Register the Fusion Applications Source

Register the Oracle Fusion Applications source.

Ensure that the applicable SDS schemas have been created during installation and configuration of Oracle BI Applications. For Oracle Fusion Applications cloud source systems, ensure that you select the Oracle Fusion 11 SDS schema in the Select Components dialog of Oracle Fusion Middleware Repository Creation Utility as seen in the following image:

See Creating Schemas Using Business Analytics Applications Suite RCU

Note:

If you have not created the applicable SDS schemas during installation and configuration of Oracle BI Applications, then you can create them as a post-installation step. See Creating SDS Schema Post Installation

This task is part of the Fusion Applications Cloud Source System Deployment Roadmap.

To Register the Oracle Fusion Applications Source:

  3. Click the Add icon (+) to display the Register Source dialog.
  4. In the Register Source in Configuration Manager page, specify this information:
    • In the Product Line drop-down list, select Oracle Fusion.

    • In the Product Line Version, select the Oracle Fusion version being used.

    • In the Source Instance Name field, specify a unique name to identify the source system.

    • Optionally, in the Description field, enter a short description to help administrators and implementers identify and use this data source in Configuration Manager.

    • In the Data Source Number field, enter an integer or use the spinner to specify a number to identify data in the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse. This number must be unique within Configuration Manager.

    • In the Source Load Technology, select ODI External File to define the cloud adapter mode.

  5. Click Next to display the external file location details.
  6. In the External File Location Details dialog, select the UCM button, specify the following details, then click Save:

It is the last part of the address, after the last forward slash.

    7. Container- Name of the container to upload data to in the storage service. This should be the same container specified in Configuration Manager where the Fusion data source was registered (that is, in Configuration Manager navigate to System Setups\Define Business Intelligence Applications\Source Systems tab.

    Note:

    You can register both Fusion 10 and Fusion 11 with UCM or register both with Cloud Storage Service. If you register Fusion 11 with UCM, you can not register Fusion 10 with Cloud Storage Service. For Fusion, support is provided only for one technology.
