Oracle Benefits is a complete, configurable and flexible global solution that enables organizations to successfully evolve and adapt to the unique needs of their workforce. The solution enables setup of traditional 'one-size fits all' plans to highly complex plans that selectively target different workforce segments with different benefit packages. Self-service capabilities present the user with an out of the box intuitive guided enrollment process with contextual information and embedded analytics.
Dependent and Beneficiary Designation
Enforce dependent and beneficiary designation during enrollment for those plans or options where the administrator has configured designate dependents or beneficiaries. If you uptake this new functionality, if the participant doesn't designate any dependents or beneficiaries, they get a message letting them know that they've not selected any, and that they need to. They are prevented from moving to the next option until they do so.
The behavior is the same if the enrollment is performed through the Benefits Service Center by administrators, or by participants through Self-Service Benefits.
Benefits Person Electable Choices Diagnostic Test Report
Use the new Benefits Person Electable Choice Diagnostic Test report to review a participant’s enrollment opportunities in comparison to their actual enrolment details for started, processed, backed out and voided events. It enables you to analyze and compare the information.
The report enables the development team and support to diagnose issues related to the choices that a participant could have made in a life event where a customer has an issue they can’t resolve. This in turn will help to reduce the turnaround time resolving customer reported issues during back-out of life events, while processing fresh life events and during the enrollment flow in Benefits Service Centre and Self-Service Benefits.
Prevent Accidental Back Out of Life Events
Prevent accidental back out of life events occurring, only the most recent event can be backed out at a time to avoid backing out all the life event history. If any process leads to more than one life event for a person being backed out, the application throws an error, for example, the Evaluate Life Event process runs from the Benefits Service Center, or the Back Out Life Events process from the Evaluation and Reporting work area.
Not only does the application now throw an error, but if you access the Back Out Life Events process from the Evaluation and Reporting work area, you’ll also notice that an additional, required parameter has been added to capture the reason for back out. The parameter displays irrespective of whether the process will cause more than one life event to back out or one life event to back out.
Close Life Events After Making Elections
Close life events anytime, when required, from the Benefits Service Center. When the administrator makes enrollment elections through Benefits Service Center and submits, they receive a message informing them that the life event will be closed. If they want to close the life event and submit the enrollment, they select Yes. If they don’t want to close the life event, they select No and the enrollments are just saved and not closed, as in the previous releases.
To enable them to do this, we’ve delivered a new checkbox on the Self-Service Configuration page that works in conjunction with the Close Enrollment Period Date when defined as ‘When elections are made’, at program level.
Display additional values on the Benefits Service Center and Self-Service Benefits user interfaces using page customization. The additional values you can now display are for:
- Life Event
- Program or Plan Name
- Person Name
- Person Number
- Legal Entity ID
- Legislation Code
- Country Code
You can display the life event name and the program and plan names on the Self-Service Benefits Enrollment flow on the Overview and Confirmation pages. You can display the person name, person number, legal entity identity and legislation or country code on any of the Self-Service Benefits or Benefits Service Center pages. And you can also display the legislation or country code.
Other typical ways you can make use of this functionality are adding the legal disclaimer analysis link to the Summary page in Benefits Service Center, or showing the monthly bill report link for each bill where the status isn’t open, if you’ve implemented Benefits Billing.
Displaying additional values has a variety of different business values. For example, displaying the life event in the Enrollment flow helps participants know which life event is providing enrollment opportunities, and marking the date of birth as required is useful for specific countries.
Enrollment Flow as Quick Action and Deep Link
Enter the enrollment flow more directly. Participants no longer have to navigate to the Self-Service landing page to start the enrollment. Instead, they can select the People to Cover quick action task and enter the Enrollment flow to start their enrollment.
For example, Administrators can embed the People to Cover quick action as a task within a checklist or embed the Enrollments deep link URL into an existing alert.
Use the newly delivered subject area in Benefits, Person Information Real Time, to report on notes previously entered in Benefits Service Centre. You can also query the notes entered across different participants. The administrator will have previously defined who can view the notes through “Who can see my note” in Benefits Service Centre - everyone, or just the administrator who entered them.
Compensation and Total Compensation Statement
Oracle Fusion Compensation enables your organization to plan, allocate, and communicate compensation using the most complete solution in the market. Make better business decisions using embedded analytics and a total compensation view of workers, regardless of geographic location or pay package components.
Oracle Compensation enables your organization to plan, allocate, and communicate compensation using the most complete solution in the market. Make better business decisions using embedded analytics and a total compensation view of workers, regardless of geographic location or pay package components.
Responsive Pages Access from Compensation Work Area
Open the responsive pages of salary and individual compensation transaction pages in the Compensation work area, when you have the responsive pages profile CMP_COMPENSATION_RESPONSIVE_ENABLED and HCM_RESPONSIVE_PAGES_ENABLED enabled.
Provide clearer understanding of what the component salary basis does by renaming the type Salary amount is determined by components to Salary amount is determined by incremental components. You use this type to itemize salary adjustments as components.
