Why I picked it
Moving a large group to a new legal employer is high-stakes. This puts selection, review and error handling in one guided process.
Where it helps
After a restructure, HR moves a whole team to a new legal employer, reviews the group first, then reruns only the workers that failed.
Watch out: Confirm the population and approval path before you submit.
From Oracle's note
When a legal-employer change affects many workers, coordinating each record separately can slow HR down. The Redwood process lets teams select and review a worker population, validate the changes and track exceptions in one process, while retaining the organisation’s business rules and approvals.
- Search by name, email, business title or person number, then refine by legal employer, business unit, department, location or line manager.
- Review process status and worker-level errors, then rerun failed workers with the applicable process data carried forward.
- Retain the existing business rules, validations and approvals.
Requires the site-level profile options ORA_HCM_VBCS_PWA_ENABLED=Y and ORA_PER_EMPL_MLEC_REDWOOD_ENABLED=Yes. Confirm the affected population and approval path before submission.
