High Level Steps for Initial Configuration

During Initial Configuration, (which you start after you sign up for this service and receive a Welcome email from Oracle Cloud Operations), Implementors perform these tasks in the order listed:

1. Register your transactional data sources (for example, Fusion Applications HCM Cloud, Taleo Cloud), as follows:
   If you are deploying a Fusion Applications HCM Cloud data source, then follow the instructions in Registering a Fusion Applications Data Source.
   If you are deploying a Taleo HCM Cloud data source, then follow the instructions in Registering a Taleo Data Source.
2. If you are deploying FA HCM Release 9.2 Cloud data source, then create a Service Request by following the steps in Creating an SR to Deploy A Fusion HCM Cloud Data Source. Oracle Cloud Operations deploys the required software on your Fusion Applications pod.

   Note:

   If you are deploying a Release 10 Fusion Applications HCM Cloud data source or a Taleo HCM Cloud data source, then you skip this step because an SR is not required.
3. If you are deploying a Fusion Applications HCM Cloud data source (either Release 9.2 or 10), then:
   1. Extract your Cloud data into your Oracle Storage Service (known as a Cloud Extract) by following the steps in Extracting Data Into Your Oracle Cloud Storage Service.
   2. Synchronizing Deletes for the Cloud Extract by following the steps in Synchronizing Deletes In Your Cloud Extract.
4. Enable your Offerings for deployment by following the steps in Enabling Your Offerings For Deployment.
5. Specify Languages and Preferred Currencies for Data Load by following the steps in Specifying Languages and Preferred Currencies.
6. Enable ETL diagnostics and health check email notifications by following the steps in Enabling ETL Diagnostics and Health Check notifications.
7. If you want to analyze data from Fusion Applications Flexfields, then perform the Flexfield integration steps in Setting Up Fusion Applications Flexfields.
