We can set up GMFZT logging for HCM Extracts using the "Manage Payroll Process Configuration" task to help Oracle diagnose issues if an support request is raised. This involves adding a "LoggingCategoryDetailed" parameter with a default value of "GMFZT" on the DefaultGroup tab. Running the extract will then produce a log file with diagnostic information that can be downloaded from the Scheduled Processes area by searching for the task "Archive Payroll Information and Generate Report". The logging parameter should be removed afterwards to avoid potential performance impacts.
