I am working with a number of customers who only have ERP from Oracle and a skinny HR record to support this in HCM for things like expenses. Many of these customers want to be able to link a level of HR data to supplement what they have in ERP but this takes a lot of custom effort.
This idea would see the introduction of a Skinny HCM pipeline within ERP analytics to support this. This would need person and assignment information plus any other commonly used areas when implementing a skinny HCM solution.
This would be especially useful when looking to build FDI out as the enterprise analytics platform for an organisation as it would be far easier to link the financials, HR and other operational information that uses a common employee identifier.
