Introduction
Many a times there is a specific need when we want to have a identifier in the Output File (we are referring to outbound integration) based on which certain logic is applied (could be used while deriving other file fields or even used by consuming system). This kind of requirement can be achieved by making use of derived extract attributes.
In this example, we would classify an HCM Extract where in we would classify records as a NewHire. This categorization would be done basis a Extract Attribute named IsPersonNewHire which will hold the value of ‘Y’ if the record is new hire else ‘N’.
If a person is hired within 7 days of the Extract Run Date then the record is considered to be a NewHire.
For this example we will create an Extract which will comprise of the following fields:
Person Number
Enterprise Hire Date
LOSInDays
IsPersonNewHire
Running the Extract
We will run the extract and check the results.
