Introduction, Scope and Assumptions

Purpose

This document is the authoritative production reference for all Oracle-delivered and implementation-specific scheduled processes (Enterprise Scheduler Service jobs, recurring flows, and batch programs) that must be configured, sequenced, and monitored in an Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications 26B production environment spanning HCM, ERP Financials, and SCM. It is structured for direct use as a production scheduling calendar and operations runbook.

Scope and Conventions

  • Production status values: Mandatory (required for correct system operation or statutory compliance), Recommended (Oracle best practice for stable operations), Conditional (mandatory only when the named feature/module is enabled), Optional (discretionary).
  • Processes marked [LY] are specific to the Libya payroll localization. Libya is not an Oracle-delivered localization: statutory logic is implemented via custom elements, fast formulas, balances, HCM Extracts, and BI Publisher templates on the unsupported-localization (International HR and Payroll) pattern, and every [LY] job is implementation-owned.
  • Exact Oracle Fusion process names are used for delivered jobs. Where a process is custom, the row states 'custom' explicitly.
  • Frequencies are Oracle-recommended production baselines; tune to transaction volumes. Intraday jobs should be staggered to avoid ESS queue contention.
  • US-specific year-end processes (e.g., 1099, W-2 archives) are excluded as not applicable to the Libya-based deployment.

Key 26B Release Considerations

  • 26B introduces Fusion Agentic Applications across the suite (Payables Agent, Expenses Agent, Ledger Agent, Payroll Processing and Inquiry Agents, SCM agents). Agent-driven automation changes interface volumes on existing import jobs (notably Import Payables Invoices and expense processing) but does not remove the underlying scheduled processes.
  • GL close hardening: new opt-in primary-ledger option 'Prevent General Ledger Period From Closing When Open Subledger Periods Exist' - enable it and pair with the Subledger Period Close Exceptions Report gate.
  • Payroll: continued Redwood page rollout (Earnings and Deductions, Calculation Cards, Costing Setup, Personal Payment Methods) and retroactive overpayment recovery for time card elements - regression-test retro and costing flows after uptake.
  • Search: enhanced index creation and reindexing via ESS jobs (Oracle Search / OSCS); Redwood search features depend on completed index ingest jobs.
  • Procurement: new scheduled process to create purchasing documents from large contracts, replacing timeout-prone online creation.
  • Quarterly-update discipline: because Libya statutory logic is custom, execute the payroll parallel-test pack (TE.120 subset) in the pre-production pod on every quarterly update, before 26B (and later) reaches production.

1. HCM Scheduled Processes

Ordering principle: identity/security jobs and data loads first, hierarchy and search refresh next, absence evaluation before payroll, payroll cycle strictly sequenced as in 1.3.

1.1 Core HR / Global Human Resources

Process NameRecommended FrequencyDependencies / PrerequisitesProd. Status26B Notes / Remarks
Refresh Manager HierarchyDaily (off-peak)Daily HDL/HSDL worker loads completeMandatoryNo behavioral change in 26B. Denormalizes the supervisor hierarchy (PER_MANAGER_HRCHY_DN) consumed by approvals, OTBI, and data security. Must run after any mass assignment change.
Update Person Search KeywordsDaily incremental; full run after mass loadsWorker data loads completeMandatory26B Redwood person search increasingly backed by Oracle Search (OSCS); where Redwood search is enabled, verify OSCS index/ingest ESS jobs are also current.
Synchronize Person RecordsDailyRun before TCA-dependent consumers (Expenses, Procurement requesters, AR contacts)MandatoryMaintains HCM person-to-TCA party synchronization used by ERP/SCM pillars.
Maintain Party and Location Current Record InformationDailySynchronize Person RecordsMandatoryKeeps current-record denormalization for party/location data.
Send Pending LDAP RequestsEvery 15-30 minutesNew hire / termination transactions committedMandatoryProcesses pending user account create/suspend requests; drives user provisioning SLA.
Retrieve Latest LDAP ChangesDaily (off-peak)NoneRecommendedReconciles identity store with HCM; run after bulk security or user changes.
Autoprovision Roles for All UsersWeekly, and after role-mapping changesUpdated role provisioning rulesRecommendedHeavy process - schedule off-peak; do not run concurrently with LDAP jobs.
Import User and Role Application Security DataDaily (pre-business hours)NoneMandatoryPrerequisite for Security Console visibility and security reports.
Import User Login HistoryDailyNoneMandatory (audit)Feeds the Inactive Users Report; required for access-review evidence.
Inactive Users ReportMonthlyImport User Login HistoryRecommended (audit)Attach output to periodic access-review sign-off.

1.2 Absence Management

Process NameRecommended FrequencyDependencies / PrerequisitesProd. Status26B Notes / Remarks
Evaluate AbsencesDailyAbsence plan/type changes; HDL absence loads completeMandatoryRe-processes absences affected by retroactive assignment, schedule, or plan changes.

Quarter-end adds translation/reporting-currency validation and statutory quarter reporting; year-end additionally executes the absence plan-year carryover run [LY], the Libya annual tax reconciliation [LY], asset year-end reviews, and opening of the first period of the new fiscal year.
