 Business Group Creation

The next Step is to Create our Business Group .

The Important thing we must not forgot while creating our business group and all our
organizations is “Date Tracking’. The date must be checked while creating all the
organizations . The dates which we give for our orgnizations must be after the date which
our business group is created and the dates are those from which we want the
organizations to be existed in our business group.The Date Tracking Plays a vital role in
HRMS.

For that first we have to create a Location

Navigation :

HRMS : Work Structures → Location

The next step is to attach all our flex fields which we have defined before to our business
group .

Organization Classification is Important in HRMS.

Navigation : Work Structure → Organization→Description

Click on ‘New’

Create the Business Group.

Enable the Business Group and click on ‘Others’ and give the Business Group
Information .
Give a Short name for the Busines group.

Select the Employee number , Applicant Number Generation, Contingent Worker

Generation Fields as either as ‘Automatic’ or ‘Manual’ based on your business group
requirement.
Select and attach your grade,people group,job,costing,position,competence flexfields to
your business groups here.
Select your Legislation Coed and currency .
Then click on ‘Yes’ for saving the Business Group Information.

Attach ‘ HR Organization ‘ so that we can attaché employees in that organization.

Now Switch the Responsibility to “ System Administrator’

Navigation :

Profile → System
Attach our business group to HR Security Profile .
Under ‘HR Cross Business Group ‘ Profile Select ‘yes ‘ .
Add ‘HR with Payroll’ for ‘HR User Type’

Switch back to our HRMS Responsibility

The next step is to create organizations in our business group.

It will be better if we Select the Organization type while creating them .
But Attaching HR Organization for every Organization is must .

Create other Locations in your Business group.

Navigation : Work Structures →Location

Now create all Divisions and Departments in your Business Group.

Navigation : Work Structure → Organization → Description

The next step is to create a hierarchy for our organization .We must not forget date
tracking.
If we want to create a new hierarchy for our organization we will give an end date for our
old hierarchy. The version name will be changed here.
Navigation :

Work Structures → Organization → Hierarchy

Give a name to the Organization Hierarchy and create the hierarchy. Select ‘Primary’
check box if it is the primary hierarchy of the organization.

Select Version number as ‘1’ and give the starting date for the hierarchy.
Query in the ‘Organization’ window with the Business Group Name and add all the
divisions an departments as per the hierarchy in your organization in the ‘Subordinates’
window.
Job Creation :

Create the Jobs in your Business Group based in the Structure you have defined for the
jobs.

Navigation :

Work Structures →Job →Description

Job is a role in our organization .Here create jobs which we want in our organization .
The job group will be generated automatically.But if we want a new job group we can
create it ourself.Don’t forget to check the date .After creating the jobs with the job code
and job name save them.
The next step is to create positions in our organization.

There r many differences between Jobs and Positions.

Jobs
1) Jobs are Flexible roles
2) Jobs are independent of organization
3) Jobs are independent of positions
4) A job may have multiple positions
Positions
1) Positions are rigid roles
2) Positions are dependent on organization
3) Positions are dependent on Jobs.
4) A position will have specific job

Navigation for creating a position :

Work Structures → Position → Description

After creating the positions , create Position Hierarchy.

Navigation :

Work Structures → Position → Hierarchy

Give a name to your hierarchy. If the Hierarchy is the primary hierarchy in your
organization , check the ‘Primary’ check box .Save it and version number populated for it
automatically. If you are creating first hierarchy give the ‘Date From’ . If we want to
create another new hierarchy after some days , give the ‘End Date ‘ for the previous
hierarchy which is running. Save it.

Query with Higher position name and attach the positions in the order as it is in your
organization.
The next step is to assign grades to the jobs in our organization. Grades can be assigned
to jobs or positions. But Oracle prefers to assign grades to jobs.

Here we will define all the grades which are available in our organization.

The next step is to assign the grades to our jobs.

update the status of the application after each interview. You can schedule
these interviews and update the applicant assignment status using the

to the applicant assignment. You cannot enter a status when:
• There are future changes to the assignment
• The interview date is the date when the active application status began
• You are updating an existing interview record.

Follow the same process till we give the ‘Offer ‘ to the applicants to hire
them and the applicant may accept or reject it.
If the applicant accept the offer . the next step is to hire the applicant as
an employee. The main point to remember here is that there must be one
day difference between the day the applicant accepts the offer from the
company and hiring the applicant as employee.
