Oracle Absence Management is a configurable and flexible global solution that enables organizations to manage absences of their workforce. The framework provides ability to define both complex and diverse absence plans. It integrates with the Oracle Cloud Global Payroll and Time and Labor products and provides dedicated work areas for the roles of Administrator and Employees. Simplified user interface is provided for employees’ absence data entry.
Security Uptake for Recent Search Option
Restrict managers and administrators from viewing the Time and Absences pages of employees they don’t have access to when using the recent search option. The recent search option displays a list of employees recently searched by managers and administrators sharing a common device. If a manager or administrator tries to select an employee they don’t have access to, the application will show an error message telling them the same and asking them to select another employee.
Accrual Process Recognition of Reduced Balance Limits
Allow an accrual balance to exceed a ceiling balance limit when the ceiling balance limit is reduced. When an employee’s status changes from full-time to part-time, their accrual plan ceiling often reduces to a lower balance limit. The calculate accruals process will recognize the status and limit change, and generate accruals only when the balance falls below the new reduced balance limit.
