Calendar Events in Oracle Fusion HCM

In Oracle Fusion HCM, the “Calendar Events” feature allows users to manage and track events and activities within the application. These events can be related to various HR processes, such as time-off requests, work schedules, meetings, trainings, and other important dates.

Calendar Events are typically managed through a calendar-based user interface, providing an easy and visual way for users to view, create, modify, and manage their events. Here are some key points about Calendar Events in Oracle Fusion HCM:

1. Event Types: Oracle Fusion HCM supports various types of calendar events, such as Time-Off Events, Work Schedule Events, Training Events, and more. Each event type may have specific attributes and behaviors tailored to its purpose.

2. Employee Self-Service: Employees can use the self-service functionality to create and manage their own calendar events. For example, they can request time off, view their work schedule, or sign up for training sessions directly through the application.

3. Manager Actions: Managers often have the ability to approve or reject calendar events related to their team members. For instance, they can approve or deny time-off requests submitted by employees under their supervision.

4. Integration with Other HCM Processes: Calendar Events are often linked with other HCM processes to ensure data consistency and automation. For example, when an employee submits a time-off request, it may impact their absence balance and payroll calculations.

5. Notifications: The system can send email notifications to employees and managers regarding upcoming events, approval statuses, and other relevant updates.

6. Public and Private Events: Depending on the event type and permissions, some events may be visible to the entire organization, while others may be kept private between the concerned parties.
