    Q1. What is Oracle Fusion HCM?

    Ans: -Oracle Fusion HCM serves as a foundational module within


    Oracle's suite of cloud-based HCM solutions.
    It is designed to optimize HR processes, enhance employee experiences,
    and drive organizational efficiency.

    Q2. What Is Enterprise?


    Ans: -An enterprise is a collection of legal entities under centralized
    control and management.

    Q3. Define Legal Entities?


    Ans: -Legal entities owns all of the assets of the enterprise individually.
    For example :- ABC Pvt. Ltd. will be assigned as a Legal Entity where
    there will be many HR functions that will run under Oracle HCM fusion,
    such as :- Payroll, Compliance and Benefits etc..
    Here it may have different Business Units that will align with respect to
    its own legal requirements according to its respective region and
    requirements.

    Q4. Define Enterprise Structure using example?

    Ans: - For example :- Let XYZ Ltd. is a multinational company and the
    legal entity that is responsible for global compliance, tax obligations,
    and consolidated financial reporting.
    Let there are 3 business units that is working under this legal entity .i.e.

    1. XYZ Ltd. US
    2. XYZ Ltd. Europe
    3. XYZ Ltd. Middle East

    Each business unit operates in different regions and handles region-


    specific HR processes, payroll, and compliance requirements.

    Each of the business units have separate departments such as Within


    XYZ Ltd. US and XYZ Ltd. Europe, there might be departments such as:

    1. Sales Department
    2. Finance Department
    3. HR Department

    These departments handle internal operations and manage employees


    within the business unit.

    While within XYZ Ltd. Middle East, there might be divisions such as:

    1. Middle East Sales Division


    2. Middle East R&D Division

    Divisions could represent different functional areas or product lines


    within the business unit.

    Each department or division might have its own cost center for
    budgeting and financial tracking purposes. For example:

    3. Sales Department could have a cost center for sales


    activities.
    4. R&D Division could have a cost center for research and
    development expenses.
    Hence In Oracle HCM, setting up this enterprise structure would involve
    configuring these elements in the system so that HR processes can be
    managed efficiently. For instance:

    XYZ Ltd. would be set up as the top-level legal entity.

    XYZ Ltd. US would be configured as a business unit under XYZ Ltd., with
    its own departments and cost centers.

    XYZ Ltd. Europe and XYZ Ltd. Middle East would be similarly configured
    to handle their respective regional operations.

    This setup allows the organization to handle different compliance


    requirements, payroll processing, and reporting needs specific to each
    region and department while maintaining a cohesive global structure.

    Q5. What are legislative data groups?


    Ans: - Legislative data groups are a means of partitioning payroll and
    related data.
    At least one legislative data group is required for each country where
    the enterprise operates.

    Q6. What are Reference Data Sets? Give Example?


    Ans: - Reference data sets are logical groups of reference data that
    various transactional entities can use, depending on the business
    context. For Example:- Country code

    Ans: - A business unit is a unit of an enterprise that performs one or
    many business functions that can be rolled up in a management
    hierarchy. A business unit can process transactions on behalf of many
    legal entities.

    Q8. Define Department using an example?


    Ans: - A department is an organization with one or more operational
    objectives or responsibilities that exist independently of its manager.
    For example, although the manager may change, the objectives do not
    change. Departments have one or more workers assigned to them.
    A manager of a department is typically responsible for:
     Controlling costs within their budget.
     Tracking assets used by their department.
     Managing employees, their assignments, and compensation.

    submission method automatically creates and displays person
    numbers when creating person records. This method is the
    default method for person number generation.

    from the values specified in the associated position.
    Q17.Use an Example to explain the relationship between job and
    positions?

    Ans: - A job represents a general role or category of work within an


    organization. It encompasses the broad responsibilities and duties
    associated with a type of work but does not include specific details like
    location or department.

    A position is a specific instance of a job within the organization. It


    includes detailed attributes such as the department, location, and
    reporting lines. Multiple positions can be filled under the same job
    category.

    For Example:- Software Developer is a job under ABC Pvt. Ltd. Where
    there are several positions that comes un der this job such as:-

    -Position 1: Software Developer I

    - Location: Delhi

    - Department: Development Team

    - Reporting Line: Reports to Senior Software Developer

    - Salary Range: Rs60,000 -Rs75,000

    - Location: Mumbai

    - Department: Development Team

    - Reporting Line: Reports to Development Team Lead


    - Salary Range: Rs40,000 – Rs50,000

    - Location: Remote (Home Office)

    - Department: Development Team

    - Reporting Line: Reports to Senior Development Manager

    - Salary Range: Rs15,000 – Rs25,000

    The job of Software Developer provides a broad definition of the role


    and responsibilities. Positions within this job represent specific
    instances that include detailed attributes like location, department, and
    reporting lines. By defining multiple positions under a single job,
    organizations can effectively manage different levels of roles and
    responsibilities while maintaining consistency in job functions.

    Q18.Define Assignment Numbers with example?


    Ans: - Assignments are identified by assignment numbers, which you
    can allocate either manually or automatically.
    The application creates numbers for automatic allocation by prefixing
    the person number with the character E (for employee), C (for
    contingent worker), or N (for non-worker), P (for Pending Worker). A
    person's second and subsequent assignments of the same type have a
    suffix number. For example:
    • E45678
    • E45678-2
    • E45678-3
    Q19.Explain Jobs?

    tasks.
    • Jobs are typically used where flexibility and organizational
    change are key features.

    Q20.Why should we use Positions?

    and reporting relationships than Individuals.
    1. Positions are one of the parameters that can be useful for better
    understanding of vacancy job description.
