Getting Started HCP

Human Capital Planning (HCP) Application

HCP has a set of forms for data entry where planners enter data for:

  • Existing employees and To Be Hired Employees
  • Employees in pooled positions such as Graduate Student Instructor (GSI), Adjunct Faculty, etc.
  • Dept ID Compensation Adjustments

Interfaces: Web and Smart View

There are two distinct interfaces that planners can use to enter data into HCP:

  1. Web – Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System, Fusion Edition
  2. Excel – Smart View Oracle Hyperion Planning, Fusion Edition

This course introduces planners to the web interface. Upon completion of this course, with pre-requisite knowledge of the various forms and rules for data entry, the Smart View for Planning course introduces the Excel Smart View interface.
