Explore how to efficiently manage geography data in Oracle Fusion HCM for both Loqate and non-Loqate supported countries
In Oracle Fusion HCM, geography data accurately depicts physical locations such as countries, states/provinces, cities, postal codes, and addresses within the HCM application. Managing geography data is a crucial component of HR data management, which influences vital functions including payroll processing, benefits administration, tax reporting, and regulatory compliance.

In conclusion, effectively managing geography data within Oracle Fusion HCM, whether using Loqate-supported countries or manually entering data for non-Loqate countries, significantly enhances HR functions by ensuring accurate and compliant geographical information. The integration of licensed Loqate data for 82 countries streamlines processes like payroll, tax reporting, and benefits administration. Meanwhile, the Import Management tool simplifies the incorporation of data for countries not covered by Loqate, preventing manual errors and saving valuable HR time. Adopting these methods not only improves operational efficiency but also bolsters compliance with global regulatory standards, making it a strategic necessity for businesses operating in multiple countries.
Geography data refers to the accurate representation of physical locations within the HCM system, including countries, states/provinces, cities, postal codes, and addresses. This data plays a critical role in HR processes like payroll, benefits administration, tax reporting, and regulatory compliance.
For countries not on the Loqate list, manual entry through dropdown menus is currently unavailable. However, you can leverage the Import Management tool to import your data in bulk, eliminating manual work.
Oracle offers licensed geographic data from Loqate for 82 countries (as of the latest update). You can import this data by navigating to Setup and Maintenance > Manage Geographies, searching for the country, selecting Import Geography Data from the Actions menu, and confirming the import through the pop-up windows.
