The Personal Information function enables self-service users to enter and update their own personal records. This function is integrated within Oracle Workflow. By using Oracle Workflow and the Personalization Framework, you can design a process to control which personal details a user can change or display. You can also design an approval process for any changes made by employees, workers, or managers. You use the Personal Information function to update basic details such as Marital Status, Title, First and Last Name, Addresses, and Emergency Contacts.

There are several personalization options available to you for the Personal Information functions. Function-specific personalizations are listed in the relevant functional documentation, however, you should note the following general points:
You can include Extra Information Types (EITs) and Special Information Types (SITs) in your Personal Information process flows.
You can personalize the Personal Information Overview page to display the Dependents and Beneficiaries region.
You can make the Personal Information pages read-only by hiding the Update buttons.
You can add selected fields to the Personal Information pages. To display information on the available fields, click the "About this Page" link at the bottom of the Personal Information pages. This page displays subtabs that display information on the page including the view objects and associated entity objects and attributes.
Note: If the "About this Page" link is not displayed, check the value of the FND: Diagnostics profile option. Set this profile to Yes at the required level.
For more information on the "About this Page" feature, see: Discovering Page, Technology Stack and Session Information, in the Oracle Application Framework Documentation Resource, My Oracle Support note 391554.1.
If you personalize a field in one of the Personal Information modules, for example, Phone Numbers, and want to replicate this change throughout the Personal Information function, you also need to make the change in the appropriate pages, for example, the Personal Information: Overview page.
When users click Update in the Basic Details, Main Address, Secondary Address or Tertiary Address regions in the Personal Information page, the options to correct current details or enter new information appear in the same page or a separate page, depending on the page configuration.
There are restrictions on future-dated transactions. If you submit an address change with an effective date of 6 months in the future, for example, you cannot enter another address change before the initial transaction is effective. When you display the Personal Information Overview page, you can view any future transactions by clicking the View Future Changes button. This button only appears if a future change exists.
Note: This does not apply to the Phone Number module which does not require an effective date.
