Note:

Many configuration tasks described in this guide require you to manually enter values obtained from querying your source system (for example, Oracle E-Business Suite). These values are unique to your source system and implementation. To retrieve these values successfully, you need to have a good technical understanding of your source system. If you need assistance in obtaining values from your source system, you should consult with someone in your organization who possesses this knowledge, or consult the Oracle Support Services team for your source system. Make sure to check your configuration entries carefully to avoid data loss during the ETL process.