Grade Rate Overrides Using Location and Business Unit Based Salary Range Differentials Introduction
Override the grade rate of a salary basis using a grade rate type of salary range differential. For example, you create a differential that includes the location San Francisco Head Office and New York Regional Office. For these locations, you select the Premium grade rate. This grade rate will override the grade rate of the salary basis for people working in these locations.
Now, you can also define lower limit rules while specifying factors for the factor type of salary range differentials. For example, the salary range is $50 - $100, the differential factor is 0.8, and the lower limit is $50. When you apply the differential, the adjusted salary range becomes $40 - $80. But, lower limit won't let the salary range go below $50 and thus adjusts the salary range to $50 - $80.
Individual Compensation Plan Integrity Checker Introduction
Identify potential issues in individual compensation plans with the integrity checker. It can detect and report any payroll elements that were deleted without their mapping also getting removed from individual compensation plan options. This situation could result in orphan data in the individual compensation plan setup table and can cause issues in allocations. You can run the Purge Orphaned Payroll Element Setup Data from Individual Compensation Plans process to purge this orphaned payroll element setup and eligibility data from the setup tables.
Standard Components Salary Basis Type Introduction
Define salary using a new type of salary basis that uses simple components. You can now maintain salary as a sum or collection of individual simple components. With various types of simple components, you can enter an amount or percentage that can be set to add to or subtract from the overall salary, or to be independent. For example, you have a cost of living component that's a percentage of the base salary component, and you add the calculated cost of living amount to the overall salary.
Salary Allocation with Standard Components Introduction
Allocate salary using a simple components type salary basis. This type of salary basis can support mandatory and optional simple components. These components can be user enterable, fixed, calculated based on another component, or based on a grade ladder. For example, a cost of living amount could be calculated as a percentage of a base salary component.
Salary Population from Grade Ladder Rates: Standard Components
Automate entry of salary amounts for people whose salary bases are determined by simple components, when you define rates on a progression grade ladder. You can populate the salary from grade ladder rates during HR actions, such as Hire, Promote, and Change Assignment, when the salary basis is determined by simple components. Previously, you could do this automatic population for only salary bases with the type determined by user.
Standard Salary Components Introduction in View Compensation History
View salary allocated using a simple components type salary basis on the View Compensation History page. For example, you can see that last year, the person earned $5000 as merit allowance and $3000 as cost of living allowance. And 2 years ago, they earned a $4000 as merit allowance and a $2500 as cost of living allowance.

Compensation Replaced or Removed Features
From time to time, Oracle replaces existing features with new features, or removes existing features.
Replaced features may be put on a path of removal, the features below will let you know what update you will have to have moved to the newer feature. As a best practice, you should move to the newer feature as soon as possible for full support and to stay up with the latest updates that the product offers.
Any feature that is removed, will have an Update in which that feature is no longer available. Please make necessary plans to move off the feature by the Update indicated, as it will no longer be available.
Removal of the SalaryVO Business Object
Know that when using Groovy or AutoComplete that SalaryVO is now renamed to Deprecated Salary, this is because it will be no longer be available as of Update 21B. We recommend that you replace the Deprecated Salary with the Salary business object as soon as possible, before April 2021.

You can view the event action notifications for a worker and drill down to view the events associated with that event notification. Alternatively, you can also view all the events detected for a worker and drill down to view the event action notifications triggered by that event.
Copy Payroll Balances During Global Transfers
Carry forward assignment and relationship level balances using balance adjustments from the source to the target legal employer during the global transfer of employees. You can preconfigure the list of balances by an object group; called Process Information Group. You can trigger the balance transfer through these flows:
- Local and Global Transfer and Mass Change Legal Employer: Select the "Copy balances to the new employment record" checkbox to initiate the copy of balances automatically after the global transfer is complete.
- Transfer Balances: Use this flow when you think that the balances aren’t ready on the source, and you want to initiate the copy later.
Support for SET Instruction in HDL Transformation Formulas
Configure the HCM Data Loader Transformation Formula to add SET instructions before the METADATA instruction on the HCM Data Loader DAT files. SET instructions are optional control commands that alter the default processing of the HDL file in which they appear. For example, you can set the escape character or enable payroll events on the data that is loaded using SET instructions.
Default Process Configuration Settings for Delivered Extracts
Run the delivered payroll extracts with the best-practice process configuration settings, delivered as default values for each extract. These default settings ensure optimal performance of key high-volume payroll extracts if you have not set your own values for those process configuration parameters.
For example, several high-volume extracts like the Payroll Activity Report will now generate the XML using multiple threads because the process configuration parameter "Multithreaded XML Generation for Extracts (ORA_MULTITHREADED_XML)" is set to Y by default. Until now, you would have had to set the process configuration parameter yourselves either at the time of report submission or on the default process configuration group.
Transfer Payroll Run Costs to SLA Using Payment Date From Payroll Period Definition
Transfer costing results for a payroll run by using the payroll time periods date paid in the Accounting Date for Transfer to Ledger configuration parameter.
