Configuring Oracle Celebrate in Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM

 Hello Curious Minds!!

In today's discussion let us look at Oracle Celebrate. what it is and how we can configure it in simple ways in Oracle HCM Fusion Cloud Application.

Oracle Celebrate fosters a culture of appreciation by allowing employees to acknowledge and celebrate each other’s accomplishments.

• Develop recognition initiatives aligned with your organization’s core values.
• Allow team members to engage in these initiatives by awarding points, sharing public congratulatory messages, and interacting with them directly through their dashboards.

Let us go through the configuration steps

Step 1: assigning the right roles and privileges

Administrators will require Workforce Recognition and Award Program Administrator (ORA_CEL_WORKFORCE_RECOGNITION_AND_AWARD_PROGRAM_ADMINISTRATOR_JOB) 
role to access Global settings and Programs features

Employee will require EMPLOYEE (ORA_PER_EMPLOYEE_ABSTRACT) role and following set of privileges


Once the appropriate roles and privileges are given, now the administrator can proceed with configuration

Step2: Configure Global Settings

You can customize reward points, core values, and images for your programs. The settings and rules you establish here will be applied across all recognition & award programs

Navigate to My Client Groups→ show more→ celebrate→ Configure Global Settings



You can set if your program can redeem cash and what is the currency type. Also, you can set the rewards points given to employees to recognize their colleagues When Points to cash is chosen, we need to select payroll element. Here we need to have created supplemental payroll element and set it as nonrecurring then only when the element entries are created it will have an end date
Go to payroll --> elements and create a new element under your LDG and also create element eligibility to make it available in celebrate


We need to provide company core values  by clicking on add core values so that it can be chosen in the program creation also there are some delivered program images, and we can also upload our custom ones by clicking on add program images. The one's that are required we need to check the check box and save

Step3: Configure Programs
A recognition or award program allows employees to acknowledge and celebrate their coworkers' efforts and accomplishments.
Navigate to my client groups→ show more→ celebrate→ Configure Programs→ Add programs


Under add program we can either choose to create Recognition or Award
Let us first take a look at creating Recognition
You can give a name and start and end date and also description


As you can see in the image above, we have list of core values which we configured in global settings. from here we can choose the one which is relevant to the program same goes to program images.
We can also set the award to be available in quick recognition.
we can set owners for the recognition program and also set eligibility criteria and mark it as required. 
and save. Only core values and Program Image is mandatory.

Now Lets see Award Program
We have two categories Spot and work anniversary. we can choose the one we need 

If we choose reward points then we can have fixed or enterable points.
If we choose cash then payroll element will be mandatory 

As mentioned earlier we need to have a supplemental element configure to the LDG in use.
rest of the features same as recognition program.

Note: sometimes the payroll element or any of the field values are not available then do have your browser cache cleared, logout and login or maybe use private window. this will help in resolving the issues most of the time.

Now you can go and award recognition to employees and view the dashboard as manager. Recognition and Awards are available in Touchpoints page as well.

We have one more option as Run the batch Process
My Client Groups→ Show more…→ Celebrate→ Run batch processes

You can choose generate award elements entries to create element entries for employees who have been awarded cash award.
you will be required to choose the payroll element and click on the run. you can also have a trial run before having the actual run.
 For work Anniversary first we generate the awards using 'Generate Event driven awards' next we publish the awards using 'Publish Event driven awards' and finally we notify users using 'Notify Service Awards' process.

Hope this was helpful. If you have any queries then do drop in a comment.

Thank you!!
