Chapter 2Oracle Cloud: Get Started

5

2 Oracle Cloud: Get Started

Purchase and Activation of Oracle Cloud ApplicationServicesPurchase and activate Oracle Cloud Application Services from the Oracle Cloud web site, https://cloud.oracle.com.

The process involves:

• Purchasing and activating your services.

• Verifying that the services are activated, monitoring the services, and performing other administrative tasks.

Purchasing and activating any Oracle Cloud service is described in the Oracle Cloud: Geing Started with Oracle Cloudguide. Many administrative tasks are covered in the Oracle Cloud: Managing and Monitoring Oracle Cloud guide. All ofthe following references in this section point to one of these guides.

Note: Not everything in these guides is relevant to Oracle Cloud Application Services, for example detailsabout Oracle Java Cloud Service and Oracle Database Cloud Service.

Terminology and User Roles• Before you proceed, you should understand terms that are used in documentation about Oracle Cloud. Refer to

the Oracle Cloud: Geing Started with Oracle Cloud guide.

See: Oracle Cloud Terminology

• You should also be familiar with roles for users of the Oracle Cloud web site or of the actual service. Refer to theOracle Cloud: Geing Started with Oracle Cloud guide.

See: Oracle Cloud User Roles and Privileges

Service Purchase and Activation• Your buyer or an Oracle sales representative orders a cloud service and species information about the account

administrator during the ordering process. Refer to the Oracle Cloud: Geing Started with Oracle Cloud guide.

See: Buy an Oracle Cloud Subscription

• The account administrator receives an e-mail with a link to activate the service. As part of activation, theaccount administrator provides information about the administrator who performs the functions of both theservice administrator and the identity domain administrator. Refer to the Oracle Cloud: Geing Started withOracle Cloud guide.

See: Activate Your Order from Your Welcome Email

Service Verication• The administrator who was identied during the activation process:



6

◦ Veries that the service is activated. Refer to the Oracle Cloud: Geing Started with Oracle Cloud guide.

See: Verifying That Your Services Are Ready

◦ Manages and monitors the service. Refer to the Oracle Cloud: Managing and Monitoring Oracle Cloudguide.

See: My Account Administration

See: Performing Service-Specic Tasks

◦ Optionally create initial administrator and implementation users before enterprise structures setup.

• Alternatively, the administrator sets up enterprise structures and then creates service users, includingfunctional implementors.

• Functional implementors perform conguration and setup steps.

• Developers can add features to extend the application.

Security in Oracle Talent Management Cloud: OverviewTo keep Oracle HCM Cloud secure, you as the implementor dene and grant roles to your users:

• A job role represents the job that you hire a worker to perform, for example, HR Analyst or Payroll Manager.

• A data role combines a job and the data that the worker must access. A Payroll Manager, for example, needsaccess to specic data instances. You dene the data instances in a security prole.

• An abstract role describes a person's function in the enterprise that's not related to the job. Abstract rolesinclude employee, contingent worker, or manager

• An aggregate privilege combines the functional privilege for a duty with the relevant data security policy.

• A duty role represents a logical grouping of privileges. For example, an HR Specialist might have the WorkforceStructures Management duty role, which has privileges to organize workforce structures such as jobs andorganizations.

Dene Implementation UsersThe Oracle HCM Cloud service administrator creates one or more implementation users and their data roles.

Task Notes

Run Users and Roles SynchronizationProcess

Copies data from the LDAP directory to the Oracle Fusion Applications Security tables, so thatexisting roles are available for implementation users.

Create Implementation Users

Takes you to the Security Console where you can create users who will perform theimplementation tasks. The Security Console is an administrative work area where you performmost security management tasks.



7

Task Notes

Create Data Role for ImplementationUsers

Takes you to the Security Console where you can assign roles and grant access toimplementors.

At least one implementation user must have the IT Security Manager job role or privileges. That implementation userperforms security-related implementation tasks.

Dene Security Synchronization Processes and PreferencesTo initialize the Security Console, a user with the IT Security Manager job role follows the Dene SecuritySynchronization Processes and Preferences task list described in this table.

Task Description

Manage Application SecurityPreferences

Opens the Security Console, where you perform setup tasks such as seing the enterprisepassword policy and dening the default format of user names.

Import Users and Roles intoApplication Security

Runs a process that initializes and maintains the Oracle Fusion Applications Security tables.

Import User Login History

Runs a process that imports the history of user access to Oracle Fusion Applications. Thisinformation is required by the Inactive Users Report.

Dene SecurityOracle HCM Cloud is secure out of the box. To enable application users, you perform the tasks in these task lists, asneeded:

• Dene Security for Human Capital Management

• Dene Security for Compensation Management

• Dene Security for Workforce Development

You do most of these tasks during implementation, but can do them later, too.

