Extra Information Types

Oracle defines EIT in following words. Extra Information Types (EITs) is a descriptive flexfield that facilitates us to add an unlimited number of information types to
six available important entities in Oracle HRMS. EITs do not appear automatically in any responsibility. You must set up
responsibility-level access for EITs.
Extra Information types can be created for following

1. Person Extra Information Type

2. Assignment Extra Information Type
3. Organization Extra Information type
4. Location Extra Information type
5. Job Extra Information Type
6. Position Extra Information Type

For example, as per your organization specific need , you want to store some additional information for your employees or your might want to use the EIT on
Assignment to hold information about some project work within an assignment.
