QUESTION NO: 12
In your client company, 500 employees are eligible for Telephone Allowance (Recurring Element).
This element needs to be attached to all employees hired after 01-Jan-2010. Because of the
volume of the data, manual Element Entries cannot be created for all the employees. How would
this be achieved?
A. Define an Assignment Set and enter criterion to select Employees hired after 01-Jan-2010. In
the batch Element Entry, use the create Batch Lines window to create identical lines for all
assignments Set.
B. Use the mass Assignment update feature to update the assignment data of all the employees.
C. Attach the element as a Standard link with No eligibility criteria defined.
D. Attach the Element as a Standard Link with Eligibility Criteria defined as Hire Date greater than

Answer: A
Explanation:
(The Assignment Set can be used to select assignment lines pertaining to the specific criteria and
populated in the Batch Element Entry)
Note: Entering Batch Lines
A batch line is one element entry for an assignment.
Use the Create Batch Lines window to create identical lines for all assignments identified by an
assignment set. This is a quick way to create many lines for an element. If the input values need to
vary between assignments, you can leave these blank and add them later using the Batch Lines
window.
In the Batch Lines window, you can enter new lines for individual assignments, and you can view
and edit lines created automatically for an assignment set. You can speed up entry of new lines by
entering default input values

D. It runs the payroll run twice: once before the event and once after the event.
E. The employee is added to an Assignment Set for that payroll period.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Proration is expected to have two different results using the date as the demarcation
Note:
BRM does the following to calculate the prorated fee for each product that is valid during the cycle:
1. Calculates the unit intervals. See "Calculating the Unit Interval".
2.Calculates the scales for the part of the period to be prorated that falls into each unit interval.
3.Sums up the scales for all the unit intervals to get the scale for the entire period to be prorated.
4.Calculates the prorated amount by multiplying the scale for the entire period by the cycle fee
amount.

A. PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F
B. PER_ALL_ASSIGNMENTS_F
C. PER_PERSON_TYPE_USAGES_F
D. PER_PERIODS_OF_SERVICE
E. PER PAY PROPOSALS

person_types for an employee. Developers usually gets misguided to which person_type_id we
need to consider.The answer is we should always need to use the table
per_person_type_usages_f to retrieve the correct person_id. Though the person_type_id in the
two tables appear to be same but they are different and that can perty much mislead us.

Company XYZ requires Leave of Absence to be approved by any member of the HR team. Identify
the action that can be used to address this requirement.
A. One Dynamic Approval Group with Voting method as parallel
B. One Dynamic Approval Group with Voting method as First Responder Wins
C. Multiple Dynamic Approval Group with Voting method as Serial
D. One Dynamic Approval Group with Voting method as Consensus
E. Multiple Dynamic Approval Group with Voting method as parallel
Answer: B
Explanation:
An approver group has a voting regime assigned to it. A voting regime determines the order in
which a group’s members are notified, and how the group makes approval decisions. The
following four regimes are available:
* First-Responder-Wins Voting
In first-responder-wins voting, the members are notified in parallel. The response of the first
member to respond to the notification requesting approval becomes the group’s approval decision.
AME logs the responses of the remaining group members, but otherwise ignores their responses.
Members’ order numbers are ignored in this instance.
* Serial Voting
In serial voting, the members are notified one after the other, in an order consistent with the
members’ order numbers. AME breaks ties arbitrarily. All members must approve for the group to
approve.
* Consensus Voting
In consensus voting, the members are notified in parallel. All members must approve for the group
to approve. Members’ order numbers are ignored in this instance.
* Order-Number Voting
In order-number voting, the members are notified in the order of their order numbers. Members
having the same order numbers are notified in parallel. All members must approve for the group to
approve.

In Compensation Workbench (CWB), which functionality is available under the "Switch Manager"
function?
A. Change an employee's Manager
B. Request change of Compensation Manager
C. Alter the Approval Hierarchy
D. Act on behalf of another Manager
Answer: D
Explanation: Managers can enter allocations and assignment changes for any employee who
reports directly or indirectly to them, according to the selected hierarchy. If you make the Switch
Manager feature available to them, they can view and edit the budgetsheets and worksheets of
any manager within their security view (defined by the security profile attached to their
responsibility). Switch Manager enables you to act as another manager or as a super-user and do
everything that the manager can do except view their notifications. You can search for and select
another manager to switch to even if you don’t know the exact name, employee number or email
address of the manager you want to switch to.

