In this article, I will explain how to migrate or interface Employees / People records in Oracle

HRMS application.

This article uses the GB (United Kingdom) verion of the API. The name of this API ishr_employee_api.create_gb_employee.

There is a bit of uncertainty whether fusion will use Oracle HRMS or Peoplesoft HRMS &

Payroll.

Yet, most of the readers request me to write about Oracle HRMS.

First lets begin with questions and answers....

Question : Where is people data stored in Oracle HRMS?

Answer : It is stored in table named per_all_people_f

Question: But there is a table named per_people_f too?

Answer : WRONG. Per_people_f is a view on top of per_all_people_f. This view filters the list

of records from per_all_people_f.

This filtration happens in the where clause of view, based on security profile of the responsibility

being used by user.

Question : What then is per_people_x?

Answer : This is a view on top of per_people_f, and it displays only those date tracked records

that are effective as of sysdate.

Lets say you wish to create a person record of following data

Last name : Passi

First name : Anil

Title : MR.

NI Number : PX374383D

Date of birth 12-jan-1982

Person type : Employee

Employee number 90909090

Please note the following:-

1. This example demonstrates creation of Employee named Anil Passi with Employee Number

90909090.

In your case, you will be looping through the Legacy data and calling the below Oracle HRMS

API to create Employee.

2. You may need to map following codes of Legacy system with values in Oracle HRMS

Nationality

Ethinicity

SexTitle

,p_first_name => 'Anil'

,p_known_as => ''

,p_marital_status => ''

,p_middle_names => ''

,p_ni_number => 'PX374383D',p_previous_last_name => ''

,p_title => 'MR.'

,p_original_date_of_hire => SYSDATE

,p_person_id => x_person_id

,p_assignment_id => x_assignment_id

,p_per_object_version_number => x_per_object_version_number

,p_asg_object_version_number => x_asg_object_version_number

,p_per_effective_start_date => x_per_effective_start_date

,p_per_effective_end_date => x_per_effective_end_date

,p_full_name => x_full_name,p_per_comment_id => x_per_comment_id

,p_assignment_sequence => x_assignment_sequence

,p_assignment_number => x_assignment_number

,p_name_combination_warning => x_name_combination_warning

,p_assign_payroll_warning => x_assign_payroll_warning

,p_orig_hire_warning => x_orig_hire_warning

);

COMMIT ;

END;

Now, lets check the results, by running the below SQL

SELECT person_id

,employee_number

,first_name

,last_name

,full_name

,date_of_birth

FROM per_all_people_f

WHERE creation_date > SYSDATE - 1;

Now, lets have a look at this record from the Oracle HRMS People Entry Screen
