BIP – Query to extract absence reasons from Oracle HCM

Sometime for data migration, it is required to get a dump of all the absence reasons configured in Fusion HCM in order to validate the data being loaded.

Below query can be used to extract the setup data for absence reasons:

SELECT aarft.name absence_reason_name
      ,to_char(aarf.effective_start_date,'YYYY/MM/DD') reason_start_date
      ,to_char(aarf.effective_end_date,'YYYY/MM/DD') reason_end_date

BIP – Extract environment url dynamically

For many BIP reports, it is required to publish the environment url. One can easily hardcode it in SQL query, however, when P2T or T2T happens, the same url gets copied to target instance which is incorrect. The better way of doing it is to use below piece of code in custom SQL to extract environment url dynamically:

SELECT 'https://'||EXTERNAL_VIRTUAL_HOST INSTANCE_NAME
  FROM FUSION.ASK_DEPLOYED_DOMAINS
 WHERE DEPLOYED_DOMAIN_NAME = 'FADomain'

  FROM DUAL
 UNION
SELECT 'DELETE|ExternalIdentifier|'

Configuration – Value set to get Grade Steps based on Worker Grade

Assignment DFF supports a number of parameters which can be used to get dynamic values based on Worker assignment.

List of supported parameters for a DFF can be found using below link:

Configuration – How to get list of supported parameters for a DFF?

In this example, we will create a value set to display list of Grade steps based on Worker’s assigned grade. Create a Table validated value set using below:

AND pgsf.GRADE_ID=pgf.GRADE_ID
     AND trunc(sysdate) between trunc(pgsf.effective_start_date) and trunc(pgsf.effective_end_date)
     AND trunc(sysdate) between trunc(pgf.effective_start_date) and trunc(pgf.effective_end_date)

Value Set – Table Value set to get list of employees

While extending the DFF attributes for additional functionality, one of the common requirements is to get the list of workers in the system.

For this purpose a table based value set can be defined and attached to the DFF attribute.

FROM Clauseper_all_people_f papf, per_person_names_f ppnf
Value Attributes Table Alias 
*Value Column Namepapf.person_number
Value Column TypeVARCHAR2
Value Column Length30
Description Column Name ppnf.full_name

Description Column Length 
ID Column Namepapf.person_number
ID Column TypeVARCHAR2
ID Column Length30
Enabled Flag Column Name 
Start Date Column Name 
End Date Column Name 
WHERE Clausetrunc(SYSDATE) between papf.effective_start_date AND papf.effective_end_date
AND trunc(SYSDATE) between ppnf.effective_start_date AND ppnf.effective_end_date
and ppnf.name_type = ‘GLOBAL’
and ppnf.person_id=papf.person_id
and papf.person_id IN (select distinct person_id from per_periods_of_Service ppos where NVL(ppos.actual_termination_date, trunc(sysdate)) >= trunc(sysdate))
ORDER BY Clause 

The above value set will show a list of only active employees. If you want to include inactive employees as well, please modify the where clause as below:

trunc(SYSDATE) between papf.effective_start_date AND papf.effective_end_date
AND trunc(SYSDATE) between ppnf.effective_start_date AND ppnf.effective_end_date
and ppnf.name_type = 'GLOBAL'
and ppnf.person_id=papf.person_id
and papf.person_id IN (select distinct person_id from per_periods_of_Service ppos)

Configuration – How to get list of supported parameters for a DFF?

There is a common requirement to default the value of DFF attributes on a UI page. For example, we want to default a defined attribute of ‘PER_PERSONS_DFF’ DFF based on person_id. For this we will need to pass the parameter as :{parameter.parameter_name} in table validated value set. To know the list of all parameters supported for ‘PER_PERSONS_DFF’, we can utilize either of below mentioned methods:

  1. From UI:

Navigate to Setup and Maintenance -> Search -> Manage Descriptive Flexfields-> PER_PERSONS_DFF -> Search

Click on edit icon and search for Derivation value field under ‘Context Segment’:

You don’t see any derivation value here which means ‘PER_PERSONS_DFF’ doesn’t support any parameters.

You can check the same for any other DFF and check the list of parameters. Below is a screen shot from ‘PER_POSITIONS_DFF’ dff which shows the supported parameter list.

2. From Backend:

Run the below SQL from reports and analytics and verify the results:

select * from FND_DF_PARAMETERS
where DESCRIPTIVE_FLEXFIELD_CODE = ‘PER_POSITIONS_DFF’

Configuration – How to disable Position Incumbent Validation?

Sometimes while loading the worker assignments or assigning an employee to a new position, you get “The Selected Position Has No Open headcount. Select A Different Position To Continue” error, one resolution to this is to disable the Position Incumbent Validation at enterprise level.

Follow the below steps to disable the position validation:

  1. Navigate to Setup and Maintenance -> Search -> Manage Enterprise HCM Information:

2. Search for Position Incumbent Validation on Enterprise screen. If not found, then follow the steps 3 – 8, else move directly to step 9.

3. If Position Incumbent Validation is not available on enterprise screen, search for ‘Manage Extensible Flexfields’ and search for ‘PER_ORGANIZATION_INFORMATION_EFF’:

4. Click on edit icon:

5. Under Category, expand Category and choose Enterprise and scroll down:

6. Click on Pages under ‘Enterprise Details’:

7. Click on add icon under ‘Enterprise Details: Associated Context Details’ and select & add ‘Position Incumbent Validation’ context:

8. A new context will be added:

Click on Save and Close and Deploy the flexfield.

9. On successful deployment of flexfield, go back to ‘Manage Enterprise HCM Information’ task and search for ‘Position Incumbent Validation’:

10. Click on Edit button in Correction mode and check the checkbox and save the record:
