Does CultureMonkey integrate with Oracle HCM?

Yes. CultureMonkey connects to Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM. The connector is set up for your account during onboarding, then syncs like every other HR system, so every survey goes to the right people and every report cuts by legal employer, business unit, department and manager.

Here is the shape of it once it is running:

  • SetupBuilt and switched on for your account during onboarding. You provide API credentials for an integration user in Oracle HCM, through a secure channel.
  • What syncsEmployees with their business units, departments, locations, jobs and line managers, plus fields you map as custom attributes, such as grade.
  • CadenceA full sync when you connect, then a refresh twice a week, or daily if daily sync is enabled for your account.
  • DirectionOne way, read only. CultureMonkey never writes back to Oracle HCM.
  • Employee matchingOn a stable employee ID, such as the person number, so people already in CultureMonkey are updated rather than duplicated.
  • LeaversMarked inactive, never deleted, when Oracle HCM sends them as inactive. Their history and past responses stay intact.

Key capabilities

Built around how Oracle HCM describes your organization

Legal employers, business units, departments, grades and line managers already live in Oracle HCM. The sync carries them into every survey, so results read the way your HR team already thinks about the group.

Every legal employer in one survey

Oracle HCM customers often employ people through several legal employers across countries. One survey can cover them all: the group sees the consolidated score, and each employer's HR sees only its own people. See multi-entity employee surveys.

  • During onboarding our team sets up each legal employer as a business group and maps your people to it.
  • Scope each employer's HR to its business group, with comment access set separately from scores.
  • Employees answer in their own language, so one survey works across countries. See global employee surveys.

One person, several assignments: the primary one counts

In Oracle HCM a person can hold more than one work relationship, and more than one assignment inside each. Only one work relationship is primary, and its primary assignment is the person's overall primary assignment. The connector is set up to read that one, so each person is surveyed once, in the right place.

  • Department, location, job and line manager come from the primary assignment.
  • A second assignment in another department does not create a second employee or a second invitation.
  • Matching on person number, which stays the same however many work relationships someone has, keeps one record per person.

Global transfers between legal employers

When someone moves permanently to another legal employer, Oracle HCM ends their work relationship and opens a new one under the new employer. In CultureMonkey they stay the same person.

  • Person number does not change in a global transfer, so the next sync updates the employee rather than creating a new one.
  • Their business group, department and manager follow the new primary assignment from then on.
  • Answers they gave before the move keep the employer and team they had at the time, so each employer's past results stay accurate.

Departments read within their business unit

Oracle HCM shares departments, locations, jobs and grades out to business units through reference data sets, so two business units can each have a department with the same name. Results read correctly when department is always seen inside its business unit.

  • Map business unit and department together, so Finance in one business unit is never merged with Finance in another.
  • Grade maps to a custom attribute, so any report can compare levels within a business unit.
  • Reporting lines come from the line manager on the primary assignment and feed the org hierarchy and manager dashboards.

How Oracle HCM's structure maps into CultureMonkey

Oracle HCM describes each worker through a legal employer and an assignment that carries their job, grade, manager and location. Each becomes an attribute every survey report can be cut by.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does the Oracle HCM integration work?

The connector is set up for your account during onboarding. From then on CultureMonkey reads employee data from Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM through an integration user and keeps your employee list in step with it: a full sync first, then a refresh twice a week, or daily if daily sync is enabled for your account. The sync only reads; it never writes back.

Can each legal employer's HR see only its own results?

Yes. During onboarding our team sets up each legal employer as a business group and maps your people to it. Group HR sees every employer and the consolidated score; each employer's HR is scoped to its own people.

Which Oracle HCM fields can come across?

Person number, business unit, department, location, job and the line manager on the primary assignment map to their CultureMonkey counterparts. Grade and any other field can map to custom attributes, which then work as report filters and groupings.

Some of our companies use SAP SuccessFactors or Workday. Can they join the same survey?

Yes. Each company's employees can come from its own HR system, the API, SFTP or a CSV. Our team sets up each company as a business group during onboarding, so everyone lands in one survey and each company's HR sees only its own results.

What happens to people with more than one assignment?

The connector reads each person's primary assignment, which Oracle HCM always defines, so their department, location and manager come from it and they receive one invitation per survey. Other assignments do not create additional employees.

We run Oracle E-Business Suite or PeopleSoft, not Fusion Cloud HCM. Can we connect?

Yes, through a different route. This connector is for Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM. E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft can send a scheduled employee file through SFTP employee sync, or push changes through the Employee API.

Does the integration sync payroll or compensation data?

No. It syncs the employee and org data CultureMonkey needs to send surveys and cut results: identity, legal employer, business unit, department, location, job, grade, manager and the custom fields you map.

Can we set up the Oracle HCM connection ourselves?

No. Our team builds and switches on the connector for your account during onboarding. Your Oracle HCM administrator creates the integration user, shares the credentials through a secure channel, and then reviews the mapping and the first sync in your own account.

Will connecting Oracle HCM delete or overwrite our existing employees?

It will not delete anyone. Existing employees are matched on a stable employee ID and updated, new ones are created, and leavers Oracle HCM sends as inactive are marked inactive rather than removed, so history and past responses are preserved.
