Preferences are used to assign the rules that have been created in OTL to the groups they apply to. Oracle Time & Labor delivers predefined default preferences. To view the predefined default preferences, expand the Default Preference hierarchy. Then you can decide if you need to create additional preferences. You cannot change or delete the default preferences. You can create new preference hierarchies as needed.
For example, there may be a circumstance where you wish to limit preferences based upon an organization, a location, or even for one individual person. By creating new hierarchies, you can define your preferences for these circumstances.
