Why I picked it
Departments, Enterprise HCM Information, Grade Ladders, Jobs and Locations open in Redwood by default from 26D, and the classic and responsive pages are no longer available by default.
Where it helps
An HR systems team checks that the people who maintain jobs and locations can still do everything they need on the Redwood pages.
What to do now
- Check each environment. In Manage Administrator Profile Values, look up ORA_PER_DEPARTMENTS_REDWOOD_ENABLED, ORA_PER_ENTERPRISE_HCM_INFORMATION_REDWOOD_ENABLED, ORA_PER_GRADE_LADDERS_REDWOOD_ENABLED, ORA_PER_JOBS_REDWOOD_ENABLED and ORA_PER_LOCATIONS_REDWOOD_ENABLED. Oracle says the settings are evaluated separately in each environment.
- Test the changes your team makes most, such as creating a job, updating a location and changing a department.
- Check access. Oracle says roles that could use the old pages get the Redwood ones too.
- Recheck anything you've personalised on the old pages. Oracle's note doesn't say how it carries over.
- Need longer? Set a profile option to No to keep the old page, and plan the move rather than relying on it.
Oracle 26D note: Redwood Enabled by Default for Workforce Structures Pages ↗
Watch out: You can still set a profile option to No to keep the old pages. A No you set while testing carries through the 26D update, so check each environment.
