Employee Photo in SSHR

Employee Photo in Oracle Employee Self Service

1. Requirement

Per requirement the HR user should have access to upload employee’s photograph while creating new employee records/changing the existing photograph of an employee by using Core HR forms. After uploading the photograph of an employee, the same must be available to view by the employee by using his/her Employee Self Service login and the same is needed to be shown in the employee directory.
 
Note: Employee Directory is the option available in Self Service HR where anyone in the organization can search and view the basic information about any employee in the Organization.

 2. Proposed Solution (Seeded Functionality)

Navigation: HRMS Manager - Person - Enter and Maintain - Photo

HR user would create employee records on joining in Person -> Enter and Maintain window in Core HR. Any HR user or the HR User who is dedicated to enter employee information including photograph should have access to upload the same using Core HR form. It must be then available to view for respective employee by using his/her Employee Self Service Login in addition to other information like, Job, Organization, E-Mail, Phone, etc.

‘Photo’ Button in Person -> Enter and Maintain window has an option to upload employee’s photograph which is saved somewhere in the system by using browse navigation option. This is a seeded functionality provided by Oracle to store employee’s photograph. The same would be then available for employees to view it in their respective Employee Self Service Login. Also the photograph of an employee is available to view by all employees across the Organization by using Employee Directory form available in Employee Self Service login.

 3. Prerequisites

  • Employee and user creation for the employee
  • The image/photograph size is to be less than 4 MP (Refer Note 1915631.1)
  • The image/photograph to be in one among the following format (Refer Note 1915631.1)
    • BMP (Bitmap)
    • GIF
    • JPEG

4. Upload Employee Photo in Oracle Core HR

Navigation: HRMS Manager - Person - Enter and Maintain - Query the existing employee/create a new employee - Click on 'Picture' button

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
Once the employee record is saved and it has got created a record in per_all_people_f, then click on ‘Picture’ button on the bottom of the window. It will then redirect to a web page where we will have option to browse and save the image/photo of the respective employee.





















The uploaded photo would have saved in PER_IMAGES table. Please find below the uploaded image view from back-end.


                                                                                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                 
5. Run 'Refresh Employee Directory' Program
