting actions and action reasons for the cancellation and utilizing the action occurrence extensible flexfield (EFF) to store extra details in an "Additional Info" section, which is displayed only when configured for the action occurrence EFF. This feature enhances flexibility and allows organizations to capture enterprise-specific data during the termination process.
Option A: Ability to track employee attendance and absencesTracking employee attendance and absences is not a feature associated with the Redwood Cancel Work Relationship page. Attendance and absence management are handled through separate modules, such as Oracle Absence Management or Time and Labor, and are not integrated into the work relationship cancellation process. Oracle documentation does not mention attendance or absence tracking as part of this page’s functionality, making this option incorrect.
Option B: Capability to record additional information during work relationship cancellationThis is the correct answer. Oracle’s 24C release notes specify that the Redwood Cancel Work Relationship page allows users to configure multiple actions for the cancellation process and includes an action occurrence EFF in the Additional Info section. This enables the storage of extra information, such as specific reasons or contextual details, during the cancellation. The feature is supported by configuration in the Business Rules to show the Additional Info section and is available only on the Redwood page, not the responsive version, enhancing the user experience with greater customization.
Option C: Option to generate automated performance reportsGenerating automated performance reports is not a feature of the Redwood Cancel Work Relationship page. Performance reports are typically managed through Oracle Performance Management or Talent Management modules, and no Oracle documentation indicates that the Cancel Work Relationship page includes this capability. This option is unrelated to the termination process and is therefore incorrect.

Which three settings on the Manage Enterprise HCM Information Task can be overwritten at the Manage Legal Entity HCM Information task?
Global Name Language
Employment Model
Person Number Generation
Work Day Information
Position Synchronization
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
The Manage Enterprise HCM Information task sets global defaults, some of which can be overridden at the legal entity level:
B: Employment Model (e.g., 2-tier, 3-tier) can be customized per legal entity to reflect local requirements.
D: Work Day Information (e.g., hours per day) can be adjusted for specific legal entities.
E: Position Synchronization settings can be overridden to control position data inheritance at the legal entity level.
You hired an employee on January 1, 2015. This employee got married on June 12, 2015. You received a request from the employee on July 11, 2015, to change their last name from the date of the marriage. You changed the last name of the employee as requested on the same day. What effective start date for this new employee is displayed by the system as of August 15, 2015?
July 11, 2015
June 12, 2015
January 1, 2015
August 15, 2015
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, the "effective start date" for an employee typically refers to the start date of their person record or a specific change, depending on context. Here, the question involves a name change backdated to the marriage date, and we need the effective start date displayed as of August 15, 2015.
Option A: July 11, 2015, is the date the change was requested and processed. However, the name change was applied retroactively to the marriage date, not this transaction date.
Option B: Correct. June 12, 2015, is the marriage date, and the request was to update the last name effective from that date. In Oracle HCM, when you update a person’s name with an effective date (via Manage Person or a similar task), the system records this as the effective start date of the name change. As of August 15, 2015, the system displays the name change effective from June 12, 2015, reflecting the backdated update.
Option C: January 1, 2015, is the hire date and the initial effective start date of the person record. However, the name change overrides this for the specific attribute (last name), and the question implies the effective date tied to the update.
Option D: August 15, 2015, is the "as of" date, not an effective start date for any change or the employee’s record.
The correct answer isB, as the effective start date of the name change is June 12, 2015, per "Using Global Human Resources" on managing person data with effective dating.
Which set of enabled objects are used for partitioning reference data?
Enterprise, legal entity, business unit, position
Department, location, jobs, grades
Jobs, grades, salary plan, rates
Legal entity, department, division, location
Reference data partitioning in Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud separates data sets to control visibility and usage across the organization. Enabled objects for partitioning are typically workforce structures shared across business units.
Option A: Enterprise and legal entity are structural, not reference data objects; position is not typically partitioned.
Option B: Correct. Department, location, jobs, and grades are reference data objects that can be partitioned using reference data sets (e.g., via Manage Reference Data Sets) to restrict access by business unit or other criteria.
