One Employee Record.
Every Country. Every Legal Entity. One System.
Most large organisations carry multiple HR systems — each managing a fragment of the workforce, each with its own definitions of headcount, job grades, and org structure. The result is an HR function that spends more time reconciling data than acting on it. Symhas implements Oracle Fusion Core HR as the single source of truth for your global workforce — one employee record, one org structure, one position hierarchy, consistent absence policies — across every country and legal entity you operate in.

What We Deliver
Core Capabilities.
Production-Deployed in Oracle Fusion.
Every capability is configured inside Oracle Fusion HCM — not a third-party layer on top. Fixed price. Fixed timeline. Your HR team independent at go-live.
Global HR & Single Employee RecordPerson model · Employment · Job · Org structure · Multi-country
Oracle Fusion HCM Person and Employment model configured for your org structure — a single employee record covering all assignments, positions, legal entities, and countries, with consistent definitions of headcount, FTE, and job grade across the organisation.
Person and employment model design — single record per person across all assignments
Legal employer and payroll statutory unit configuration for every country
Job and position hierarchy design — grade, grade step, and grade ladder configuration

Single source of truth for headcount — no more reconciling between HR systems
Position Management & Org DesignBudgeted positions · Headcount control · Org charts · Reorganisation
Oracle Fusion Position Management controls headcount through the org structure — not through manual approval chains. Budgeted positions enforce hiring limits, position synchronisation keeps compensation aligned, and org charts update in real time.
Position structure design — position-based vs job-based headcount model
Budgeted headcount control — hiring blocked when position budget is exceeded
Position synchronisation — grade and job from position to assignment automatically
Reorganisation tooling — mass org structure updates with approval workflow
Real-time org chart — OTBI-connected, refreshes on every transaction
Headcount controlled through the org structure — not through Excel and email approval
Absence Management & Leave PoliciesAccrual plans · Qualification · Entitlement · Legislative compliance
Oracle Fusion Absence Management configured for every absence type, accrual plan, and leave policy across your countries — with employee self-service for leave requests and manager approval workflows integrated into the payroll calculation.
Absence types and plans configured per country and employment category

Employee self-service leave requests and balance enquiries

Leave managed in one system — accurate balances, correct payroll deductions, compliant across all jurisdictions

Manufacturing · Core HR Fortune 100 Manufacturer.
45,000 Employees. 12 Countries. One Oracle HR System.
A Fortune 100 manufacturer with 45,000 employees across 12 countries was running 7 separate HR systems — PeopleSoft for North America, SAP for Europe, and a mix of local HRIS for APAC. Headcount figures differed between systems. Grade definitions were inconsistent. Absence balances were reconciled manually each month. Symhas implemented Oracle Fusion Core HR as the single global HR system — one employee record, one org structure, one position hierarchy across all 12 countries and 4 legal entities. The 16-week deployment included data migration from all 7 legacy systems. Discuss Your Programme

Why Symhas
Oracle HCM Expertise From
45+ Enterprise Deployments.
Multi-Country HR at Enterprise Scale Core HR across 10+ countries involves country-specific legislative requirements, different absence models, and conflicting grade structures. Symhas has deployed Oracle Fusion Core HR in 45+ enterprise programmes across 30+ countries — we know the configuration nuances that cause post-go-live issues.
Data Migration from Every Legacy System PeopleSoft, SAP HCM, Workday, ADP, and local HRIS all structure HR data differently. Symhas brings pre-built migration templates for every major legacy HCM system — data loaded, validated, and reconciled before go-live, not after.
Single Employee Record from Day One The most common Core HR failure is allowing duplicate person records to proliferate from go-live. Symhas implements person matching and duplicate prevention as a go-live requirement — not a data quality programme you run six months later.
Position Control That Actually Controls Position management only controls headcount if positions are kept current. Symhas designs the position maintenance process alongside the technical configuration — so the org structure reflects reality six months after go-live, not just on go-live day.
Legislative Compliance Built In Country-specific HR requirements — termination rules, statutory leave, working time regulations — are not add-ons in a Symhas engagement. Legislative compliance for every country is a go-live acceptance criterion.
HR Team Independent at Go-Live By go-live your HR team is trained on all Core HR processes — new hires, transfers, org changes, and absence management. Symhas certifies the team and steps back. No dependency on us for day-to-day HR operations.
