C_THR81 Employee Central Core Practice Question
An administrator is configuring the Employee Central Foundation Object 'Location' for a company with offices in multiple countries. The company requires that when a new location is created, it must be associated with a specific legal entity and a time zone. The administrator also wants to ensure that locations can be filtered by country in reports. Which configuration steps are necessary to meet these requirements?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is overlooking the need to enable the Country field for filtering; many administrators assume that adding the field is sufficient, but it must also be configured as a filterable field in the object definition.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Create a Location object with a lookup to Legal Entity and a field for Time Zone, and enable the Country field for filtering.
The Location object must be associated with a Legal Entity and include a Time Zone field to meet the business requirements. Additionally, the Country field must be enabled for filtering to allow reporting by country. Configuring these elements ensures that locations are properly linked to legal entities, time zones are captured, and reports can be filtered by country.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Create a Location object with a lookup to Business Unit and a field for Time Zone, and enable the Country field for filtering.
Why it's wrong here
Business Unit is not the correct association here; the requirement specifies a legal entity. While Business Unit can be used for organizational reporting, it does not fulfill the legal entity association. The other elements, such as Time Zone and Country filtering, are correct, but the wrong lookup makes this option invalid for the scenario.
- ✓
Create a Location object with a lookup to Legal Entity and a field for Time Zone, and enable the Country field for filtering.
Why this is correct
This is correct because the Location object must have associations to Legal Entity and Time Zone to meet the business requirements. Legal Entity is typically a lookup field, and Time Zone can be a standard or custom field. The Country field is often part of the Location object and can be used for filtering in reports. Enabling these fields ensures proper data capture and reporting capabilities.
- ✗
Create a Location object with a lookup to Legal Entity and a field for Currency, and enable the Country field for filtering.
Why it's wrong here
Currency is not required in the scenario; the requirement is for a Time Zone, not Currency. While Currency might be useful for other purposes, it does not meet the stated need. The Legal Entity lookup and Country filtering are correct, but the missing Time Zone field means this option fails to satisfy the full requirement.
- ✗
Create a Location object with a lookup to Legal Entity and a field for Time Zone, but do not enable the Country field for filtering.
Why it's wrong here
This option includes the correct Legal Entity and Time Zone fields, but it omits enabling the Country field for filtering. The requirement explicitly states that locations must be filterable by country in reports. Without enabling the Country field for filtering, the configuration would not meet the business need, making this option incorrect.