Option C: Salary plans and rates are not standard partitioned objects; jobs and grades are, but the set is incomplete.
Option D: Division is not a standard partitioning object; legal entity is structural, not reference data.
The correct answer isB, as per "Implementing Global Human Resources" on reference data management.
You are working with a client who has many users responsible for creating and maintaining Checklists. This customer wants to control who can access which Checklist Categories. How can you achieve this?
This is not currently an option in the application.
You can provide a role access to either of "Specific categories" or "All categories" options.
You can use Category Security to control what categories users see when creating templates on the Create Checklist Template page and when creating a personal journey in the Journeys app. For example, you can restrict a line manager to create journeys only of the Compensation category.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
Note: This appears to be a "choose two" question based on the original phrasing, though only one "Correct selection" was marked. I’ve interpreted it as requiring two correct answers based on Oracle functionality.
Option B ("You can provide a role access to either of 'Specific categories' or 'Allcategories' options"): True. Role-based security in Oracle HCM Cloud allows assigning access to all checklist categories or specific ones via custom roles, configured in "Manage Roles," as per the "Implementing Global Human Resources" guide.
Option C ("You can use Category Security to control what categories users see when creating templates on the Create Checklist Template page and when creating a personal journey in the Journeys app"): True. Category Security restricts visibility and creation rights by category (e.g., Compensation), applied to templates and journeys, detailed in the "Using Checklists" guide.
Option A ("This is not currently an option in the application"): False. Oracle supports category-level access control.
In order for a worker to complete a checklist item before their hire date, the following must be done?
The worker must have been added as an applicant in Recruiting Cloud
The worker needs to be added as an Employee with a future hire date
The worker must be added as a Pending Worker with an effective date equal to or less than the system date and a future hire date
Checklists in Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud can be assigned to workers before their official hire date, typically during onboarding. The "Using Global Human Resources" guide under "Checklists and Onboarding" explains that for a worker to access and complete checklist tasks prior to their hire date, they must be added as a Pending Worker. A Pending Worker record requires an effective date (start date of the record) that is equal to or earlier than the current system date, allowing system access, and a future hire date (when they transition to an Employee). This setup enables pre-hire tasks, such as completing forms, to be actioned. Option A (applicant in Recruiting Cloud) doesn’t grant HCM access, and Option B (Employee with future hire date) doesn’t allow pre-hire task completion before the hire date is effective. Option C is precise and correct.
Which option represents the basis on which approval routing policies can be defined?
Employee Supervisor Hierarchy, Position Hierarchy, Grades, Approval Groups, Organization Hierarchy
Employee Supervisor Hierarchy, Position Hierarchy, Job Levels, Approval Groups
Employee Supervisor Hierarchy, Position Hierarchy, Job Levels
Employee Supervisor Hierarchy, Position Hierarchy, Job Levels, Approval Groups, Organization Hierarchy
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, approval routing policies determine how transactions (e.g., promotions, transfers) are routed for approval. These policies are configured using the "Manage Approval Transactions" task and rely on specific hierarchies and groups.
Option B ("Employee Supervisor Hierarchy, Position Hierarchy, Job Levels, Approval Groups") is correct. Oracle HCM Cloud supports the following bases for defining approval rules:
Employee Supervisor Hierarchy: Routes approvals through the employee’s reporting structure.
Position Hierarchy: Uses the position hierarchy if positions are implemented.
Job Levels: Routes based on job level differences (e.g., requiring higher-level approval for significant changes).
Approval Groups: Predefined groups of approvers for specific transactions.
The "Implementing Global Human Resources" guide confirms these as the standard components.Grades and Organization Hierarchy (e.g., Department or Division) are not directly used in approval routing policies, making other options incorrect.
Option A includes "Grades" and "Organization Hierarchy," which are not standard bases.
Option C omits "Approval Groups," which is a key component.
