Known Issues on Top of Patch 21980909 - R12.HR_PF.B.DELTA.9 (HRMS 12.1 RUP9) (Doc ID 2113768.1)

Key interesting enhancements are (it's a short list this time):

Payroll:
  • We have a new WebADI to add assignments to an assignment set. The new function is called "Manage Assignment Set", using which you can now create/ delete assignment sets and add new assignments to the assignment set. It would have been lovely to had there been a feature to "delete" existing assignments from the assignments sets (so that the same assignment set can be re-used easily across multiple payroll runs), but from what I have read so far, I do not believe this feature is available. I am yet to try out the WebADI though - so if any of you has tried this out, please can you include your experience in the comments below. 
  • Good news also for folks on International Payroll is that the Payroll Dashboard has now been released for you. Payroll Dashboard is available under Payroll Professional responsibility, and this function should work out-of-the-box. The Payroll Dashboard does have some useful features, so if you haven't had a look at, I would encourage you to. (A note for myself: At some point in the future, I need to blog about my experience with Payroll Dashboard). 

There are no new features in AME, Compensation Workbench, HRMS Configuration Workbench, Core HR, iRecruitment, Oracle Labor Distribution, Oracle Learning Management, Oracle Performance Management, Oracle Self Service,

The following modules have new features, which are not summarized in this blog - Advanced Benefits (one US specific feature to generate 1095-Cs), Oracle Succession Planning (Talent Matrix), Oracle Time and Labor (several new profile options).