How can the Assignment button be removed from the Enter and Maintain form?
A. The assignment functions need to be removed from the applicable user menu.
B. Navigate to the task flow form. Query for the applicable task flow and navigate to the applicable
node name for the assignment form in the node block. Remove this node and save the changes.
C. In the Special Information Types (SIT) form, deselect the Enabled check box for Others.
D. In the Human Resource Responsibility, navigate to Security > CustomForm and create a new
form with the specific restrictions.
E. Set the global security profile to use Assignment Based Hierarchy and set Maximum Hierarchy
Levels to 0.
Answer: B
Explanation: Task flows are used to configure the navigation path between different windows in
Oracle HRMS.
1. Every Form ii defined as a Taskflow Node (e.g. Person Screen, Assignment Screen, Contacts
Screen, Phones Screen) (Navigation : Security > Task Flow Node).
2. Then you define the Task Flow definition, in which you mention to which all forms can be
navigated from a form (e.g. To which all forms (contracts, phones, assignment) you can navigate
from the Person screen). Since each screen is defined as task flow node, the task flow definition
will have the source form as one task flow node and each form to which it can navigate as
destination node (Navigation : Security > Task flow Definition). You can mark few forms as buttons
so that they appear as buttons in the form and other comes in Others list.
3. This taskflow Definition is passed as a parameter to the Form Function (here the Form function
defined for Combined Person and Assignment Form).
So in this scenario the following applies:
1. Need not define the Task flow nodes as they are predefined.
2. Need to define new task flow definition removing the unrequired forms from navigation path.
3. Pass the new Task flow definition to your form function.

A. The CAGR structure has not been associated with the Business Group in the Business Group
Information window, which opens from the Organization window.
B. The employee is not eligible for any CAGR structure based on the eligibility profile attached to
the collective agreement.
C. The person is a contingent worker and this field doesn't hold any value for contingent workers.
D. The CAGR structure has not been linked to the collective agreement attached to the
assignment in the Agreement Grades window (Navigation: Work Structures > Collective
Agreement > Define Collective Agreement Grades).
E. The CAGR structure has not been linked to the grade attached to the assignment in the Grades
Definition window.

QUESTION NO: 36
The Recruitment letter type is linked with a SQL* Plus script and applicant status as 1st interview.
The applicant status is changed from Active Application to 1st interview. Identify the valid
outcome.
A. It creates a letter request automatically, with the status of Pending.
B. It creates a letter request automatically, with the status of Completed.
C. The SQL* Plus script concurrent program associated with the recruitment letter type is fired
automatically.
D. It creates a letter request automatically, with the status as completed only if the number of
applicants with a status of 1st interview is more than 10.
E. The SQL* Plus script concurrent program associated with the recruitment letter type is
scheduled to be run at the end of the day.
Answer: A
Explanation: You need to link your SQL*Plus script with a letter and one or more statuses. In
Oracle Human Resources, you can link one or more applicant assignment statuses with each
recruitment letter. A request for the letter is then created automatically when an applicant is given an associated assignment status.
When an applicant is given one of these statuses, a pending request for this letter type is created
automatically. If a pending letter request already exists, the applicant is added to the list of people to receive the letter when you submit the request.

costing processes to be given a status of Error there must be a serious breakdown at system or
process level.

You are the Director of XYZ Company. Identify three standard functionalities available to you
through Compensation Workbench Budgeting.
A. You may choose not to pass down budgets to the managers below you. Instead you can hold
the entire amount.
B. You may choose to pass down the budgets only to those managers reporting directly to you.
C. You cannot do budgeting using Compensation Workbench.
D. You may choose to pass down budgets to all the managers below you.
Answer: A,B,D
Explanation:
Budgeting in Compensation Workbench
Compensation Workbench provides two general styles of budgeting:
* Automatic Budgeting: use this type of budget if you predetermine budgets prior to giving
managers access.
For example, you enter a budget of 7.5% for all managers in the west, and 10%
for all managers in the east. Auto-issuing budgets gives the compensation professional control
over the amount a manager can allocate to reporting employees and creates a uniform
compensation distribution across the enterprise. You can set up variable rate profiles to vary the
flat percentage or amount based on a variety of eligibility criteria such as location.
* Roll-Down Budgeting: use this type of budget if you predetermine the initial budget only, and
line managers complete the budgeting task. As a compensation administrator, you publish the
initial budget with the highest-level manager, or with multiple lower managers. Managers roll the
budgets down the hierarchy by distributing the budget. Managers decide the level to which they
want the budget to trickle down by selecting the budgeting method on the Budget Task.
