Subject: Best Practice Guidance for Managing Multiple Date Attributes

Summary:

Hello everyone,

In our project, we are using Additional Assignment Information based on an Extensible Flexfield (EFF) in Oracle HCM, and we would like guidance on configuration best practices.

Specifically, we need to manage a significant number of attributes (primarily Date fields), and we would appreciate your recommendations on the most scalable and maintainable design approach:

• Is it preferable to include multiple attributes (including multiple Date fields) within the same context to keep the configuration consolidated?
• Or is it considered best practice to distribute attributes across multiple contexts (e.g., by functional area or process) to improve maintainability, usability, and reporting?
