Introduction

There is a common requirement, but not a global requirement, from customers to allow employees to
self-disclose specific legislative data:

1. Veteran status details in the United States, and


2. Sexual orientation and unique taxpayer reference in the United Kingdom.

This information is stored in the person legislative developer descriptive flexfield (DDF). The DDF is
added to the About Me > Personal Information > Edit > Biographical Information tab, but hidden
out of the box. The DDF and an associated header for the applicable legislation can be displayed by
using page composer personalization.
However, there a limitation that only the person legislative information for the primary assignment will
be displayed. So, if a person has multiple person legislative records, only one record will be displayed
and it will be the legislation of the primary assignment. The limitation is resolved in the upcoming
release 13 through bugs 25537124 and 25993181. Any page composer personalization completed in
release 12 will work in release13 without any necessary changes.

Oracle-Provided Page Composer Personalization File


When the flexfield rendered property is set to 'true', all segments for all countries will be displayed for
the legislation of the primary assignment. Based on a review completed by the Oracle Product
Management team this is not the desired result. For example, the UK Sexual Orientation and Unique
Taxpayer Reference fields should be displayed, but not the NINO Verified, Verified Date and other UK
DDF segments.
So, if you do set the rendered property to 'true' for the DDF, you may want to set the rendered property
to 'false' for all individual segments that should not be displayed.
In order to simplify this process for customers, Oracle has created a page composer personalization
file that sets the rendered property to 'false' for all the DDF segments EXCEPT for the following
segments:

Country Segment

United Kingdom (GB) SEXUAL_ORIENTATION - PER_INFORMATION9 - Sexual


Orientation

United Kingdom (GB) UNQ_TAXPAYER_REF – PER_INFORMATION10 - Unique


Taxpayer Reference
United States (US) VETERAN_SELF_IDENTIFICATION - Veteran Self-Identification
Status
United States (US) VETS4212_DISABLED - Disabled Veteran
United States (US) VETS4212_OTHER_PROTECTED - Other Protected Veteran
United States (US) VETS4212_SERVICE_MEDAL - Armed Forces Service Medal
Veteran
United States (US) VETS4212_RECENTLY_SEPERATED - Recently Separated

Veteran

Discharge Date

personalization file.