Tip: The Oracle HCM Cloud security reference implementation has many predened job and abstract roles.

Task Description

Revoke Data Role fromImplementation Users

Implementation users need unrestricted access to large amounts of data. Afterimplementation, you must remove HCM implementation data roles from implementationusers.



8

Task Description

Caution: You should remove the Application Implementation Consultant role fromthose who no longer need it. The Application Implementation Consultant role isvery powerful.

Manage Job Roles Takes you to the Roles tab in the Security Console where you can:

• Review the role hierarchy of a job or abstract role.• Create job and abstract roles.• View the roles assigned to a user and identify the users who have a specic role.

Manage Duties Takes you to the Roles tab in the Security Console where you can:

• Review the duties of a job or abstract role.• Manage the duties of a job or abstract role that you created.• Create duty roles.

Dene Data SecurityTasks for the management of HCM data roles and security proles appear in these task lists:

• Dene Data Security for Human Capital Management

• Dene Data Security for Compensation Management

• Dene Data Security for Workforce Development

To create an HCM data role, use the Assign Security Proles to Role task. To identify the data instances for an HCMdata role, you create HCM security proles. For example, to identify a set of person records, you use the Manage PersonSecurity Prole task. A user with the IT security manager job role or privileges does these tasks.

Manage Role Provisioning RulesYou create role mappings to control the provisioning of all types of roles to application users. For example, you cancreate a role mapping to provision the Employee abstract role automatically to all employees. A user with the IT SecurityManager job role performs this task, which opens the Manage Role Mappings page.

Generate the Setup Task List for HCMTo start an implementation of Oracle HCM Cloud Service, a user with the Application Implementation Consultant role(ORA_ASM_APPLICATION_IMPLEMENTATION_CONSULTANT_JOB) must opt into the oerings.

Implement Succession ManagementIn Succession Management, you create succession plans to determine who will eventually replace personnel currentlyin key positions, and create talent pools to track and manage employee development. In this topic, you will get anoverview of how you can implement the Succession Management feature. For more information, see the Oracle TalentManagement Cloud Implementing Talent Review and Succession Management and Oracle Human Capital ManagementCloud Securing HCM guides.

Seing Up Succession ManagementYou must be an Application Implementation Consultant to set up Succession Management.

Management duty role. The HR specialist job role inherits this duty role by default.4. Identify users who you want to manage all succession plans. Create a super user job role and provision the job

role directly to these users. Enable users with this super user job role to access Oracle Transactional BusinessIntelligence (OTBI) subject areas.

5. Congure access to lists of succession plan incumbents and candidates if you want to present dierent lists ofworkers to HR specialists and line managers when they're selecting incumbents and candidates.

6. Use the Manage Succession Management Lookups task in the Setup and Maintenance work area to managethe succession management lookups.

4 Application Users

How You Dene Application Users for Oracle TalentManagement Cloud ServiceApplication users are the intended users of the Oracle Talent Management Cloud service. They inherit appropriateabstract roles, such as Employee and Line Manager. They also inherit job roles from locally dened data roles. Theseabstract and job roles enable application users to perform their tasks.

This table identies the main predened job roles for major components and options of Oracle Talent ManagementCloud.

Cloud Service or Option Predened Job Role

Talent Management

Human Resource Manager, Human Resource Specialist

Compensation Cloud

Compensation Administrator, Compensation Analyst, Compensation Manager, CompensationSpecialist

For information about the roles and privileges inherited by each of these roles, see the Oracle Human CapitalManagement Cloud Security Reference guide.

Preparing for Application UsersMany implementation tasks concern preparing your Oracle Talent Management Cloud service for application users.Decisions made during this phase determine how you manage users by default. You perform these tasks:

• Manage Application Security Preferences

◦ Denes the default format of user names for the enterprise

◦ Sets the enterprise password policy

◦ Manages the notication of user and password events, such as password expiration, to application users.

• Manage Enterprise HCM Information

Sets these options for the enterprise:

Option Description

User Account Creation

Controls whether user accounts are created automatically when a person record is createdusing the New Person task ows

User Account Role Provisioning Controls whether role provisioning and deprovisioning requests are processed by default


Chapter 4Application Users

30

Option Description

User Account Maintenance

Controls whether requests to suspend and reactivate user accounts are processed by default

Tip: Some enterprises use applications other than Oracle HCM Cloud to manage user and roleprovisioning. In this case, you set the User and Role Provisioning options to prevent automaticcreation and management of user accounts.

Seing Up Default Role ProvisioningRole provisioning rules, also known as role mappings, determine which data and abstract roles users can have and howthey acquire them. During implementation, you create role mappings to provision standard roles, such as Employee andLine Manager, automatically to application users. You may also create some HCM data roles and create appropriate rolemappings for them. Perform the Manage Role Provisioning Rules task to create role mappings.

