MSS- Change Location

By /

To change the location of an employee in Oracle HCM Cloud, you can follow these steps if you have the necessary role (HR Specialist, Manager, etc.):

Steps to Change Employee Location:

  1. Log in to Oracle HCM Cloud: Make sure you have the required permissions to edit employee records.

  2. Navigate to My Workforce:

    • From the homepage, click on the My Workforce or Person Management tab.

  3. Search for the Employee:

    • Use the Search function to locate the employee whose location you want to change.
    • You can search by name, employee number, or other identifiers.

  4. Access the Employee’s Profile:

    • Click on the employee’s name to open their profile.

  5. Edit Employment Information:

    • In the employee profile, go to the Employment section or a similarly labeled section that contains details about the employee’s job and organization.
    • Look for a section labeled Location, which might be under Assignment or Job Details depending on the system setup.

  6. Change the Location:

    • Click the Edit button to change the location.
    • Select a new location from the available options (your organization’s pre-defined locations should be listed in a dropdown or search box).

  7. Update Effective Date:

    • Choose the Effective Date for when the location change should take place.
    • Ensure the date aligns with organizational policies (for instance, future-dated changes might need approval).

  8. Submit the Change:

    • After selecting the new location and confirming the effective date, click Submit or Save to finalize the change.
    • The change may need to go through an approval workflow, depending on your organization’s settings.

  9. Confirm the Update:

    • Once submitted, the system may notify you of the status, whether it’s successful or requires further approval.
    • You can monitor the process by checking the Transaction Console or Worklist (if applicable) to see if any approvals are pending.

Notes:

  • If you are a manager, you may only be able to initiate this process for your direct reports. HR specialists typically have broader access.
  • The location change could trigger other system updates, such as tax jurisdiction changes, workflow updates, or reporting structure changes.

These steps may vary depending on your version of Oracle HCM Cloud and any customizations your organization has made.
