Where it helps
Before a restructure, HR asks for jobs with no one in them and jobs missing a family or grade, then tidies them up.
My take
MY PRACTITIONER VIEW
More valuable for keeping the job structure clean than for creating jobs. The decisions about your job architecture stay with you.
Things you can ask
Examples based on Oracle's notes. What works depends on your setup.
What it won't do
- Lists of more than 25 rows are cut to 25.
- Data waiting for approval isn't included.
- Your Visual Builder Studio business rules and localisation rules aren't applied.
- Copies of the older 26B Jobs Assistant keep their original abilities only.
Good first agent?
Maybe. Its review abilities are a quick win; deleting jobs needs care.
Risk level: Lower risk. It works on your job structure, not on people, and shows changes before they're made.
Before you switch it on
- Can it change records, and who approves those changes?
- What happens when it's wrong?
Setup at a glance
Open Setup at a glance for the setup steps. Select the agent's type label to see what that type means.
Test it after each update
Oracle updates arrive in test on the first Friday of the update month and in production on the third. Run these in between.
- Ask for unused jobs and check a few against positions and assignments.
- Edit a test job and check the change and its history.
- Ask for a list you know has more than 25 rows and make sure users know it's cut short.
Watch out
The older Jobs Assistant supervisor template is no longer supported for new builds.
How it's changed
26A job creation; 26B viewing and editing; 26C a new workflow agent with deletion and gap checks.