Option D adds "Organization Hierarchy," which is not supported for approval routing.
As an implementation consultant, you are in the process of building the enterprise structure. Which three facts about Legislative Data Group must you be aware of?
Legislative Data Groups do not span enterprises.
Legislative Data Groups can span enterprises.
Legislative Data Group supports the configuration of objects with a strong legislative context, such as payroll, absence types, elements, and rates of pay.
Each Legislative Data Group can contain only one legal entity that acts as a payroll statutory unit.
It is required to associate country and currency details while defining Legislative Data Group.
Legislative Data Groups (LDGs) in Oracle HCM Cloud manage legislative-specific data:
A: True—LDGs are tied to a single country’s legislation and don’t span enterprises (multiple countries).
B: False—LDGs are country-specific, not enterprise-spanning.
C: True—LDGs support objects like payroll, absences, and elements with legislative context.
D: False—An LDG can include multiple legal entities sharing the same payroll statutory unit.
E: True—Country and currency are mandatory when defining an LDG to align with legislative requirements.
Options A, C, and E reflect Oracle’s LDG characteristics per the documentation.
Your customer is using Position Synchronization and wants some flexibility to override, in certain cases, fields that are synchronized. Which two choices below can accommodate this request?
Even if override is allowed, the “Synchronize from Position” attribute is displayed only for the professional user.
If override is allowed at Enterprise HCM Information or Legal Entity level, the user can select values to be excluded from synchronization.
To exclude a specific assignment from being synchronized, the user needs to set the “Synchronize from Position” attribute to No.
By leaving that attribute blank at the position.
Position Synchronization in Oracle HCM Cloud allows assignments to inherit values from associated positions, but flexibility to override synchronized fields is supported. Option B is correct because when position synchronization is enabled at the Enterprise (via Manage Enterprise HCM Information) or Legal Entity level (via Manage Legal Entity HCM Information), the "Allow Override at Assignment" option can be selected. This allows users to choose which synchronized attributes (e.g., department, job) can be overridden at the assignment level, excluding them from synchronization as needed. Option C is also correct because the "Synchronize from Position" attribute (also called Position Override in HCM Data Loader) on an individual assignment can be set to "No" to exclude that specific assignment from synchronization entirely, providing granular control.
Option A is incorrect because the "Synchronize from Position" attribute visibility is not restricted to professional users—it’s available in the UI or via HCM Data Loader for authorized users. Option D is invalid because leaving the attribute blank at the position level does not affect synchronization behavior—synchronization is controlled at the assignment or configuration level, not by null values at the position. Thus, B and C are the two correct choices.
Your customer wants to reorder the cards on the Person Gallery page in reverse alphabetical order. What should you do to reorder the cards?
Enable "Allow Reorder" in Portrait Settings for all the portrait cards.
Change the order of the cards by using Portrait Settings.
Change the default card to "User Account Details" in Portrait Settings.
Drag and slide the portrait cards across the pane in any order. Use Personalization to edit and reorder the portrait cards.
Enable "Allow User Control" in Portrait Settings for all the portrait cards.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, the Person Gallery page displays various cards (e.g., Employment, Personal Information, etc.) that provide quick access to worker details. To reorder these cards, including arranging them in reverse alphabetical order, the system does not provide a direct configuration option within Portrait Settings to automatically sort cards alphabetically or reverse alphabetically. Instead, reordering is achieved through personalization, which allows administrators or users with appropriate permissions to manually adjust the layout of the Person Gallery page.
Option D ("Drag and slide the portrait cards across the pane in any order. Use Personalization to edit and reorder the portrait cards") is correct because Oracle HCM Cloud supports personalization of the user interface via tools like Page Composer. In Page Composer, an administrator can access the Person Gallery page, enter personalization mode, and drag and drop the cards into the desired order, such as reverse alphabetical. This change can then be saved and applied globally or for specific roles, depending on the personalization scope. The Oracle documentation, specifically "Oracle Applications Cloud: Configuring and Extending Applications," details how Page Composer enables such UI modifications.