Creating Application UsersDuring implementation, you can create test application users:

• Using the Create User task

• On the Security Console, if you have the IT Security Manager job role or privileges

Once the implementation is complete, application users can be created automatically:

• When a person record is created using a New Person task ow, such as Hire an Employee or Add a ContingentWorker. By default, human resource specialists and line managers can perform the New Person tasks. Whetheruser accounts are created for new person records is controlled by the User Account Creation enterpriseoption.

• When person records are loaded in bulk using HCM Data Loader. For these person records, you set theGenerateUserAccount aribute to Y to request a user account.

When user accounts are created, roles are provisioned to them automatically, as specied by current role mappings.

For more information about application users, roles, and role mappings, see the Securing Oracle HCM Cloud guide. Formore information about loading person records in bulk using HCM Data Loader, see the Integrating with Oracle HCMCloud guide.

6 Data Upload

How You Upload Data for Oracle Talent ManagementCloud ServiceYou can upload business-object data in bulk to Oracle Talent Management Cloud using a variety of tools. This topicintroduces the main ways of uploading data. For more information about any of these data-loading tools, see theIntegrating with Oracle HCM Cloud guide.

HCM Data LoaderUse HCM Data Loader to load data in bulk from any source to Oracle Talent Management Cloud. HCM Data Loaderloads:

• Complex, hierarchical data

• Large volumes of data, such as complete system extracts

• Object history

You can use HCM Data Loader for both data migration and ongoing data maintenance. Major benets of HCM DataLoader include support for:

• Most HCM business objects

• Incremental or partial data loading

• Four types of keys to identify records uniquely

• Congured descriptive exelds and extensible exelds, translation data, tree hierarchies, person images, anddocument-record aachments

HCM Data Loader provides:

• A comprehensive user interface for initiating data upload, monitoring progress, and reviewing errors

• Support for loading data from delimited data les (.dat les)

• A template le for each supported business-object hierarchy, which you can use as the basis for your own datales

• A user interface for reviewing the structure and aributes of every supported business-object hierarchy

• A web service that you can use to automate data upload

You access HCM Data Loader tasks in the Data Exchange work area. You must have the Human Capital ManagementIntegration Specialist job role or privileges.

HCM Spreadsheet Data LoaderUse HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader to import data to the HCM Data Loader stage tables from spreadsheets. HCMSpreadsheet Data Loader supports most of the business objects that HCM Data Loader supports. Spreadsheets oermany advantages. For example:

• Spreadsheets are easy to use.


Chapter 6Data Upload

34

• You can create custom spreadsheet templates and generate spreadsheets tailored to your business case. Forexample, you can omit aributes, change aribute order, change aribute labels, and add help text.

• You can save data periodically from a spreadsheet to the stage tables. Therefore, you can load large volumes ofrecords without being prevented by limits on spreadsheet size.

• Errors are reported in the spreadsheet and you can correct them there.

• You can mix your use of spreadsheets with use of HCM Data Loader .dat les. For example, you can load datafrom a spreadsheet but maintain it using .dat les.

You can use HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader as described here only if the HCM Data Loader Scope parameter is set toFull. This parameter has been set to Full by default for all new customers since Release 10 and can't be changed.

All users must set up desktop integration for Microsoft Excel to use any spreadsheet loader, including HCM SpreadsheetData Loader.

You access HCM Spreadsheet Data Loader tasks in the Data Exchange work area. You must have the Human CapitalManagement Application Administrator job role or privileges.

Object-Specic Spreadsheet LoadersOracle Talent Management Cloud provides many spreadsheet loaders for specic object types. For example:

• On the Manage Jobs page, you can select the Create in Spreadsheet option.

• On the Manage Goal Library page, you can click Upload to generate a spreadsheet to upload goals.

• On the Plans subtab in the Plan Conguration work area, you can click Prepare in Workbook to generate aspreadsheet to upload benet plans.

Object-specic spreadsheet loaders are available for many global HR, talent, compensation, and benets objects. Inmost cases, you:

• Create the spreadsheet on the page where you manage the object.

• Load the objects directly to the application tables.

• Correct any errors in the spreadsheet and load the corrected objects again.

In many cases, you can both create and update the object in a spreadsheet.

Single-object spreadsheets are most useful for users, such as human resource specialists and benets specialists, whoare creating objects of a specic type in bulk. For example, they may be loading such objects from third-party suppliers.You're less likely to use these types of spreadsheet loaders for ongoing integrations. Users with access to tasks such asManage Jobs or Manage Goal Library can also load objects from relevant spreadsheets.
