Licensing Model for Oracle Fusion HCM Base Cloud Service
The Oracle Fusion HCM Base Cloud Service is licensed based on the Hosted Employee metric. This means that all employees tracked or managed using the HCM system must be licensed, regardless of their level of interaction with the system.
The hosted employee metric includes full-time, part-time, contract, and outsourced employees, ensuring that everyone in the workforce who interacts with the HCM system is covered.
Hosted Employee Metric: What It Includes
- Full-Time Employees: All employees managed using the Oracle HCM system must be licensed.
- Part-Time and Temporary Employees: If their information is tracked within the HCM system, part-time and temporary workers must also be licensed.
- Contract Workers: The licensing count must include contractors and consultants who have access to or are tracked by the Oracle HCM system.
- Outsourced Employees: If a business outsources HR functions, the employees of the outsourced service provider who interact with the system must also be licensed.
Example of Licensing
Suppose a company has:
- 500 full-time employees
- 200 part-time employees
- 100 contractors
- 50 outsourced staff
These individuals must be counted towards the Hosted Employee metric, resulting in 850 licensed Hosted Employees. Even if only a portion of these individuals actively use the HCM system, they must all be licensed if their data is managed or tracked by Oracle HCM. This approach ensures that the organization complies with Oracle’s licensing requirements and avoids potential penalties.