Option A ("Enable 'Allow Reorder' in Portrait Settings") is incorrect because there is no "Allow Reorder" setting in Portrait Settings that directly controls card ordering on the Person Gallery. Portrait Settings typically manage visibility and default card selection, not manual reordering.
Option B ("Change the order of the cards by using Portrait Settings") is misleading. While Portrait Settings allow some configuration (e.g., setting the default card), they do not provide a mechanism to reorder all cards manually or systematically in reverse alphabetical order.
Option C ("Change the default card to 'User Account Details' in Portrait Settings") only affects which card appears first by default and does not address reordering the full set of cards.
Option E ("Enable 'Allow User Control' in Portrait Settings") relates to giving users control over certain card settings, but it does not enable reordering of cards on the gallery page.
As a consultant in your company, you are required to set up names and details of schools, colleges, universities, and so on, so that users can select from this list when entering their qualifications such as degrees. Identify the correct setup task in Functional Setup Manager > Define Workforce Profiles.
Define Talent Profile Content > Manage Profile Content Items
Define Talent Profile Content > Manage Content Subscribers
Define Talent Profiles > Manage Profile Types
Define Talent Profile Content > Manage Educational Establishments
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, educational establishments (schools, universities) are maintained as part of the talent profile to support qualification tracking.
Option A: "Manage Profile Content Items" defines specific content (e.g., skills), not educational institutions.
Option B: "Manage Content Subscribers" controls access to content, not the list itself.
Option C: "Manage Profile Types" defines profile structures, not specific data likeinstitutions.
Option D: Correct. "Manage Educational Establishments" under Define Talent Profile Content allows setup of a selectable list of schools, colleges, and universities for qualifications.
The correct answer isD, per "Implementing Global Human Resources" on workforce profiles.
Select the correct order in which scheduled tasks must be configured within Define Availability in FSM.
Shifts, Schedules, Patterns, Calendar Events
Patterns, Calendar Events, Shifts, Schedules
Calendar Events, Shifts, Patterns, Schedules
Schedules, Patterns, Shifts, Calendar Events
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
The "Define Availability" task in the Functional Setup Manager (FSM) is part of Workforce Management setup in Oracle HCM Cloud. It involves configuring components that determine worker availability, and these must be set up in a logical order due to their interdependencies. Let’s break this down step-by-step:
Patterns: A Pattern defines a repeating sequence of work (e.g., 5 days on, 2 days off). It’s the foundational building block because it establishes the basic structure of availability before specific days or exceptions are applied. You configure Patterns first to define the recurring rhythm of work.
Calendar Events: These define specific dates or exceptions (e.g., holidays like Christmas or company-specific closures). Calendar Events come next because they overlay exceptions onto the Pattern, adjusting availability for specific instances. For example, a Pattern might assume work every Monday, but a Calendar Event can mark a Monday holiday as non-working.
Shifts: A Shift specifies the daily time frame of work (e.g., 9 AM-5 PM). Shifts are configured after Patterns and Calendar Events because they apply time details to the days defined by the Pattern, adjusted by Calendar Events. For instance, a Shift defines the hours worked on a day marked as "available" by the Pattern and not overridden by a Calendar Event.
Schedules: Finally, Schedules tie everything together by combining Patterns, Calendar Events, and Shifts into a complete availability plan assigned to workers or groups. Schedules are the last step because they depend on the prior components being defined.
The Oracle documentation outlines this sequence—Patterns, Calendar Events, Shifts, Schedules—as the recommended order to ensure each component builds on the previous one without gaps or errors. OptionBmatches this sequence precisely, making it the correct answer. Other options (e.g., A starts with Shifts, which lacks a Pattern foundation) violate these dependencies.
Which task in the Setup and Maintenance work area generates position codes automatically?
Manage Legal Entity HCM Information
Manage Position Synchronization
Manage Enterprise HCM Information
Manage Position Codes
Manage Positions
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, position codes are unique identifiers for positions, and their automatic generation is configured at the enterprise level.
