You can enter work choices that can affect the capacity of workers and applicants to be deployed in your enterprise. Work Choices include willingness to travel, willingness to relocate, and preferred working hours and work schedule. You can enter work choices for a job or position, and compare these with the personal work choices entered for people.

To enter schedule information for a person, you can:

• Set up extensive availability information such as shifts, schedules, and calendar events using integrated features from HRMS and Common Application Components (CAC).

  See: Setting Up Availability

• Set up holiday calendars, shifts, and work plans in OTL.

  See: Time Management Structures

Alternatively, you can enter basic schedule information in various areas of Oracle HRMS, such as here in the Job or Position window.

The decision for which method to set up is based on knowledge of which applications use which information.

You enter this information in the Work Choices window, accessed from the Job or Position window.
