By providing manager functions in SSHR, you can deliver intelligence and
information to managers, HR Professionals, ex ecutives. These users ca n retrieve and
query information simply and quickly.
• Improved accuracy of data
By enabling users to enter and maintain their own information, data input is more
accurate and up-to-date. This also reduces repetitive data entry tasks for HR
administrators.
• Streamlined business processes
By allowing managers, HR Professionals, contingent workers, and employees to
work in a paperless environment, you can streamline business processes, reduce
administration costs, and improve service. Users can make their own decisions
about benefits opti ons and work preferences, for example, and view information
online including payslips and tax forms.
• Integration with Oracle Approvals Management (OAM)
Oracle Approvals Management (OAM) enables you to define routing r ule s for
your tr ansactions. By using OAM with SSHR, you ensure that your self-service
transactions are received and approved or rejected by the c orrect user.
Scope of SSHR
SSHR functions are available for all major functional areas in Oracle HRMS: Workforce
Sourcing and Deplo yment, Compensation, Benefits, and Payroll Management, and
Enterprise and Workforce Manag ement. Within these function al a reas, some functions
are available in SSHR only, some are available in the Forms Interface only, and some are
available in both SSHR and the Forms Interface.
For information on the self-service functions availab le for each functional
area, see: Se lf-Service Modules, page 1- 5 .
What is SSHR?
The following sections answer common questions on SSHR and give an overview of
the functionality.
What does self-ser vice mean?
Self-service means that the originator of a task is also the person responsible for that
task. Using a standard web browser, the user accesses HR data and performs a specific
task, for example, registering a change of address. By transferring the responsibility
for the task to the originator of the task, data accuracy is increased and administration
costs are reduced.
How do self-service applications di ffer from traditional HR systems?
The key elements that distin guish self-service applica tions from other systems are:
• easy-to-use user interfaces
• easy access to functions via web browsers
• complex processes reduced to simple steps