Option A: "Manage Legal Entity HCM Information" sets legal employer-specific options (e.g., worker numbers) but not position codes.
Option B: "Manage Position Synchronization" handles position-to-assignment synchronization, not code generation.
Option C: Correct. "Manage Enterprise HCM Information" allows enabling automatic position code generation across the enterprise, typically via the Position Code Generation setting.
Option D: There’s no "Manage Position Codes" task; this is a fictitious option.
Option E: "Manage Positions" is for creating/editing positions but doesn’t configure automatic code generation.
The correct answer isC, per "Implementing Global Human Resources" on enterprise setup.
You have a business requirement to default the Business Title of a worker when a user updates a worker's assignment by using one of the worker employment responsive flows. How can you enable this feature and which options are available for defaulting?
Enable the Default Business Title field on the Legal Entity HCM Information task, and select Retain User Changes, Automatically Update Based on Position Change, or Allow Override if Position Data is Overridden.
Enable the Default Business Title field on the Enterprise HCM Information task, and select Retain User Changes, Automatically Update Based on Job Change, or Automatically Update Based on Position Change.
Enable the ORA_PER_EMPL_DEFAULT_BUSINESS_TITLE_FROM profile option, and select Retain User Changes, Automatically Update Based on Job Change, Automatically Update Based on Position Change, or Allow Override if Position Data is Overridden.
Enable the ORA_PER_EMPL_DEFAULT_BUSINESS_TITLE_FROM profile option, and select Retain User Changes, Automatically Update Based on Job Change, or Automatically Update Based on Position Change.
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
Defaulting the Business Title in Oracle HCM Cloud during assignment updates is controlled by a profile option, not HCM Information tasks.
Option D ("Enable the ORA_PER_EMPL_DEFAULT_BUSINESS_TITLE_FROM profile option, and select Retain User Changes, Automatically Update Based on Job Change, or Automatically Update Based on Position Change") is correct. The profile option "ORA_PER_EMPL_DEFAULT_BUSINESS_TITLE_FROM" determines how the Business Title is populated in responsive flows (e.g., Change Assignment). Available settings are:
Retain User Changes: Keeps manual edits.
Automatically Update Based on Job Change: Updates from the job title.
Automatically Update Based on Position Change: Updates from the position title. This is detailed in the "Implementing Global Human Resources" guide under profile options.
Option A and B reference HCM Information tasks, which don’t control this feature.
Option C adds "Allow Override if Position Data is Overridden," which is not a valid setting for this profile option.
Your users have commented that time to assign an Area of Responsibility is wasted, due to the fact that they have to keep adding the same scope to several users, and were wondering if there was functionality to allow for scopes to be preset and used multiple times. How can this be achieved?
Areas of Responsibility Templates
Areas of Responsibility Preferences
Areas of Responsibility Duplication
Areas of Responsibility Default Settings
In Oracle HCM Cloud,Areas of Responsibility (AOR) Templatesallow administrators to predefine AOR scopes (e.g., departments, locations) and reuse them across multiple users. This feature, accessible via the Manage Areas of Responsibility task, streamlines assignment by saving common configurations as templates, reducing repetitive manual entry. Users can then apply these templates when assigning AORs, meeting the requirement for preset, reusable scopes.
Option B (Preferences) relates to user settings, not AOR configuration. Option C (Duplication) isn’t a formal feature—duplicating AORs is manual. Option D (Default Settings) doesn’t exist for AORs. Option A correctly identifies AOR Templates as the solution, per Oracle’s functionality.
Which three of the following tasks must be configured during an HCM implementation?
Manage Enterprise HCM Information
Manage Legal Entity HCM Information
Manage Person
Manage Business Unit
Update Employment
Full Detailed in Depth Explanation:
During an HCM implementation, foundational configuration tasks include:
A: Manage Enterprise HCM Information sets global HR settings (e.g., employment model, work day information) critical for the enterprise.
