As Oracle continues to improve usability and functionality in Fusion Cloud HCM, one key upgrade is the  Enhanced User Interface for the U.S. Employee Tax Withholding Card . This modernized view provides better navigation, easier data entry, and expanded functionality—especially for managing local tax jurisdictions. If your organization implemented Fusion HCM  before Release 18C , you’ll need to  manually enable and migrate employees to this enhanced experience. Here’s how to do it safely and efficiently. 🆕 What’s New with the Enhanced Tax Withholding Card? Streamlined  user experience Support for updated  local income tax withholding  logic Better compatibility with  automated jurisdiction detection Prepares the system for future enhancements in U.S. payroll processing ⚙️ How to Enable the Enhanced Interface First,  test these steps in a non-production environment . Once validated, replicate the steps in your live system. Step 1: Update Payroll P...

In Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM,  payroll and HR data are tightly interconnected —and most of the time, that’s a good thing. When you make changes to a person’s work location, tax status, or assignment, the system usually triggers an  automatic sync  to update the relevant  tax cards and calculation data . But what happens when you’ve disabled automatic syncing—or need more control over what gets updated? That’s where the  Sync Calculation Cards process  comes in. 🧾 What is the Sync Calculation Cards Process? The  Sync Calculation Cards  feature is a  manual process  that ensures your employees’  tax cards (specifically the Employee Withholding Certificate)  are accurately updated after making changes to key data points—such as: 📍  Work location updates 🏢  Payroll statutory unit (PSU) changes 🧾  Tax reporting unit (TRU) realignments ⚙️  Payroll definition modifications 🔁 This process  only updates the l...

Managing retroactive pay adjustments can be complex—especially when they result in  employee overpayments . Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM now provides a smarter, more controlled approach with its new feature:  Retroactive Overpayment and Recovery for Earnings Elements . This capability allows organizations to  track and manage overpayments without impacting the employee’s net pay immediately , delivering a more employee-friendly and administratively efficient solution. ⚙️ What’s New? Previously, when Retropay results led to overpayments, the  full recovery amount would be automatically deducted , often reducing an employee’s net pay unexpectedly. With this enhancement: The overpayment is  offset ,  not immediately deducted , and A  repayment schedule  can be configured, ensuring the employee pays it back gradually. ❗ Note: This feature is currently supported  only for new elements  with an  Earnings classification , not for existing eleme...
