Creating Jobs and Positions in Oracle Fusion

 Oracle Fusion HCM (Human Capital Management) offers powerful tools for managing organizational structures, including jobs and positions. These are fundamental components that help define the roles, responsibilities, and workforce needs of an organization. Understanding how to create and manage jobs and positions in Oracle Fusion is key to efficient HR operations.

Difference Between Jobs and Positions

Before diving into creation, it’s important to understand the distinction:

Job: A generic role, such as “Software Engineer” or “Sales Manager.” Jobs define the type of work and are shared across departments.

Position: A specific instance of a job within a department or location. For example, “Software Engineer in Hyderabad Office, IT Department.”

Oracle Fusion supports both single position and multiple position models depending on your organizational needs.