B: Manage Legal Entity HCM Information configures legal entity-specific HR data, such as employment models or payroll statutory units.
C: Manage Person establishes person records and configurations, a core component of HR management.
Your customer wants to know how many employees are leaving the organization on their own. What is the correct sequence of steps that you need to perform to meet this requirement?
Create a new action > Associate it with an existing action type > Create a new action reason and use it during termination.
Create a new action reason and associate it with the available action type. Use it during termination.
Create a new action type > Create a new action > Create a new action reason and use it during termination.
Create a new action type > Create a new action reason and use it during termination.
Create a new action > Create a new reason and use it during termination.
To track voluntary terminations in Oracle HCM Cloud, you need a custom action and action reason:
Create a new action(e.g., "Voluntary Exit") via Manage Actions.
Associate it with an existing action type(e.g., "Termination") to categorize it correctly.
Create a new action reason(e.g., "Personal Reasons") and link it to the action, then use it during termination transactions.
This sequence enables reporting via tools like OTBI. Option B skips the action, limiting granularity. Options C and D create a new action type, which is unnecessary—existing types suffice. Option E misses associating the action with a type. Option A follows Oracle’s recommended process for detailed tracking.
A Human Resource Specialist is hiring a new employee in the application. While creating the employee record, he enters personal information and employment details and, when submitting the transaction, encounters an error. Part of the error message reads: "NewPersonEmploymentApproval to NewPersonEmploymentApproval Rules NewPersonRuleSet failed with Business Fault: null. Check the underlying fault. Check target SOA component for cause." The Human Resource Specialist raises a service request with the internal support team. What is the cause of this error?
A security profile needs to be defined for the Human Resource Specialist to hire a person.
The BPM task NewPersonEmploymentApproval is not set up properly.
The Human Resource Specialist does not have the required privilege for the New Person Employment process.
The Update Person Keyword Search process must be run before hiring a person.
The error message indicates a failure in the approval process during the "New Person Employment" transaction, pointing to an issue with the BPM (Business Process Management) workflow rather than security or pre-process requirements.
Option A: Security profiles control data visibility, not approval process execution. Thiswouldn’t cause a BPM fault.
Option B: Correct. The error references "NewPersonEmploymentApproval," a BPM task. A "Business Fault: null" suggests a misconfiguration in the approval ruleset (e.g., missing approver, invalid rule) within BPM Worklist, preventing the transaction from completing.
Option C: Lack of privilege would typically block access to the hire action entirely, not trigger a mid-process BPM fault.
Option D: The "Update Person Keyword Search" process enhances search functionality but is unrelated to hiring approvals.
The correct answer isB, as detailed in "Implementing Global Human Resources" under Approval Configuration.
An HR representative enters employee details in the application as part of the hiring process. On the Review page, the HR representative notices that Person Number does not show any number, but indicates "Generated Automatically." Identify the option that relates to this intended behavior.
Person Number at the Enterprise Level is set to Automatic before submission.
Worker Number at the Enterprise Level is set to Manual.
Person Number at the Enterprise Level is set to Automatic after final save.
Person Number at the Enterprise Level is set to Manual.
In Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud, the Person Number generation method is configured via "Manage Enterprise HCM Information." Options include Manual, Automatic before submission, or Automatic after final save. The behavior described—showing "Generated Automatically" with no number on the Review page—indicates the number is assigned post-submission.
Option A: "Automatic before submission" generates the person number immediately upon initiating the hire process, visible before review. This doesn’t match the scenario.
Option B: "Worker Number" is distinct from Person Number and irrelevant here. Manual setting would require user input, not "Generated Automatically."
Option C: Correct. "Automatic after final save" delays person number generation until the transaction is fully submitted and saved, explaining why it’s not visible on the Review page but marked as automatic.
Option D: Manual requires the user to enter a number, contradicting the "Generated Automatically" indication.
The correct answer isC, as detailed in "Implementing Global Human Resources" under Person Number setup.
